I'll give you one case of NTFS being irrecoverable with built-in Microsoft Tools. Do you remember when Vista SP1 was bricking computers? That was caused by an error in the CLFS that was not repairable by any Microsoft computer, XP and below didn't know there was a problem and Vista BSoD (0xC1F5) when attempting to mount the drive.

The fix? You had to mount the drive using ntfs-3g on a *nix box and delete the contents of the \$Extend\$RmMetadata\$TxfLog directory. GG MS. Took me HOURS to figure that one out. :P

Those with long enough memories to remember the Game Genie may remember that Galoob got out of the game enhancer business long before the DMCA was passed.

However, the continued existence of the makers of the Game Shark would seem to indicate that such devices are either not in violation of the DMCA or the game makers, quite reasonably, don't consider the devices a threat to their sales.
