Hard resetting, in short, is turning off the game system and then turning it back on. It is often used when soft resetting is not possible, such as a [[game freeze]]. It is not recommended over soft resetting if soft resetting is possible.

On a Game Boy or Game Boy Advance system, hard resetting will also load the initial boot screen which makes the reset slightly longer.

In speedrunning a hard reset exploit involving the Game Boy Color bootstrap ROM is used for [[RNG abuse]]. The exploit is not emulated correctly for most emulators except for the latest version of BGB.
