Thread: Buying 3rd Generation Games

    That is a good idea Sniv. Posting pictures of the real generation 3 games would be helpful to those who are looking for any generation 3 game. People need to be careful because there are fake Pokemon games on amazon.com and ebay. I got a fake Pokemon Emerald game off of amazon.com last month, which I ended up contacting the seller and got a refund. I am glad that the seller on amazon.com was understanding. How I knew the Pokemon Emerald game was fake was because I couldn't migrate Pokemon from the game and the sticker was not holographic. I finally got a real Pokemon Emerald off of ebay, but before placing an offer I asked the seller if the sticker was holographic and the seller said that the sticker was holographic. I was glad that I got the real Pokemon Emerald game.

    The videos I linked should be better than pictures because it shows a real and fake one and compares them, but if you guys want pictures, I can look for some later today

    So hopefully that gives you some clues. However, PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEOS I POSTED. You can't always tell 100% if a game is fake just by the front of the cartridge. About 90% of the times you can, but sometime you have to look at the green exposed chip on the inside of the game, or sometimes even turn it on. So please, watch the video to know what to look for.

    Well it's lucky I got a mate to sell his Pokemon gold for $20. It's great I can trust them
    I hate it when my opponent gets drunk and uses earthquake on pidgeot....and I also hate it when I can't find a jet in Battlefield 3.....
