theres something I want to discuss, I found out Heart Gold and Soul Silver are one of the most pirated games ever

and every story I researched or video I watched, people said they get their copies from Gamestop

FUCK

yea, we are not trained to keep an eye out for this stuff. at least this intimately

Off the top of my head, this is how you can tell

the engraving on the back isn't that deep on a real copy

the serial number on the motherboard of the cartridge will line up with the ridges

the cartridge has to be black

the font and colors of the label might be off so refer to a real copy found in an image search

also the label itself is a giveaway too, if its too misalligned or cheap looking, its a no go

each cartridge has a little spot barely visible on the top to indicate it has an infrared sensor for the poke walker. Bootleggers can't be bothered to replicate this

then finally

just put it in your 3ds. Apparently 3DSes are good at not playing bootleg crap. Sometimes "better" bootleg stuff will play as a different game entirely on the 3ds.

My copy not only did NOT have a save file on it, which scared me, and it DID freeze a few times, it seems to be running now

I think this passes, but I'll still have to test it with the walker
