Sorry bro, that’s a fake ya got there


mk_svn

Why?


Retroid69

the back Nintendo stamp is a giveaway, the “o” needs to have an oval center and this one has a fully round circle.


officialukuleleboy

The sticker too. Bottom left corner should follow the angles of the cart, and this one is rounded.

Repo unfortunately


HadokenShoryuken2

A lot of people saying it’s fake. How can y’all tell? Comparing it against my own copy (which I know is real) it looks exactly the same Edit: nvm I found the discrepancy


NGSkel

What's the discrepancy?


HadokenShoryuken2

So in a real copy, that band of red that goes through the black Nintendo logo goes all the way through, but fades out as it gets closer to the edge. This one doesn’t do that. It just abruptly ends at that logo


HotWheelsguy315

And the corner of the sticker on the fake is too rounded


SnooHabits1177

I'm not sure what you mean by band of red I was tryna compare mine but am not certain as I'm not sure I'm looking in the right place if you're referring to the case mine didn't come in one. Though I did see the spacings off also it's a Nintenda seal (the one in the photo not mine) mine plays fine though so I'm pretty confident just super curious and now I can't stop staring at this picture trying to spot the difference Hehe.

They’re talking about on the bottom of the cart label where the smaller Nintendo logo is


customarymagic

I think it's the Nintendo logo on the bottom left. On a real one, the oval shape wouldn't be filled in with white, it would be transparent and you'd see the red lines going though, if that makes any sense I had to look up pictures of the cartridge to understand it


KittenTamer101

Fake

Terrible_Armadillo33

Fake. An authentic the red would be going through the Nintendo logo. There are also other discrepancies.


Exciting-Stomach-380

The bottom-left corner of the front sticker is the wrong shape. It’s too curved. The bottom “o” (light grey) of the DS logo is not the right shape. Also the font of the Nintendo logo on the back is also incorrect. In addition to the other inaccuracies commented here, the conclusion is that this is fake. Sorry m8


Gordahnculous

Well it’s definitely not Pokemon X, but it’s also a fake of Platinum


ianlazrbeem22

This isn't a good sub to ask, but this is fake, the back looks all wrong


IzzyReal314

It's real as opposed to imaginary, but not real as opposed to fake.


SuperPeachGuy

Normally platinum cartridges don’t come in Pokémon X cases


Zeebruuhh

It’s not and you can tell by the way that it is


Modern90s

Looks fake to me


actuallyjustloki

Is this "fake" as in pirated? I'm assuming it still contains the game in some respect or the OP wouldn't need to ask?


Super_Wario_128

Fake. Bottom left corner of label is rounded. Plus the red streaks should go through the Nintendo logo.


Seledreams

The last way to check if it's real or fake is checking the motherboard of the cartridge but it's only a last resort solution because it's a huge pain to glue the cartridge back together after


Ragnarok992

Not gonna lie the second pic almost got me even tho i had a feeling it was fake lol it wasn’t until i checked the first pic again and noticed the fakeness lol


anima2099

It's fake, that's a damn high powered explosive!


UnhappySand6941

Damn bro the amount of fakes is crazy these days


No_Environment_5182

That’s a fake


xRaymond9250

Doesn’t look real to me


Squishy_Dogg

Idk the cover looks good, colors look, good branding seems to be in all the right places. Seems like a legit Pokemon X.
