Please tell me that doesn't mean everyone's going to be playing ****ty mobile games.

The tech isn't ready. All I've heard about it is bad.

DS games are some of the most commonly faked carts these days. The best way to know for sure is to get a look at the board, but popping a DS cart open is a pain because you have to reglue it, and nobody got time for that ****.

Basically, all you can do is hop on Google and cross reference their pics with what the real deal is supposed to look like.

The main tells of a fake DS cart are an incorrect serial number, a wonky label (wrong color, cut poorly, has the UK variant of the seal of quality even though the specific version is supposed to be US), and a poorly sized (or sometimes even straight up misspelled) "Nintendo" on the back.

Once you actually get the game, if you boot it up and you immediately get a message along the lines of "The game will now play", you been duped.

Good luck, bro.

Oh, and Order of Ecclesia is ****ing sick btw.

**** yeah it is. I had a DS for like a week before it crapped out and I never bothered to replace it and Order of Ecclesia was one of the two games I had and I'm super bummed I didn't hang onto it.

Pulled the trigger and got it a few days ago and daaaammmmmnnnn does this game knock. It's light on the exploration but actually can kick your ass, like I've actually died a few times outside of boss fights even with grinding for levels and sometimes an enemy beyond my level just bum rushes me and I scream like a bitch before dying in five seconds. Still not as hard as Medusa Heads from NES Castlevania though. **** that ****.

Alright **** that lighthouse crab piece of ****. I'm way too out of practice playing real video games with real bosses, but he's ****ing dead and watching him get bloodily crushed by an elevator almost made me *** in my sweatpants like a skeevy lapdance.

Omg, I remember that ****. Great fight, but it goes on waaaaayyyy too long, and losing at the last second because of a bad jump is <<<

Oh and btw, I was checking out the DS section in a game store the other day, and right in front was a fake Order of Ecclesia. Made me think of you. :love:
