Where as I think the facts repros can be easily made nowadays is fantasic...
Doesnt it raise a little worry with anyone?

Some of these repros are made to such a high standard, its hard to tell the two apart. Good right? Well maybe for a fan translation cart or a unreleased prototype.
But how long is it till perfect replicas of games such as StarFox Super Weekend Cartridge, Exertainment Mountain Bike Rally/Speed Racer, Aero Fighters and Chavez II start hitting the auction and sale sites?

If the labels are done so well, how on earth would you be able to tell the difference in a small gallery picture? And whats to say you wont know the difference once it arrives?

Its just worrying as I know out there are a few villians who try to cash in on us collectors. Weve all read about the various scams we have all suffered. Ive suffered some myself, one involving empty dvd cases with sega saturn covers printed out into them. Comparing a large bundle of those printed DVD cases to the PAL cases in a small gallery picture was near impossible. So how on earth will we be able to spot a repro of an expensive game nowadays?

The only way you could tell would be to open the cart and see how the chips are connected. I would never think to open up a cartridge to check I have the real deal as id be sat for a long time.


And I think the last thought I should leave you with is...
Think twice when a Gold NWC cart hits the net!
