guitarzombie | 960 Posted January 3, 2024 Share Posted January 3, 2024 You need to show the board and admit it, you never went to Castleton. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14196-is-my-copy-of-link-to-the-past-a-repro/#findComment-390776 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the back, and the dot for the "i" in the Nintendo logo is a square, not a circle, a sign that a cartridge is authentic. I also looked at the pin connector, and it has the product number code. 2 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14196-is-my-copy-of-link-to-the-past-a-repro/#findComment-390777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve caught onto that now and a lot of repros are starting to have the square dot in the i. Also they can do back swaps with a real cart back but the rest is fake. Open up the cart and post board pictures. Someone will be able to help.

I've always had good luck with Amazon, other than that time I ordered a copy of Mortal Kombat 3 and somehow got a copy of Q-Bert III with an MK3 sticker label. 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14196-is-my-copy-of-link-to-the-past-a-repro/#findComment-390786 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegularGuyGamer | 2,094 Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 Game bits are $6 shipped. No reason not to get one if you're concerned about authenticity. https://a.co/d/1uTVT5M 1 Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/14196-is-my-copy-of-link-to-the-past-a-repro/#findComment-393324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
