So I recently managed to get Pokemon Diamond and Pearl new and sealed for fairly cheap (Around $60). I just want to make sure they're not fake. The seller had 100% positives with around 70 transactions and he didn't have multiples of the games, just these two.
Can anyone tell if these are fake or not just from the pictures? I could probably tell in person but are there any obvious signs I'm missing?
Here's my copies I got on release day all those years ago 1/3
Last one.

The easiest way to tell if it's fake or not is to look at the cartridge.
4/3 cartridges
Why the fuck would you buy those games new? You could get both of them used for like $20.
Whoops forgot the pic 4/3
They're real.

Bad experiences buying used so I gave up on that. Also comparing the eBay pictures to >>25372998
makes me think the ones I bought were fake..
Idk if it's the lighting or what, any more thoughts?

I did take the pics with a window on the left and it's like noon here so lots of sun

OP. Why did you buy them new if you were just going to open them?
>>25373354
That's not me. I haven't even gotten the games yet.
Damn son you bought something you could just emulate free
>>25373354
They were mine I got back on launch day from Gamestop for comparison for OP

Looks a little too flat, idk.
they are fine and you're tripping, you can easily tell from the seal. for someone that's paranoid about this you dont seem to know your shit

Not OP but seals can be fake. The cartridge is definitely the best way.

only fake seals are shrink wrap, which is why it sucks that quite a few ds games were released like that (usually cheap ass capcom i think)
Have fun getting HGSS new.

>taking screenshots of pictures that are already on your phone
For what purpose?

How rare is HGSS? I've seen comments about it a lot on this board.

>I can't find my fucking copy
That's something I really love about the DS games having cases.
Before, I'd have to have some storage for Gameboy games, a box or a drawer. And they'd still go missing.
Now I can have them all neatly on a shelf.
>>25378859
The problem is I used to play on my DSi and the cartridge is still inside... So I lost both the console and the game and I am stuck with a shitty Platinum and Black 2... Not to mention how I traded my Ruby, Emerald, Mistery Dungeon 1 when I was a kid like a retard... I regret all my decisions.
>>25373281
Holy fuck you're an idiot. You could buy multiple copies of each game before getting to $60 and surely atleast one of them would work.
I assumed you were buying them sealed to keep as a collection thing, but if you're just getting them to play then you're a fucking muppet mate.

I assume they are screenshots of ebay pictures, not pics he has saved on his phone. No idea if you can save ebay pictures in the app either.
