Is Your Pokemon Game Real or Authentic? How to Spot a Fake Pokemon LeafGreen for GameBoy Advance.

Hello Everyone! Here is the last Pokemon Gameboy Advance Game from the main series that were often sold as Authentic but is actually fake or reproduction. This Fake Pokemon Game costs about 5$ retail and scammer sellers usually sells it for $30-50 as it is still cheaper than an authentic Pokemon Leaf Green which sells for around $80-100 at this time.

I hope you find this video informative and may help you prevent getting scammed thinking you have a good Pokemon Game in you collection but in reality is a fake that should really never go up in value.

I was about to buy leaf green version on Etsy, and by this video, it looks same as the fake one you pointed out here. It’s pretty disappointing people are selling fake ones… you saved me from falling for a fake so cheers!

I was really get scared when you were comparing them, until you showed and said that there are 2 types of authentic when it shows the year of the game being made. Thank you for making this video you really help everyone that are uneasy about buying old pokemon games.

Had me so scared until you pulled out the second version which is the one I have xD. Great video was very helpful.

after seeing they are fakes i realized how much money could be made from doing somthing like this, buy a few boards for how ever much, dump the roms on them then sell them in bundles so you can reasonable ask for a higher price.

it's still ashame that we over price our old games as if their is only a few left, makes it hurt worse for all the game's lost over the years due to moving yourself or other things

great video brother. got an authentic copy for $75 from a local seller.

I love how the title says “is your copy of leaf green real or real?” Just worded differently😂

[elchuy]

You scared me for a second with the year inside geez mines missing the label so you definitely helped me out

[pengmi]

[padaga]

Years ago my cousin found a leaf green copy on a parking lot and gave it to me ! So I'm happy it's a legit copy ! The only diferences are there is the number "1" instead of "MB" and the sticker is the french version.

One thing I also notice about the authentic gba Pokémon games is that if you look at the front of the cartridge where it says gameboy advance you can see a small silver or white-ish circle, that is the screw showing and it is actually visible on all authentic games

thanks a ton! buying carts online can always be challenging.

The fake Nintendo logo on the circuit board looks completely different but most online places won’t have a clear photo.

Also, the screws can turn color with age, depending on how it was stored and the environment the user has it in.

They missed a bit of paint between the L and E in leaf

[caleblafrombois]

Liked and subscribed thanks I'm about to buy a bunch of Pokemon games and needed a heads up

[okdude]

So if leaf green doesn’t have the white circle around the Nintendo on the board, it’s not real? Because I’ve seen a bunch without it, but some with it.

[ohshucks]

I have leaf green and emerald authentic . Plays well. Cartridge in fair condition

[psychonerd]

there is a very late production with much lighter text on the maskrom chip and a much smaller flash memory chip that's unbranded
it's probably the player's choice edition, which means it should share all the text (including on the maskrom chip, AGB-BPRE/BPGE-0) with version 1.1
