      Want to play the best version of Bayonetta 1? Buy a Wii U. Want to play literally anything else? Buy anything except a Wii U. You want to play that exclusive Wii U game? No you don't, it's okay at best.

      It is one hundred percent real, and it's delightful. On top of that, though, the company that made the bootleg FF7, Shenzhen Nanjing Technology, also made a port of Pokemon Yellow on the Famicom and a very odd version of Minish Cap that turns the game into a turn-based RPG, among many other games and demakes that I'm not going to mention without turning this post into a wall of text!
      They're still alive to this day, and they're still making bootlegs, although from the look of their website it seems like they've shifted primarily to clone consoles.

    Just here to clarify: The footage of the FFVII Demake is actually a ROM hack of the chinese bootleg that translated it in english and changed the sprites and locations to match FFVII more.
    The ACTUAL bootleg game has lots of weird stuff in it, like candles chandeliers in the reactor you are supposed to bomb in the beginning, is entirely in chinese and the sprites are off (Tifa has blue hair etc)
    I recommend people to check the english translation of the bootleg out. It's legitimately good, unlike the unmodified bootleg that was sold in China.

    But even though I was young, I realized that these were unlike the other cheap knockoffs that I had encountered before. These had actual promotional images, and flyers that they handed out.

In India there are no Nintendo bootlegs so there is no need for Nintendo to worry about loosing the market. And also most of the Indian resellers import Nintendo switch to sell it in India and several Indian gamers/streamers still buy them along with Playstation and Xbox.If they have made some move to enter into Indian market officially they could have competed with Playstation and Xbox in India.
