  • Hello everyone! Nick here with another video of Fake vs Real comparison and this time it is Pikachu Yellow Game. We try to crack down the differences between a fake and authentic copy to make sure you avoid being scammed by sellers trying to sell Fake Pokemon Items as a discounted authentic one. This fake Pokemon Yellow should cost $5 only maybe plus shipping and an authentic Pokemon Yellow costs about $40 to $80 at this time.
    I hope you find this video helpful and if you are looking for other Pokemon Game Authenticity comparisons, kindly check out my channel and remember to leave a LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to my Channel.

    5:49 - The sticker is likely because someone replaced the battery in that copy. It doesn't look like an original battery.

    I just learned this today and I’m glad I did some research. It’s crazy how tons of the ones I saw looks suspiciously cheap and with stock counts going into thousands. The one I bought was with the white E and amounts to 1,999php (40$).

    The fake one usually isn't gonna hold save over a few weeks, not without the battery which is foreseen but not installed. Bit of a scam there, since it appears to work at first but that's just the retained charge in the efficient SRAM IC, it's not going to be retained long term.

    What are the differences between the copies and the originals? Do they play or look different? Are the copies more likely to last longer? I am looking to buy my brother a gift for his birthday, he grew up with these games and still loves them, so any advice would be helpful, thank you. And also interesting video, I will give it a thumbs up.

    • @pokeboy14a
      @pokeboy14a  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      game play theyre all the same. reports that the fake one freezes or reset at times but that could happen for the original too. also when you trade w fake and original, some crazy stuff happens that may destroy both saved files.

      Are you talking about the embossed numbers in the bottom right corner? Cuz I just found one I was thinking about buying but it has those engraved numbers (not 11 though..stamped 00) in the bottom corner and he didn’t say this edition had a code stamped in like some games do…. Could it have been real with the code 00?

    • @skeome
      @skeome ปีที่แล้ว

      @ericapaul7989 The numbers are basically for authenticity and don't really mean much other than possibly the "batch" (00 doesn't necessarily mean it's from the initial release). The number does also tell the version, though. Two numbers means it's a v1.0, with a letter after that if it's a later version. 00 = v1.0, 00A = v1.1, for example.
      If the cartridge doesn't have any numbers strapped into it, it's a fake.

    I found a pokemon yellow cartridge but it does not say "special pikachu edition" on it. I have reason to believe that it was bought in Japan if there wasn't another game released here in the USA without "special pikachu edition" written on it.
