Street Fighter 3

I'll be damned - look at this:

The guy is clearly a complete tool. How could someone actually believe that this is a genuine cart? This is almost as bad as the confused seller who the other week considered Rival Turf to be the Holy Grail of SNES gaming.

I like to think that whoever fed him the line about the Ninty seal of approval (tm) was winding him up.

I am betting that this is a near-unplayable hacked version full of glitches and similar to the f***ed up version of SF:CE that they used to have in a greasy spoon near where I lived back in the day.

Some people, eh?

He does say later on that it's just a cracked version of SF2...

[Duddyroar]

I HAVE JUST BEEN TO MY LOCAL GAME STATION STORE. THEY ASSURED ME THAT THIS IS A REAL CART AS IT HAS THE NINTENDO SEAL OF APPROVAL ON THE BACK OF THE CART. SO THIS ISNT A BOOT LEG COPY AS I HAD FIRST THOUGHT IT COULD HAVE BEEN. THEY SAID IT IS A RARE JAPAN VERSION OF THE GAME

LOL!

What an idiot.

This has to go down into the history books as one of the best gaming ebay sales ever, I dunno how the seller can go to sleep at night

He actually believes it is a genuine JAP R@RE game. Any idiot can see different but he's allready got bids of over ?50 so what does he care. I'd buy it if I saw it, for about ?2, but no more.

[wheelaa]

So its a dodgy pirate/hack..who cares??

There are loads about and some are pretty decent (I'm thinking more md here tbh though)

[anephric]

It says lower down...


I HAD A CHAT WITH A SNES GAME SELLER ON EBAY THE OTHER DAY. THIS IS WHAT HE THOUGHT BUT WAS NOT SURE AS HE HAD NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE:

It will most likely be a cracked version of SF2 which allows you to do things
which are impossible in the real thing - like throw multiple fireballs at the
same time - whilst jumping!!

There used to be arcade machines that had that cracked version of the game -
don't know if you're old enough to remember them."

Just by him saying "cracked" it must imply he acknowledges it's a bootleg: if not then he really is thick (as he pretty much indicates in the rest of the text).

[E. Randy Dupre]

Lower down than that, in the little Q&A section, he's taken to task by another seller for attempting to pass it off as an official cart, and again admits that it's a bootleg. Only, you've got to log in and go to another page to read that.

And yet he's still left up the bull**** NEW NEWS UPDATE. What a twat. That said, if you're that big of an idiot that you don't read all the available information before you put a bid in, you probably deserve everything you get.

LOL!

What an idiot.

Thing is... IF a games shop actually told him that, then we should all fear for the future of gaming retail :/

I used to work at Gamestation - the guys at my shop were sound, although everyone else in the company doesn't seem to have the slightest ****ing clue about anything games related, let alone retro.
