Is this Metal Slug 2 auction legit?

My Mum always said "If it seems too good to be true then it probably is".

So, anyone know if these MS2 carts are legit and, if so, how did they get so many?

yer, they're decent.

I can't help you about their authenticity because I know nothing about this console or its games, but having those scratches all in the same places on all the carts definitely tells me there's something fishy about it.

Edit:- Well I never. it just seems a bit suspect for all the carts to have them same scratches all over them.

[wheelaa]

A mate got some carts from them, all legit etc so yeah should be cool.

The scratches on the labels are to remove the serial numbers. Back in the day unscrupulous operators would sell on MVS carts they no longer had use for..I say unsrcupulous as they weren't allowed to. So they would remove the serials so that SNK/whoever could not trace the carts back to the operator.

I see...seems feasible & they say you learn something new every day.

They've been selling these, Metal Slug X and Metal Slug 3 for a while now, and the one's I've seen have all been legit - when you get it open it up and have a look at this or this on me site.....

[Kaladron]

Fascinating. Thanks for the info, guys.

Would probably be my favourite Slug if it wasn't for the slowdown.

[Commander Marklar]

Mine too I reckon. The slowdown just allows one to appreciate the fine graphics, what-what.
