Customer Reviews
Great cartridge, works awesome, great for doing modern nuzlocke on original hardware!
Good quality! IR / Wifi didn’t work but Union Room battling and trading does! Works just like an authentic cartridge! Will buy from here again.

The cartridge is just a ROM of the actual game, so it isn't authentic if that's what you're looking for, but everything else like trading and mystery gift still work, so if you just need that then this would be a good choice

Very convenient option for people trying to play DS pokemon games without buying a legit copy. I couldn't find a legit copy for less than 5 times the amount of money spent on this one.
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Took a little time for the product to be shipped. But it came and it is great. Fun to play these nostalgic games from growing up and not have to spend 150+ for a copy of the game!
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Amazing product, same as advertised with stellar service and speed to boot! If you're in the market for ds & 3ds games I definitely recommend!
I ordered Pokemon Black and I've passed the 50 hour mark and game has worked perfectly. Great affordable way to enjoy this generation if you're like me and missed it all these years.

I was afraid I wouldn't be able to trade with myself, the entire reason I bought another gen 5 game, with the way game cartridge is. But thankfully I could. I got what I asked for
It was amazing and it came in perfect condition
They all work for me, most repros aren't this good
I was expecting it to be official but other than that it works all the same and is just as fun as I remember
arrived within 5 days of ordering, and is working great so far! thank you!!!
I ordered all 4 games and they came in 5 days later in good condition. It was not the original Nintendo DS Pokémon games but instead a copy of each game was inserted to a fake cartridge. Since the copy of the game was in the cartridge I was still able to play the games I ordered. One game was a hacked version but I could still play it.
Delivered on time game works perfectly already beat it. Great service here.
