Destroyed FireRed?

Ok, so i buyed this game. A Pokemon FireRed. And it was fine and everything until I finished E4 and the Hall of Fame data was corrupted. I could still play it but after a week it stopped working. Whenever I turned it on, it got a glitchy, messed up logo. The Game Boy Advance logo that pops up when turning on the GBA became little squares. This was going on for a few days. I put the game in my DS a while after and then the GBA selection was gone. the only thing it said on the selection screen was: There is a DS Option Pak inserted. So what happened? And what's a DS Option Pak?
 
Sounds like you wasted your money on a counterfeit game. Good work. Either that or the thing just plain crapped out. Either way, it's dead. Get over it and buy a new one.
 
Hi!
Yep,your game's been busted,It happens sometimes for no apparent reason,Maybe try blowing into the cartridge or gently tapping it,Then try to play it again and see if it works.Also,it depends where you bought the game...If you bought it online,using a store like Ebay it is probably counterfeit and you should report the seller too.
See ya.
 
And what's a DS Option Pak?

An example of a DS Option Pack would be the DS Rumble Pack or the Memory Expantion Pak for the DS Browser. It's an add-on for serton games. As for why it would think your Fr is one, the only thing I can thing of is that it might be a fake game.
Where did you buy it?
 
I buyed it in a game shop when I was on vacation. Too bad I can't remember the name on the shop and where it was. Well, the game seems corrupted but I buyed a new one and this one is working so it doesn't seem like I can do anything about it.
