*Advice for the future of your games

NEVER buy games from sites, they could be unproperly manufactured, or they could have a problem with them.

Check your cartridge, does it have a see-through green casing? or a Black one? If its not the green, somones been cheatin' ya' money.
 
no its a green catridge its from a site that is trusted. the site is called play.com.
 
so it is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard to go to a shop and buy a pokemon emerald now that is beaing lazy also shops are better than sites
 
yeah their right becuase in a shop you can read the box to see what ur getting
and if something like this does happen you can go back and ask them to look at it
 
and also if you looked at the box and it was normal it is ok but if it haves a darker color change and the little things you see when you move teh box or if it dosent have the starters it is a bad copy
 
actually guys im sorry but i tried another game and the same thing happend so im guessin its my DS, which sucks cause i only had it alittle under a month and bought it from catalogue and they said i would have to pay £30 steaight out for insurance and seems none of my other handhelds have broke i never thought to pay it so im stuck with a DS thats broke:( oh atleats on the brink if that is happening right?
 
It issnt fake because of the green cartridge.
But my brother has the same with EMERALD seem to have more that problem.
Sometimes Emerald issnt just working on DS Lite
 
thanks for your help but maybe it is messing up my ds so from now on i will be playin it on GBA lol:) and i do own a DS lite :)

My own version of Emerald has a see through green casing and I bought it from a national chain store, you may have heard of them... or maybe you havent but its called Wal-Mart. Pokemon has been making their Pokemon Carts. see through for a bit now... least the ones in Canada. My Fire Red,Ruby and Emerald are all see through casing,and all of them operate flawless, and Ive had my Emerald for many months now( I lost my old one but this one looks exactly the same to the last detail) and my Ruby and Fire Red have been flawless for years. My friends Sapp. and Leaf Green is also see through, and we have always bought our games from Zellers(Like Wal-Mart), Wal-Mart, or EB Games(Electronic Bou.).
 
Next time just buy one in a Shop ;)
 
Nope that cart is fake. It doesn't have the ERSB rating on the left and the Nintendo Seal sould be on the right side, and also The Pokemon Company should be on top where it says Nintendo. Also there shouldn't be a CE symbol there as well
 
yep it is fake
 
Hold on here. Are you from europe Molloy because everybody i know in europe has the exact catridge you have, including myself. If you are from europe maybe its different in each country. So i doubt it's fake. Plus i got all my games from very reliable shops.
 
I buy from stores called GameStop, Wal-Mart, EB Games, Target, and places like that (I live in the US)
 
I'm in wales (UK) so. and i dout very much its fake becuase that play site as never let me down before.

there is a CE symbol on it, plus nintendo seal of quality.

i just dout this is fake
