Here's something that popped up in my Ebay browsing today: Ebay URL That Is Really Long.

I didn't know or think unofficial 3DS carts were being made yet. Is this just a Sky3DS cart being painted and resold as a 9-in-1 thing or what's going on with this?

Thanks.

I literally don't know what cart that is but I am willing to bet the ROMs will most likely get you banned the second you launch them. Products like these are always the cheapest cart, with the cheatest microSD card, and set up in the cheapest way possible.

It's definitely a flashcart of some sort, there appears to be a microSD slot (purple) on the side.

There's 2 buttons (red) which would indicate that it's a Sky3DS+, but they're in the wrong spot. Actual Sky3DS+ has them in the blue spot.

I'm guessing it's an unknown Sky3DS+ clone.

Guess we will see a lot more of these in the future. For DS games it is very common to have 547-in-1 (random three digit number in one) flashcarts with taped in µSD. Nobody seems to care which means eBay is full of these and they don't get taken down.
The high price and the inconvenience with the game switching by physical switches limits the usefulness of 3DS "game collections" (can't include 500 ROMs that can only be selected with two buttons ←→)

@zoogie mentioned a thing like this a while ago in a status message.

You can shorten that URL by cutting off everything starting with the "?" after the number https://www.ebay.com/itm/<number> is enough. Everything afterwards is just tracking nonsense (or whatever).

I get the feeling this is just a relabeled, used Stargate w/roms. The button location and color seems to match Stargate.
The sticker (and boxsleeve) looks homemade with scissors, lol.

    @UltraHurricane,
    cuz lets be real here - we haven't had anything close to Myst since, and in action games, seeing 1 or 10 blades of grass it its ass hairs does little when your character is dashing on a horse or you're racing at 170mph+ in a car
