Does Fake DS Cartridge work on 3DS? Does 3DS read the cart? Is the 3DS foolproof for fake DS Cartridges? Thanks for answering.
Some do and it depends on when they were made and other factors.
I actually ended up with 2 fake Pokemon Platinum from ebay, one actually worked on the 3DS and the other didn't, but did work on the DS. I am not 100% on the technical details since I no longer have the carts and can't check the ROM's on them, but I am guessing it works on the same level as flashcarts.
Nope and that really shouldn't be a worry because it's extremely doubtful something like that would happen. Both came in fake cases, the stickers were faded, and one used a completely different icon.Does that brick your 3DS? I don't have custom firmware btw. And how did you know that it is fake?
icon like in game menu or icon of the sticker on the cart itself lilith?Nope and that really shouldn't be a worry because it's extremely doubtful something like that would happen. Both came in fake cases, the stickers were faded, and one used a completely different icon.
Game icon when put into the system. I don't remember what the icon was, but it wasn't Pokemon Plat.icon like in game menu or icon of the sticker on the cart itself lilith?

I would like to add one more note, the one with a different icon would not work on my 3DS. The one with the Pokemon Plat icon did work on my 3DS. Both of them worked on my DS Lite, but both of them would fail at saving the game.
Moral of the story, don't buy games off ebay.
I had a game that simply didn't show up in the menu. Worked fine on a dslite though.
I had a fake copy of NSMB and the 3DS refused ro read it but my DSi did read it and gave me an error everytime i launched it lucky i was able to refund it
Fake carts aren’t an issue for me now as i own an R4Is your 3DS have the latest firmware by that time?

Yeah. That is what I see at other forums. Hope my 3DS won't read fake DS Carts too.
I didn't pay for them, my ex did and he bought 2 from a seller (one for me and one for him,) but his got to him first, he realized they were fake and cancelled the order. Mine ended up getting to me anyways and he got his refund. About a week later though a second one ended up in my mailbox. So I ended up with two fake copies of Pokemon Plat to fuck around with until I got bored and tossed them. I think they were about 20$ and I didn't return them.How much did you pay for it? Did you return it?
Oh yes i paid £10 for NSMB (the fake) turned out the seller didn’t even know it was fake and refunded it without any issuesIs your 3DS have the latest firmware by that time?

I didn’t even buy the fake NSMB off eBay i bought it from a flea marketMoral of the story, Is do buy off eBay but do your research.
To be fair, it was my ex who didn't do the research. I was perfectly happy with my M3 Real and my Plat ROM.Moral of the story, Is do buy off eBay but do your research.
