On this episode, we got our first fake game! I ordered a copy of Pokemon Silver off of GameStop.com for my Gameboy Gallery Collection. But when it came in the mail, it was quickly apparent that it wasn’t the real deal. Thankfully, GameStop had an easy to follow return system (as simple as filing the claim online, printing out the free shipping label to send back to them, and waiting for the authentic copy in the mail).
The process took less than two weeks to do, and we also had to change out the save battery.
Thank you for watching. See y’all in the next one, Lord willin’!
