Fake or Real?

[darko]

I've been messing around with some replacement covers for several of my Genesis games. Can you tell which ones are replacements and which are real? Also, what set them off (if you can tell).

I'm not ever going to pawn something off as legit if it's not, this is just turning into a hobby for me after messing around with the covers for my GBA games. It makes my games look much nicer on the shelf!

That Phantasy Star Hint Book is so totally real. 

[darko]

Ha...that's true. That reminds me that I need to track down a Sword of Vermillion hint book as well.

All of it's fake! And EMPTY!

Yeah, you can't comment sir. You know at least one of them.

I'll put my castlevania chops on the line and say that I know that Castlevania: Bloodlines is real. I believe you snagged it from Soera a little while ago and posted it in the added to collection thread. Ha

[darko]

Well thank you Scott for reminding me to hide my notes as that would give some of them away in a heartbeat.

[scott]

Ha funny thing is, I didn't even snoop your notes.

1. Sonic Spinball
2. Beyond Oasis
3. Shining Force

I can tell by the pixels.

One of those is a fake.

I’m going to go with Sonic Spinball because it doesn’t have the candy cane stripping and the tiny writing at the bottom of the spine like Beyond Oasis and Castlevania  and the Sonic Spinball title isn’t centered on the spine.

I wish I could second this. But when I got Sonic Spinball, it came bundled in with my Genesis. So I never had the case...

I'm just going to let you guys keep guessing. I'll spill the beans in a few days.

Im going to take a guess and say ....

Yeah, consider yourself in the same boat as bretty.
