GBA was easy, most fake games where USA version's.

The early ones were easy to spot, because they had crappy printed labels.

But as time went on, the labels got better and more accurate. Fake GBAs are still being produced.

And honestly, I'm seeing them come out of sellers from Asia on eBay a whole lot more than the U.S. sellers.

Sorry, i mean that they have a USA label. Not many fakes where printed with the EU label. And that was back in the day..........
