Does this EarthBound Cartridge look Real or fake?
Is this a reproduction Cart or an original cartridge?
Believe it or not, this is actually a reproduction the chip inside is aftermarket, the label is fake and the casing is of a Foot Ball game which is where those screws came from. And no lie I was the one who actually placed the label! The only reasoned I asked this question is to get a good idea of how good of a job I did on this. I originally bought the repro and it came with a crappy Chinese aftermarket casing, but this is the finished result.
It looks nice and it plays well and unlike most reproductions of Earthbound this one has it's anti-piracy removed so the game can be beaten.

It looks real. The screws are right. Nintendo was one of the few companies that used the star screws and you couldn’t find them in stores.
Look at the artwork. Most fakes do a really poor job in the art because they don’t have the machine to press out clean clear artwork. It’s also nicely centered so it looks like it was placed by a machine and not a human.
Have you tried playing it. That’s a good tell tale sign if it’s fake or not. If it runs smoothly and there’s no problem, it’s real.

GOD DAMN! I pray to god there is a viable job for this sort of math. Aside from a Mathematician.
