it's not all about that. if you wasn't sure then it's ok

. but i recommend to everyone who hasen't the possibility to buy an original at the moment, rather get it for free from the net than buy a phoney copy from our chinese pirate friends, which just gives them again futher possibilities to produce more and more of that or some other crap

anyway it's all about a 100% pirate soft and shouldn't be supported by buying it! especially not from purists PC Engine lovers, which we are all in here, i believe

roger and over!

No sane person will ever own an original Sapphire. All these copies do is lower the price of the original, and since I'm not some game broker or some shit I don't care at all about that.

However I can't imagine myself paying good money for a bootleg either. Bootlegs are one thing, but paying bootleggers actual cash...something is messed up about that. With me its either original, or CD-R, and right now my collection is %100 original.

So if these bootlegs are factory made pressed CDs, then does that mean they dont have the same issues as normal CDRs on a real TGCD/Duo.

That's exactly right. These games are more or less identical to the original games, only they aren't original games.

Well then I would definitely see some people picking these up as play copies. I know a lot of people who have a $350 game would be scared of scratching it. Whats another 50 bucks lol But then again, I play what I buy, not so much a collector for preservation but a collector to play.
