Nintendo DSi Fake Games Warning

Recallrich

Just to let eveyone who is thinking of buying games from ebay to be aware that Nintendo have been adding security downloads to DSi consloes which stop them playing fake games, which work on a DS or DS Lite. Many Ebay games come from Asia and won't work on a DSi even though they claim to be brand new. If a game really is original it will work on any Nintendo handheld be it DS/DSLite or DSi.

People should'nt buy them anyway as it wrecks the industry but I'm not here to preach! just to advise!!

Also the 100 games on a cartridge you can buy will not work on a DSi 99 times out of a hundred - but I suspect someone will find a way around it (they always do).

I hope this helps and avoids some very unhappy kids on Xmas day

About time One of my biggest bugbears is piracy, especially on games.

Nintendo might have added security on the DSi but I have seen cartridges for sale online made specifically for the DSi that get around the security.
