It looks like 6 instead of G to me, so yeah the Speedy Gonzales hack. :\[/quote]That actually is a G; for some reason Sonic Blast for the Game Gear was called G Sonic in Japan. Pirates like using that art for whatever reason.

A 32 in 1 for the Game Boy Colour which apparently has Pokémon Crystal (although it's probably a hack of something else), Rockman X (Probably supposed to be Rocman X) and a hack of Super Mario Land.[/quote]:o It has Kureyon Shin Shan 6, just like a multi I own! :P
If you're wondering what it is, it's actually a hack of a hello kitty columns clone..

I'm sure Pokemon Crystal is Pokemon Crystal..  I dunno why they'd hack something else and call it that when they could just use the real thing. Same for Rockman X, the actual Rockman X is far more common on GBC multicarts than Rocman X is.

THIS.. MUST.. BE.. DUMPED! I could try ;)
I have some programming skills so if the normal GBA Backup Tool doesn't work, I can just mod it to force a dump.

And yea, just leave it to me, unless you're gonna be selfish and not get a dump. :P

Actually bid all ya want, I cba to waste my money, as I got Rayman IV(?)
 :P

Never mind I thought it was rayman iv but it was a generic :X

Not very interesting 188 in 1, but anyone know what that thing is in the top right? :)

It's just a cheat device.  The auction title, despite the description translating it as a "cheat" calls it "goldfinger". :huh:

This gameboy multi cart says it has star wars on it.

Found a gowin title in this auction not sure which one it is. http://goods.ruten.com.tw/item/show?21109271372971

And something really strange. Pocket monster go go 2?! I'd really like to keep this to myself right now so I'll post an image. How selfish of me :P

It's a hack of Kirby's Dream Land 2... I've never seen it in action  but there are scans of the manual here: http://www.ffufi.net/pokemon/Fakes_gogogo2.html

Also, in the far lower right is Vast Fame's Super Fighter S. And two Sintax games that are so blurry I can't make out what they are, other than that they definitely have a Sintax logo on them.

Also, eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed that the cartridge mould looks quite a bit like Vast Fame's early carts (such as the above-mentioned Super Fighter S!), and it has the same "compatible with NEW GAME" burst at the bottom seen on many V.Fame carts. This is likely not a coincidence.

Oh, and I recognize Pokemon Go Go 2!  I remember owning a complete copy of the first game a while back that had those games' screenshots on the back of the box.  I didn't realize that it was a real game and not a photoshop.

Edit: Oh, duh, that's one of the two Sintax games I mentioned above! Somehow I didn't notice the "ACT" yesterday, though. So either it's not Sapphire, or Sintax is lying about it not being a strategy game (not the first time I've seen that; I think I've seen platformers mis-labeled as RPGs before).

Oh I have that! I got it, like, last week. It's called Pokemon Platinum (in Chinese) but it was released in 2004, long before there was ever such a thing officially. It's a platform game - you can play as Psyduck, Pichu, Abra or Flareon and the all have basically the same projectile attack with different graphics. It's not too bad as far as later Sintax games go, although the slightly-odd jumping physics can lead to missed platforms and swearing and such, and I may or may not be missing some hidden depths here - you have an MP gauge and there are these icons on the status bar but I can't figure out how to do anything with either of them. Oh yeah and the music is from Lemmings again.
...Okay and I just completed it. The final (and only) boss is an Electabuzz. And if the MP bar and icons do anything I never needed them. There's also a scroll you can pick up in each level which serves no apparent purpose, and may or may not be related to the other things - maybe they're all remnants of some unfinished special attack feature that Sintax never bothered to remove. Or maybe I just haven't figured out how to use it yet.
