Can KLOV Help Put A Stop To Bootleg MVS Cart On its Site
I know there is a Neo Geo forum, but the reality is dozens of Neo Geo MVS carts are sold on here each week. Thousands a year. Could we try and implement some sort of listing policy for MVS carts to keep boots not labeled as such out of the FS threads? Most forums make it against their policy to list bootleg material. ***edit*** I feel like we should at least make it a policy that sellers need to identify their carts as either a boot or not. ***edit***
It takes less than five minutes for a seller to verify a cart. There is even a website to check and see if your carts are in deed authentic SNK carts. It's not difficult, it's four screws, and a weblink. It's either a boot or not. ***edit***Technically the game is the pcb inside not the outer plastic case and I feel as though the buyer should be able to see what they are purchasing. ****edit***
Just because YOU test a boot and works in your machine doesn't mean it will work in all machines. They are notorious for sound glitches, missing levels and frozen screens.
In the last year I have purchase numerous boots from here and have known other who have fallen victim to the same fate. I know a good many sellers are unaware of the situation, but I have also asked plenty of others to verify and they simply refuse.
