    Depends on how well the reproduction is made?

    Anyone can gut a cart and flash some eproms.

    The funny part that these carts were very popular back then, but now they aren't a lot of them.
    I think the cost is between $50 to $75...
    Could you send some photos of the cart and the goodies inside for verifying that it's an "original" fake or an homebrew? :3

    A pic would help. Personally I think the only ones with any real value are these two:

    The other more common carts use the cover art for the final release of Sonic 2, often discolored, and were clearly made after the game was released. I think the two in the pic above are from before the game was officially released, making them more novelties in that respect. But that's just my guess.

    Are you the same guy who posted about this on SEGA-16.com? If so, you bought yourself a $150 repro of lousy quality. Could have gotten a Mega Everdrive for that price.

    Greg2600 > I'm not that guy, I got this cart years ago with an exchange. Good to know that someone bought one similar to mine for $150! Would you mind posting the link of that thread so I can check it?
