Games/Consoles Ripoffs

Have you ever been ripped off by buying a fake copycat game or console? Or how about you bought a game/console and it didn't contain all the parts or accessories?

Like these cheap ripoffs:

As you can tell, most of these are made by China.

So, beware of false lookalikes.

The wii one is pretty interesting, and is actually pretty decent compared to the others.

The others are horrid and pointless.

I don't think they're trying to fool anyone. People who buy fake consoles do it knowingly and do so because they're ~~asian~~ cheap.

I may or may not own a couple hundred counterfeit GBA games.
