Piracy in San Francisco: Game Boy Advance multicart gallery

This article is over 17 years old and may contain outdated information

After the whole GDC was over I strolled around San Francisco in search of a go board. While wandering around I stumbled upon a shop with a massive supply of pirated Game Boy Advance multicarts sitting in the display counter. Besides having the usual hodgepodge of GBA box art on the cartridges there were some oddities. One cartridge had a picture of “Mario 4” another had Ninja Gaiden’s Xbox art and even stranger was a cartridge with art for Somari, a pirated NES game that has Mario in Sonic the Hedgehog 1.
