    I once bought a version of ruby in spain while I was on holliday's and as soon as i played it it said "The save file is currupt". I just played it anyway and finished the game. Then about a year latter i turned it on and it said "the save file has been deleted". I opened it up and the save box thingy was cracked! I could'nt save the game then...has this ever happened to any of you? It realy anoyed me!
    I'm never trusting forign games again!

    It's a fake game.

    The real Ruby cart is a translucent red, most fakes have a grey or black cart, delete themselves randomly, tend to have a poor translation, and give you weird messages when you start up.

    That must suck. That happened to me once. Sort of. My friend gave me a game from thailand and when I got home and tried to play it (PKMN Ruby)
    There was absolutely nothing on it. It wouldn't make the NINTENDO thing appear.

    Man,that sucks.I see what you mean,my brother bought a FireRed on Ebay,but it was bootleg.And when he tried to save,it wouldin't let him.He bought me a LeafGreen from there,but when i got mine,it looked exactly like his(black cart,fake stiker,etc.)But when i saved,it saved like normal.The only thing i don't get was when i pressed select when no key item was registered,a weird text apeared that look like it was for the people testing it.It basicly said something like a test cart and said some date it got produced and then said BETA.I have no idea what it meant,but it still worked like a normal game.

    Well, on our computer my dad dowloaded us FR And LG. The Program has a save option of it's own, so we save there, but when my brother tries to save his FR in-game, it says somthing like 'Please insert the cartrige'. Mine works fine Though.
