My condolences. For people who're not experienced, telling pirated copies apart from the ori copy is difficult. I myself also scared when I buy from shop, dunno how to tell if it's ori or pirate.

Now I very scared. I have a Hamtaro game coming that I bought from eBay (no one told me that they released a new Hamtaro game in English in September? O.o ). Hope it's ori.

Another question tho, did your pirated copy come with a Nintendo Power subscription form ah? All the DS games I bought have a booklet telling me to subscribe to Nintendo Power.
