King Of The Monsters 2 & Super Dodge Ball (SNK Neo•Geo MVS): Boot Or No Boot?

[SuperMegaUltra]

The King Of The Monsters 2 (SNK Neo•Geo MVS) cartridge was purchased on eBay. You can view the auction here (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=380115681552). The Super Dodge Ball (SNK Neo•Geo MVS) cartridge was purchased on the Neo-Geo.com (SNK) Neo Selling Forum. You can view the post here (http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=192911).

My suspicions were raised when, upon inspection, I noticed these unusual chips: each with an odd, holographic middle. I've read this is more than likely the sign of a counterfeit SNK Neo•Geo MVS cartridge. Hopefully, I'm wrong; probably, I'm right.

So, boot or no boot?

KOM2 looks good but SDB looks bootish

The KOM2 looks like it was converted possibly from a KOM cart since only the S1 and P1? were changed unless the other chips have the KOM2 number on them.

But ya Super Dodge is of course a boot, I think at $60 that was a give away. That might be even the cart I had back in 2005.

Just reconfirming what the others said; KOM2 looks acceptable; SDB is as fake as Jenna Jamison's tits.
