Lemme tell a little story from yesterday.
I went to the Walmart in Indianapolis, and got Captain Toad for my Nintendo Switch from there. (And no, I don't live in Indianapolis so don't try to look for me there ;-;) I went back home to play it, put every time I tried to put it in, it didn't work. I was confused, but I tried again but backwards, and those 2 golden things in the middle fell off. I decided it might be fake, so I compared it to Super Mario Odyssey just to make sure. And I was right, it was fake. And reminder, I got from the capital of Indiana, and it was in the plastic and everything. Nobody in this house knows how it happened.
Also yesterday I made my Step-Brothers look like England from Hetalia-
Yeah, I'm going to ask to make sure it's not fake every time I get a new video game. Probably won't be able to, but I'll still ask.
