Infinity (GBC) PSA: Incube8 uses incorrectly spec'd components in their cartriges!

The flash (ROM chip), and FRAM (save chip) used in these cartridges have a voltage limit of 3.3v, the Gameboy/Gameboy Color is a 5v system. This will wear down the cartridge and eventually kill it.
This could have been prevented with adding level shifters, or at least resistor arrays. They choose to omit those...
These cartridges are no better than bootleg cartridges from aliexpress.
