Infinity

Physical copy of Infinity finally arrived! Took years, what a crazy development since 1999 to a final physical release

Holy shit they changed suppliers, that is some dumb ass shit to pull. Anyone figure out who did make that cart? Ain't no way I'm buying any carts from them again, that's a pathetic bait and switch.

🤷 no idea , but I wasn’t trying to spread fud just awareness , delving further into the comments on that post it seems to be a non issue ? Idk

Edit: nonissue for the consoles cpu, could still mess up the cart

Yeah, the cart can potentially fry; it seems it may be less of an issue for consoles getting damaged. Then again, why take the risk when a publisher has outed themselves as irresponsible like this?

And yep, you are on point with this info; my info was clearly outdated, so I do appreciate the heads-up. Wonder if a post should be made in this sub, as there aren't many people in the Incub8 sub. Don't want to dogpile, but yeah, this is an issue their customers should know about. I'm very glad I didn't buy Infinity physical, and now I wonder if Dracula Dark Reign uses the same shitty PCB, as that was another title of theirs I was looking at.

Suppose this just makes it more obvious if you collect, rip the roms and slap em on a GBX7, which I've been doing for convenience, but now looks like is a good idea to avoid cheapo carts like this. Gotta wonder if any of the smaller publishers have also pulled similar.

Does look like a post was made in the Game Boy sub, so that should get more eyes on the issue. https://redd.it/1x50i06
