They're probably in jail for producing illegal stuff.  As they should be  ;D

Never bought any games from them, but did get some awesome custom cart labels printed up there.  Last one was about three months ago.  Nevere had any issues with messages being ignored, but it did take a while to get back to me sometimes.  From what I gather, it's a one man operation who does it in his spare time.

You're out of your mind if you seriously think that everyone who wants a repro should buy an eeprom writer and learn the necessary soldiering skills. Do you even realize how much one of those things costs?

It's still a fucked up thing to wish on someone who's done zero harm to you or anyone else.

And again, saying you hate repros won't stop Nintendo from shutting this place down if they want to. You're not a hero.

Repo DK games do harm Nintendo, they steal a copyrighted character.  And Yes I am a hero... A Super Hero  ;D

No more criminal than retrozone, a reproduction site you seem to like. Shitty service isn't enough reason to hope someone goes to jail.

I wouldnt recommend purchasing any games from gamereproductions.com. I ordered an Earthbound Zero cart from him a while back and it took months for it to arrive to my house even with all the emails I kept sending him.

His service sucks but I certainly dont wish for him to go to jail.

I would say go with another repro maker, there are so many better ones out there. The OCDgamer at Nintendoage is waaaay better, I got FF2, FF3 and sweet home from him for a great deal. He is good with getting back to you right away, very friendly, ships out quickly and makes professional looking carts. Definitely planing on doing business with him again in the future.

Who are repros hurting and how?  That's what I want to hear from the haters. 

It's not like these titles are, or were ever available in the modified state that they are being sold in.  If Nintendo were to produce them, then that's what we'd all be buying, not repros. 

Is it technically illegal? Yes.  Is it taking money out of anyone's pocket?  No, not in any way that I can think of.
