I honestly didn't know that there was a market for/of real fake DSes! I guess I missed it among all the Popstations and the [name of terrible, terrible Wii copycat]s.

Uk has a lot fake stuff.
I saw a special on it...

Isn't it obvious what the best way to avoid fake consoles is? Buy a new one from GAME or Gamestation. Simple.

The CBC here in Canada had a big news story/public service announcement warning people about counterfeits. I hadn't ever really thought about it all that much before I saw it, but there really are a lot of counterfeiting operations going on.
