Well that happened quite a lot.

My god-cousin worked at a movie/game rental place a few years back, and lots of people would just change the sticker and keep another game. Like I forgot.. I think it was Contra III that was on the Super Tecmo Football cartidge I got from him.

Yeah, I did that with NHL '95 once for my Genesis. See, my NHL '95 wouldn't save, so we decided to rent another one and we figured we just be able to switch them and it would be fine. Problem was that the video store puts a sticker on the games, just so people can't do what we were going to do. Anyway, we had to slowly but surely peel the sticker off and put it onto the other cartridge. It took forever, but we never get caught.

The saddest part about that story is that the video store's NHL '95 was flawed too. If you obtained more than 60 some wins in a season, it would put you into last place in the standings...So, all that work for not much.

My brother found a copy of Madden 2003 for PS2 on the street. The game didnt funcion. So we rented it from Rogers, and just wrote the same number on it in indellable black pen. We are clever.

I know (well I didn't know it happened a lot, but it was just obvious someone switched the labels cause the label was actually coming off the top of the cartridge in the first place), I was just trying to make a mountain out of a molehill...
