So admittedly I bought all of these off eBay having done zero research. They’re all bootleg? If so, the physical quality is very good, but it could explain why Link’s Awakening won’t keep a save.
Comment on Only ever played OOoT, MM, and WW. Just ordered an Analogue Pocket. Suggest an order.

Yes they all look bootleg to me. If you compare the sticker online you will most like find subtle differences. You can also open the case and look at the board which will tell you for sure if they are real or not.
Also Links Awaking and both Oracle games never released on GBA they are all GB/GBC games.
Links Awaking had two releases. The original Links Awaking is a GB game for the original Gameboy and Links Awaking DX is a game for the GBC with extra features and colour support.

Whelp kicked off an eBay return. Thanks all for the advice. $60 for 5 original games was definitely too good to be true.

I think they trick the GBA into thinking it’s a GB cartridge (it has a built-in GBC “emulator”).

Perhaps but they are definitely not official cartridges.
