A bootleg of MegaMan/RockMan World 5 for the Gameboy vs the real thing. The dead give-away is the blob on top of the IC on the cart on the right. What is also of note is that the cart shell is also slightly too thick. It fits in a standard Gameboy, but will not slide into an Analogue Pocket. Anyways, when I purchased this on ebay originally, it was sold as an authentic cart, and the seller was nice enough to reimburse me with no requirement to ship back.

For whatever reason, I can't add text to the post via the prod version of this app. A comment will have to do.
This bootleg version of Rockman World 5 (on the right, with the glob top on the one chip) is actually a bit thicker than an actual OG GB cart, so while this fits in a real Gameboy, it does not fit in an Analogue Pocket, which has tighter parameters I suppose.
Also note the button pad on the PCB - I wonder what that was for...I tried inserting it into a gameboy without a base and closing the connection while the game was powered, but nothing happens. It was likely a PCB that was also used for a multicart that the user could select games from via a button. Who knows!?
