Curse of the Obviously Haunted Cartridge

Greetings. My name is Johnathon. I know, I know, it's a boring name, but that's what it is. I'm writing here today because something... peculiar happened, and I think this is the only place that'll help.
You see, when I was a kid, there was this game I loved to play. Like, all the time. It was called Rugrace, and it was essentially one of those cart racing games that popped up around the 2000s. Your goal in it was to beat everyone else in a race on a magic carpet that can occasionally grab power-ups to pull you ahead. Yeah. It was that shameless. Nevertheless, I loved it. I even went as my favorite character, Abdallah, for Halloween five years in a row, and I only stopped because I was forced out of it by my mom.
Point is, I loved this game, and was feeling nostalgic for it. One day, I went on eBay and looked up "Rugrace cartridge for Gameware". I didn't really expect any results, but figured I'd at least try. There was one result. Free. The photo for the item showed a blank gray cartridge with "Do not play unless you want to slowly and painfully die a horrible and agonizing death you fucking idiot" scribbled on the front in black sharpie. I thought to myself how strange it was that this man would write such a long run-on sentence, but continued still.
Going onto the page for the item, I saw that it had been up since 2007. This guy really wanted to get rid of the cartridge, huh? I messaged him, offering to take the game off his hands. His reply was equally as strange as I predicted it would be.
He said: "Really? Are you sure?"
I responded: "Yes."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure?"
"Give me the goddamn cartridge already."
"Okay. Just, be careful."
Paying no heed to his warning, I leaned back in my chair and waited for the package to arrive.
Two days later, it came. I ran to the front door and grabbed a shockingly large brown cardboard box with "You're fucked, dude" written on the top. I tore open the package like a chimpanzee to a person's rib cage and groped the beautiful gray rectangle I had waited so long for.
I then went to the fridge and drank an entire gallon of water, and ate fifteen packages of Hot Pockets, as I hadn't done either for two days.
After my recuperation, I got out the Gameware I had kept for twenty years and inserted the cartridge. It took approximately half a minute to load up, and instead of the normal Mareway logo showing up, there was a distorted sign saying "We are in Hell". Huh. The title screen was nothing to talk about. I never noticed a red mist covering the town of Albaka as a kid, nor did I notice that King Gaeri's eyes were completely black with red pupils. It's strange that they put this in a kid's game, it was kind of eerie. Hitting enter, instead of the normal sound playing, a horrible shriek far beyond the capabilities of the Gameware emitted itself. That was different. Finally, I got to the Character Select screen. That's when I noticed it.
The arrow was blue. It's supposed to be orange, but it's blue. It was then that I realized that something about this copy of the game was terribly wrong. Audibly saying "Nope", I grabbed the cartridge out of the slot and turned the Gameware off. Getting up and going to the kitchen, I grabbed a knife out of a drawer and cut the cartridge in half. I then took a little and burned it to ashes in the confines of a bucket. That game was demonic, and unnatural. I couldn't let it hurt anyone else.
Anyways, that brings me to my question; do any of you know how to emulate Gameware games?
