Can any GBA games be considered rare yet
Hard to find maybe, but not "TEH RARE!"

hmmmm never spotted double dragon in the wild
U GAIZ JUST DONT LIKE CHANGE , (builds a artificial foundation here)
Mech Platoon was a pain in the arse to find. I went nuts finding that one for my brother.
I also think Car Battler Joe, Klonoa: Empire of Dreams, Lunar legend, Ninja Five-O, Robopon 2, and Urban yeti are pains to find.
I also remember seeing a strange game called "Santa claus saves the Earth" once at my local TRU. I shoulda bought it!
There was this Canadian company making their own RPG awhile back. Last I heard they had finished the game and were looking for a publisher. If the game does come out I would imagine it to be rare if not uncommon. If it doesn't come out then there would still be a nice little proto-type floating around in the future.
Wish I could remember the name of the game... it looked damn spiffy too. Something like Black Sword or something.

Tiny Toon Adventure's: Buster's Bad Dream. (And pretty much Treasure's too)
Never seen one in stores and only few online retailers have this in stock.
Treasure + PAL exclusive + poor sales = get it while you can.
I saw that at my TRU last week also. The GBA logo on the left side of the box looked slightly different, and when I turned the box over the game description on the back was written in several languages. It seems this game is a European release. How could a game like that find its way into an American TRU?I also remember seeing a strange game called "Santa claus saves the Earth" once at my local TRU.

Not neccesarly rare, but there are three games that can only be bought at Wal Mart. Those three are well known web games.

Super Collapse 2
Bookworm
19.99 each, get them while you can.
I know what you're talking about...those guys were a small, 3-man team making an RPG-esque top-down game with good-looking graphics. The story seemed pretty trite, though.Originally Posted by Daria
It'll probably be rare, yeah.
You are startled by a grim snarl. Before you, you see 1 Red dragon. Will your stalwart band choose to (F)ight or (R)un?
If people are still looking for Ninja Five-0, I suggest trying your local Sam's Club. After snagging the last new copy from EBWorld over the summer last year, I thought I would never see the game again. But then about 2 months ago, my Sam's Club was flooded with about 40 of them for $13 a pop, along with Lady Sia. Of course, I haven't been there in over a month, so I don't know if they still have them. But if you've got a membership, I suggest stopping by and checking it out.
i second circuit city - they don't seem to completely turn their inventory over every couple weeks like best buy, and consequently, things are on the shelves a lot longer.
there are about 3 copies of megaman & bass at the one near me. and you can still find stuff like MDK2/F355 challenge for the PS2 on the shelves...
Anyone seen the 2D weapons fighter similar, but not comparable, to Samurai Shodown? It's called Dual Blades. I saw it only once, failed to pick it up, wish I did now. It boasted being the only weapons fighter available for the GBA.

Sega Arcade Gallery used to be quite rare. It was sold out everywhere and copies on eBay were going for 39.95-$44.95. Amazon shops were offering it in the same price range.
Since then, it has been reprinted and I have seen it for sale in several shops for $19.95 and on ebay for the same price.
Regarding Japanese GBA releases, "Bubble Bobble: Old and New" is very tough to acquire at this point.
Since when did Backyard Baseball and Backyard Football become so rare?

Luckily the Circuit City in Bellingham had one of each left.
I dont think Wario 4 is that hard to find....
If it is i'll hit myself for losing it.
The only GBA game that comes to mind that I would really like to have but have never seen for sale locally is Puyo Pop.
Shining Soul II is out and I have it on my shelf. It was released two weeks ago. I bought mine from a Game Crazy... Double Dragon is not rare. I see it everywhere up here. I know of two stores that have it in stock. Lunar Legend is uncommon, but not really rare. Much harder to find boxed. I have to say that I sense that it matters on where you live, becuase up here, Ninja Five o and Doom are a myth.....you dont find them. My vote would be for not only Ninja Five O but for the first Shining Soul.....evil to find.

I second Castlevania H o D
what about the Wal-Mart version of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3......this is the version that comes with 7 e-reader cards instead of the normal version found at all other stores which only had 2 e-reader cards

must have been for reservations only then. i bought mine there and it only came with 2 cards ;_;Originally Posted by tholly
I have no problem finding Shining Soul, it's just spendy here. I haven't looked now, but Shining Soul 2 is still on the shelves. River City Ransom EX is ALREADY getting hard to find and it's been out what...a month?
The ones I had the worst time finding are:
CIMA: The Enemy
Car Battler Joe (I'm looking for a spare sealed one cheap!)
NInja Five-O
ZOE: Fist of Mars
I've recently procured a CIMA for myself (FINALLY). I'm STILL looking for Shining Force....need one bad. As for the other stuff listed, I've NEVER seen the AIA games...those and Car Battler Joe were not released in Canada I think. Never seen Urban Yeti either. I wanted to get the Bookworm and the other games, but I can't find em either. Had no trouble with the Breath of Fires and Lufias and Lunars. All simple to find here.....just don't WANT em
I also had no trouble getting any Castlevanias. But they may becomes scarcer later. Still hunting for Klonoa: Empire of Dreams as well. *sigh*
