I was looking into buying Gameboy Wars, which is the sequel to Famicom Wars on the Famicom. I came across this wierd tin.

The description says it is Gameboy Wars but it has the Hudson Logo on it and is in a wierd tin. It also has a Super Gameboy logo on it which I find strange. I really want to pick it up since it's new and only $30.

Can anyone clarify as to what I'm looking at here?

Alright I found my answer on Wikipedia, but is this a good deal?

Looks like a bad price. Here's one on Y!J ending in a few hours for 1000 yen:

Even with Rinkya fees that's alot less than $45...

I see. Damn eBay and their overpriced games!

Sadly I can't find it on play-asia or JGS.

P.S. What is the average price for a CIB Gameboy game?

Depends on the game and the store -- maybe 500-2000 yen, 1000 is probably average. Where I shop, at least.

So from $5 to $10. Thanks, I guess I'll know what's high and what's low now.
