Obviously a pirate cart, but the magnitude of your find is inversely proportional to its cost, which was....?

[nintendan]

The cost was $15.00. It beats spending $40 (Canadian Funds) on Super Mario 3, let alone the other 19 games.
I know it's pirate, but sometimes those are the best finds (especially when you have a long dry spell). Well, yesterday at a flea market, I did find another sweet find (not video game related). It was the entire 66-card set of the 1983 A-Team series by Topps. Sealed too. That was 3 bucks.

Yeah, I've got several of these, though they're BW/Color

You sure that's an Advance cart?

Who's to say you won't find SMB3 and some other games for $5 apiece (or whatever they're going for at your local thrift, in Canadian dollars)? DEFEATISM! LOL

Why do people make new topics for their finds. I can understand stuff spectacular like ahuge lot of games, stadium events, or a huge lot of stuff somebody got for 10 bucks from a freind including bunch of neo geo stuff. I guess if nobody else cares its ok, but Id much rather look through the weekday finds thread unless you have something spectacular that requires many people to post. just an opinion :o

Nice! I'd like to own a GB or SNES pirate cart someday.

[LiquidX01]

Just a dumb question since I dont own anything gameboy, But whats up with the battery slot? Is it for a rumble feature?

[SebasC]

It shaped like Pokemon Pinball for the Gameboy (color) i see :P
With battery slot and all :D Nice :P Tried if there is a rumble feature in it??

[nintendan]

I started my own thread for a reason.. so I could correspond to those that were interested in my find. i don't wanna weed out replies in a different thread.

Yes, I have a GB Player. It's gonna be sweet on it. Do you all know that cool font that says "Game Boy Advance" (you know.. the one that's on all the boxes), well they took that style of font and labeled it with the word "Game". That's why I said it was a GameBoy Advance cart. All I know is that I tested it in my GBA SP and it works.

Also, the rumble thing is untested, as I don't have a single AAA battery lying around.

And how come no one commented on my A-Team card find?? I thought that was a sweet find!!!

I have a multi cart almost exactly like that, same color, same shape, same games, but the writing on mine is chinese; this make sense as it was purchased in Shen Zhen.

Recently in China I picked up some more modern day equivilents, really fun to play NES games on a GBA, but the screen scaling can be rather annoying. Some pirate carts are harder to swap, I picked up a few of games that were new at the time, they look and act almost identical to the real ones (close enough in fact that collectors would be wise to scrutinize even normal GBA carts when buying--even from reputable outlets), but as they were pirated they were practically free!

If you really like playing the old games on the GBA and don't feel like buying the new "classics" series, look into a flash reader for the GBA which will allow you to run roms.
