Good news for those who missed out on these GBA titles the first time (and time to gripe for those who hate box variants). Nintendo is rereleasing five GBA games later this year, which include Mario Kart Super Circuit, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/Four Swords, Super Mario World, and Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green (sans wireless adaptor, of course).

Excellent, I'll definitely be grabbing Link to the Past and Super Mario World.

These aren't that bad, they have no difference in their side markings so they don't look out of place on a shelf like a PS2 Greatest Hits or Xbox Platinum Hits.

I wonder... when will Nintendo start bringing these Player's Choice titles to Europe? I sure as heck hope it is sooner rather than later. I'd really like to pick up copies of Mario Kart: Super Circuit and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

C'mon, Nintendo - make my day!

Too little too late if you ask me. These games have been out - how long? 2-3 years? Sony is beating them to the punch by offering Wipout Fusion and others for $20 for PSP.
They should have done this like 2 years ago.

Yes I'm sure the crowds are just lining up to pay 20 dollars for blockbuster smash hits like:

Ape Escape: On the Loose
Offroad Fury: Blazin' Trails
Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee
Twisted Metal: Head On
:roll:

Sure Nintendo is releasing these pretty late, but at least they're games WORTH 20 dollars, and since its been a few years since most of these games came out, people who missed the boat the first time around are going to get a chance to own some of the best GBA games out there.

Yeah, but you're forgetting that people still bought these GBA games by the truckload at a $30 price point. It wouldn't make sense to lower the price that much if they were still selling well. As for Sony lowering PSP game prices so quickly, well... look at sales charts and you can kinda see why.

I managed to pick up Yoshi's Island from a UK eBay seller for about £18 I think, which isn't too bad.
