GBA Super Mario Bros Classic... Rare?

Super Mario Bros GBA

Was doing a search for the 20th anniversary game boy micro on eBay and accidenly came across this Super Mario Bros game going for $55.00 There are several "completed" auctions, going from high $30.00's to low $60.00's.

Just wondering, is this game hard to come by now? I purchased this one when I got my retro GBA the day it came out, but have since (a few months after release) seen the games drop to $15.00 new at best buy/wal-mart etc. I havent been looking lately for them, but I'll make sure and look double close next time I go shopping for some of em

Wow, there was a loose cart that sold for $42. There must be something up with that game that we don't know about. Seems like I see most places overflowing with stock on the GBA classic titles, will keep my eye out for SMBs.

Damn I had it sealed but I tought it would be never rare so I opened it after a few months .

I've been wanting to pick it up since I got a GBA, but haven't been able to find it anywhere (and we're talking multiple states here people ). It's at least uncommon in this region

I had the same problem with Excitebike. I was looking for it for months, and it wsa the last game I needed to complete the set. So last may i went to New York City, and found the last copy they had at the Toys 'R Us store. A great day to say the least.

They've been out of print for a while now thats the reason why. I tried looking for them for months now and no luck locally.

Guess i am lucky I bought mine when i bought my NES GBA, both the same day, the day the NES GBA came out.

[Mattiekrome]

Just checked both the wal-mart and best buy, and neither of them had ANY classic GBA releases. :/

Usually I'm able to find Super Mario 3 both new and used by the assload, and Zelda. So far, I haven't come across either Excitebike or Super Mario Bros.

my Best Buy still has a couple dozen GBA classics. Some Ice Climbers, Xevious.

Out of the classic series only SMB is worth anything.

Ha Ha that is funny. In my area Target had them for 9.99 for the longest time, couldn't get rid of them. Now when I want one I cannot find one, and I sure as hell ain't going to pay 50 bucks for one. I guess I will keep on looking.
