    Personally I have no idea. Admittedly I don't collect for Game Boy very avidly.

    and, it's now 8 years later and I also just found a StarHawk and have no idea what region it's from but it's not the one in the Digital Press Online Rarity Guide because the model number is different. It works great in my original Glacier GBA system.

    Here is the model number of the one I have: DMG-WK-GPS

    I can get a pic up if I get one taken, resized and all that. What is up with this game? Rarity? Value? Thanks for any help because I don't need it, I'm going to sell it whether it be on ebay or on a forum like AtariAge, NintendoAge or here.

    Here is a pic, I hope it's not too small. I can take another, this was taken from a group of GB games that I had.

    GPS must be a region I have not even heard of.
    The ones I have heard of are JPN, USA, CAN, EUR, UKV/GBR, EEC, ESP, FRA, NOE/FRG, SCN, ITA, AUS, HKG, ASI.

    Yeah, it is very odd. You think it is an import from Accolade? Here is the information I found, it did have a USA release date:

    Starhawk (GB)
    Release Region: United States
    Release Date: December 31, 1992
    Publisher: Accolade - MSRP: $27.99

    I found another "GPS" region game.
    Here's a "GPS" Rad Racer NES cart. Assuming the cart came from the same box pictured, it'd be from Spain. (though I thought most Spanish releases had "Version Espana" written on the label as well)

    According to user jajaja over at NintendoAGE "the GPS code was a universal code that was released at the end of the NES era."

    More specific info here:

    Personally I wouldn't call it rare, as it's more of a late production label variant.
