heads up: FYE still sells New GBA games

Post by noiseredux »

new as in Not Used. Anyway, I was browsing FYE recently when my wife was checking out some clothes, and underneath their DS games there was a shelf of brand new GBA games. I couldn't believe it. Maybe 30 of them. Prices were $4.99-$7.99 which is damn good considering they aren't just the cart-only's we're used to seeing in the wild. Just a heads-up for any other GBA collectors.

What's the area, and what were some of the titles on thee shelf!?

I'm crazy for GBA, but we never get any good/uncommon stuff in at my GS anymore.

southcoast MA. Um let me think. I know I saw quite a few copies of Konami Arcade Advance. Which I would've snatched if I didn't already own it. They had a several different Mega Man Battle Networks. And to be honest, I'm blanking on most everything else. I already owned anything I would've wanted.

Yeah, I've noticed this at an FYE in my area - they still sell sealed GBA games, but last time I checked, all that's left now are a whole bunch of sports games and crappy cartoon licensed games (Spongebob, Dora the Explorer, etc.)
