It's funny that VI Advance goes for the most of the GBAers being that it's the worst one (in terms of updates, new content and port quality).

I briefly considered reselling it before the urge to open it overpowered me. 8) Can't wait to play it!
why!?!

i have no idea what a sealed on goes for, but you probably could have sold it for more than 50 and had enough money to buy the game again and other stuff too.
I agree with you and the thought did cross my mind. However the thought of investing the time and effort to do that just wasn't as appealing as keeping it. I hope my brash disregard for frugality has not offended your sensibilities too much. :wink:

eBay. I thought I was taking a chance on it because it because there was only one picture of it and they person selling said that he/she was unsure if it was ever opened. That sort of thing usually causes me to assume the worst.

Is there anything REALLY bad? I thought it was just degraded sound quality.
