Game Boy Advance 85% Off Finds
More GBA games shipped in. In addition to a requested GBA game, sometimes a far away Gamestop will ship out their remaining stock of GBA games. The additional GBA carts do not take up that much room in the package and it gives them an opportunity to clear their inventory. Dumping their games on the receiving store gives me another opportunity to discover unknown titles. I had only requested the second GBA Invader cart shipped in, which also brought in a variety of additional GBA games.

It's my theory that the game was cancelled in the US, and all the copies you can find here are imports.CRTGAMER on May 11th 2012 wrote:For some lucky soul there is still one GBA Invader left.
A Gamestop at Zip Code 75211 in Dallas Texas.
GBA Invader - $9.99 $2.25
Nobody jumped at a chance of the rare game, so I said heck with it and had it shipped in. At least I waited a couple weeks to give someone else an opportunity. This was the VERY LAST COPY at any Gamestop in the U.S. and is difficult to find, also has a EUR PAL tag on it! I can justify owning two copies since it is Link capable with two GBAs.

ATV Quad Power Racing - $4.99 $1.13
What a difference in a game when handled by a different developer. There was also another cycle racer in the pile called Quad Desert Fury which is pure garbage with static movement. This version runs smooth, glad that I hit the reviews to figure out which is the better title.
B-Daman - $4.99 $1.13
A strange name. Searching online, pics of the screen reminded me of Atari 5200 Ball Blazer with what looked like a goalie at the end. I became curious and researched further. YouTube videos showed a kind of reverse Klax with the same gameplay of moving sideways and hitting targets. A good move, this Atlus game almost slipped by me.
Matchbox Missions Double Pack - $4.99 $1.13
Two separate games combined in one cart. The Matchbox label put me off as a simple games, but the two separate games are addicting and worthy of repeat play.
Air, Land and Sea Rescue - Race away or drive as a cop, basic portable version concept of Need For Speed.
Emergency Response - Drive Emergency vehicles and even fly a Helicoptor to perform rescue missions.

This two-in-one combo is a pleasant surprise, with both titles being equally good. Each game boasts large vehicles, tight controls, a password feature, and a pulse-pounding soundtrack. Emergency Response is a pursuit-style game where you can either play as the police or the suspect (I prefer being the cop). There's not much to see as you race through the suburbs, desert, or snowy mountain peaks, but the addictive action never lets up! The suspect has a health meter that you wear down by bumping him from behind or blocking from the front. There's actually some subtle strategy as you decide whether to bump or go for the pass. The only thing that sucks is how the suspect can pick up "health" icons to regain strength! The second game, Air, Land, and Sea Rescue, is uneven but still compelling. You control a helicopter, ambulance, or boat while attempting to save a certain number of people as the clock ticks down. The helicopter controls well and reminded me of Desert Strike (Genesis, 1992). The boat stages are less interesting because the narrow waterways seem rather maze-like. The ambulance stages are the best, although your vehicle is a bit slow. A radar display indicates the approximate locations of fuel, health, your home base, and your next destination. I wasn't expecting much from Matchbox Missions, but I enjoyed playing both games. Especially if you can pick it up cheap, you'll definitely get your money's worth.
Monster Truck Madness - $9.99 $2.25
Another racing game, this one is up there and even better then ATV Quad Power Racing. Very smooth when making turns and there is even a first person view, I get Vertigo jumping the hills.
Mr Driller 2 - $9.99 $2.25
When I bought Invader, this came in the pile from the other Gamestop. Having played the Dreamcast version, No need to research, grabbed it right away! Great going down a pit, think Tetris mixed with Dig Dug.
Tower SP -$6.99 $1.57
I have GBA Sim City so why not get a closer look concentrating on just one building? Plays similar to Sim Tower, I can see hours tied up to this, should the Restaurant on the second floor be a Burger Joint or an Ice Cream Parlor?
Yggdra Union - $9.99 $2.25
Anyone driving to Vegas from Southern CA goes by a small town called Zzyzx. No relation to the game, but I remembered that bit of trivia nonsense when I saw the title. One of these days I'm going to see what is in that weird named town. The game looks like a different take on Advance Wars, so maybe a good purchase? Evidently there is a PSP remake of it. Another Atlus game to add to the collection!
GBA Urban ----?
At first the torn label kept me from buying this game. I figured it was something like an Urban Skateboarding or a basic Urban Fight type of game. The employee was kind enough to print out a complete listing of every GBA related SKU so I could go home and research the games. I could have bought it for a test run, but this Gamestop has over twenty GBA games with titles I never heard of. Most of the games in this Reply are from the printout research before purchase.
The game is no Chewbacca, but strangely different with mini games based on Older Arcade games.The kind of game that was designed and programmed by some drunken computer science students who had nothing better to do over their spring break. Upon doing some research, the game was developed by a small Canadian outfit that was part of another small company.
See the pic and take a guess, without a Google search.

Look closely at the UPC for Invader in the pic above, it was traded just a couple of months ago this year at a Gamestop in Texas! Either that or the GBA cart was found buried in a drawer and received the sticker. Yggdra Union threw me off, just like the Urban game, I thought the GBA label was damaged.
The yellow envelope just will not do for storing GBA games and digging thru GBA carts in a pouch is a pain. I found a great solution in using COIN PAGES, there are alternative methods offered by other Members as well.
