There seems to be more than a handful of GBA games with low print runs these days. I think the newest one is yggdra union.
Are any of them any good? Is it worth tracking them down? Or are they all gabrage?

Ninja 5-0!
YaY! Ninja Five-O!
Best rare game ever. Thread closed.
I've wanted to buy Ninja Five-O for the longest time but I've never seen it in a store and I won't buy it off eBay. I did check out a ROM and it is indeed quite awesome.
I put off buying it for so long, then never got it =(
How was Metal Slug Advance? Keep in mind I enjoyed the NGPC immensely and never cried about having a health bar.
Hell yeah! The NGP Metal Slugs are better games than the arcade ports--I like First Mission better than the second.Quote:

And yeah, Ninja Five-O is great. I don't know why they made so few of them. I never even saw it on shelves. If you like Bionic Commando, check it out.
And if you like Bionic Commando, the NES version is on Capcom Classics Minimix for GBA along with NES Strider and Mighty Final Fight. I doubt this will be that rare but it's under $15 now.
Keeping in mind that you enjoy the NGPC Slugs immensely, it sucks. Don't buy it.Quote:

Aw man =(
You know I can't do that.
Pinball of the Dead imo
Sealed copies of Riviera & Megaman Zero 2 were fetching about $50 each last I checked. Both are cool.

I'm not sure why, but I thought this thread was going to be about that Banjo Kazooie game for the GBA. BK for the GBA is awesome too! Its a far more enjoyable platforming experience than the overbloated Banjo Tooie. I highly recommend this game if you can find it for ten bucks or less.
Ha, I played through that game. Man, was it short. N64 Banjos killed it though, c'mon.
The first Banjo Kazooie game killed it, but I never cared for the second game. I'm hoping BK3 will be more like the first game than the second.Quote:

There was a GBA Comix Zone? As in, the Sega Genesis Comix Zone? I loved that game!Quote:

I remember seeing this in Edge, it got a US release? Definitely have to check that out...
As far as obscure games with low print runs how about:
Car Battler Joe
Gekido Advance (I'm guessing, never saw a copy in store)
Denki Blocks
The former Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers (released in the US or Canada with different art and name)
Sega Rally
*-neo
I have seen Gekido Advance here in NYC. IS it any good?
For a original sidescrolling fighter it has great music, graphics, and solid control. Your mileage may vary depending on how much you like the genre. *-neoQuote:

I have Gekido. I haven't looked to see what it's going for but I wouldn't pay more than $20.
It's Mr. Pants! randomly only found at Kohl's for a month
I wanted to get It's Mr. Pants, but i never saw it anywhere. That's before i ever ventured into a Kohl's.
