So that's where the "rare" games are coming from!

It seems like a crapload of DS games are hitting rare status all at the same time, so I've started on a DS buying spree. Picked up Phoenix Wright and Trace Memory, hopefully will have Castlevania Monday, and now need to find a copy of Lost in Blue.

Yes. Yes, you do.

But what is this "crapload" you speak of? Just those games you mentioned or more? Alls I need up there is Trace Memory.

You know, I went to Best Buy to pick up Mario and Luigi: PiT and I noticed that there was no Animal Crossing DS, no Trace Memory, and no Lost in Blue. They had loads of Castlevania and BB never carried Phoenix Wright.

There was only two copies of Trauma Center left.

Games for DS I've heard have gone rare/discontinued/out of print recently:

Phoenix Wright
Trace Memory
Castlevania: DoS
Trauma Center
Pokemon Dash (might already have been)
Lost in Blue

I was thinking that there was one or two more, but maybe I'm wrong.

I haven't Pokemon Dash in my store in a long time. I have the rest of those personally, and I think I still have Trace Memory in the store. I'm surprised to see Castlevania hit the rare list now, seems a little too soon for it to me.

[mollipen]

I don't think it is rare, I think it has come up as out of print/discontinued.

I need Lost in Blue, Castlevania DS (and it's way too early for that title to be getting scarce), and Phoenix Wright. It's surprisingly hard to keep up with the good stuff on DS, although if it could stay on the shelves past Christmas season it'd be a hell of a lot easier.

All these games are still findable (the DS ones anyway) if you're willing to put in the time. About two or three months from now, that's when they'll truly be "RARE" and the punters will have to pay out the ass for them on the interweb.

Both Castlevania and Lost In Blue are still super common around here. I had to go to five different stores to buy Phoenix Wright earlier this week, despite it being easy to find no more than a month ago. I imagine Castlevania will be easy to buy for quite a while, but I wouldn't be surprised if Lost In Blue disappears from the shelves soon...

Lost in Blue any good? I'm saving myself a copy of Pheonix Wright at my EB for when I get my next paycheck. I don't even have a DS. Maybe I should invest in one?
