[JoeTheUseless]

Hey guys

Im a big GBA fan and im trying to put a wish list together with the rarest most expensive GBA games as i can feel myself going for a full set in a few years time does anyone have a detailed list or any information regarding the rarest GBA games

Thanks guys

PS Game & Watch Gallery 4 is a fairly anoying one to find complete been after that for 2 years lol

i've been keeping an eye out for an Invader for years. if you find one, let me know!

GBA collecting hasn't really taken off yet so if you want to pick stuff up it'd probably be better to get in there sooner rather than later just-in-case. We all know the story when it comes to cardboard boxed nintendo titles...

The two big ones in my opinion are Ninja Cop and Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action. Ninja Cop just sold for £114 on ebay and it has already started to gain a bit of a following because it is a pretty awesome game (though it isn't that rare, I've seen two CIBs within the last 3-4 months).

Ice Nine and Payback would also be worth picking up if you find them complete.

Ninja Cop is pretty much the game everyone is after, insanely expensive game. GAN collecting will be a funny one for years thanks to all those pirate carts.

Im sure i have a copy of Animaniacs around somewhere but didn't think of it as rare, even on ebay CIB it didn't sell for £1.99 :S

Ninja Cop is quite possibly the best GBA game, its really high quality and the fact its an original exclusive GBA game when so much of the library was ports or franchise sequels makes it stand out all the more. I knew it was great when it came out, but even then it was really hard to find, I think I've only ever seen it once in the real world and ended up buying mine on ebay as I couldn't find it stocked anywhere else.

I was going to say Ninja Five 0 (That's what we call it here in the states,) but everyone beat me to it.

My copy of Ninja Five-0 is still sealed... I am very much tempted to think about letting it go given the prices heh...

From a collecting perspective, yes - even Heidi. From a playing perspective, the likes of Animaniacs and Deadly Skies are decent enough. Bruce Lee gets mixed but generally good reviews. Some say it's repetative. Personally, I don't see this and think it's a brilliant game. It's also fairly rare as well and many overlooked it as a cheesy kung fu game - same reason why Jackie Chan games are generally overlooked but the PCE and PS1 (stuntmaster) games are actually decent.

Don't be fooled by Shinobi, it's a major letdown. But, again, from a collecting perspective, it's nice to own it as part of the 'Sega on GBA' set.

Thanks man, which ones are worth getting for 10 euro's a piece though? With regard to playability and value? I might be able to get more of some of these. I like buying a few to sell so my own become free, you know.

[hydr0x]

I don't see any of those going for more than 10 except Konami Arcade and Revenge of Shinobi maybe.

Sadly, I wouldn't buy it because i'd want to actually open and play it!

[Mayhem]

Yeah, that's really the thing... I guess the only people who would pay the price, would leave it sealed. I even recently turned down 150 quid for it, but it's getting harder to resist...
