Do you happen to know if they grade GBA games stricter than N64 games? I literally can't spot anything besides one little corner ding (not even a crease) whereas the N64 Golf has a slight corner crease (and is higher grade).

For a game to get a 9.2 like the GBA title then there is something significantly damaged somewhere. You're missing something or the case is masking a side bulge.

For a game to get a 9.2 like the GBA title then there is something significantly damaged somewhere. You're missing something or the case is masking a side bulge. I think I found the issue. I think there may actually be a side bulge masked or at least some slight creasing strategically hidden under the seam. It's difficult to take picture of things like these but this has to be it. A lot of it is light and the plastic but some damage to box is finally apparent Edit: still, doesn't seem to be more serious than a corner crease?

Franmotard | 79 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 New addition to my collection, has anyone played it? I remember playing it on my PS2 demo disc back in the days, seemed like a bargain for 20€ and will look very nicely next to my dark cloud which was also in the same demo disc and probably the game I enjoyed the most on my PS2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimalHouse | 117 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Gosh I remembered when a sealed Mario Bros sold in auction for $38,000+ on ebay. Now theres a sticker sealed Gyromite in auction right now, link here. Man this game is very hard to find sealed, let alone sticker sealed. With 3 past sale examples to choose from heritage. I will take a back seater on this and watch only. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
