I've looked into this, and I wonder if the USA-1 bug fix carts were from this box? Like maybe bam! had 2 carts inside this box. Mojo had some Invincibility glitch, and Dexter a progress glitch or something. If they produced more of both later to replace purchased carts, is it possible extras got packed in this new box as a "combo"? I can't see bam! making more of these 2 in a combo cart if they had these already laying around. Just a theory, Could explain the apparent few sealed/cib data and zero loose.

@NesmasterThat’s an interesting theory! I know for sure the USA-1 Dexter’s Lab released standalone - the seal on the box for the first print has “Official Nintendo Seal of Quality” while the revised version just says “Official Nintendo Seal.” But they could have still, as you said, included two separate carts in the two-pack.

All of this assuming it actually exists, lol. 

I actually had no idea about the Powerpuff girls glitch / revision. Did they slap a “-1” to the end of the “USA” for that one as well? 

The title pretty much says it all. There’s an image of a Game Boy Advance double pack with The Powerpuff Girls: Mojo-Jojo A-Go-Go and Dexter’s Laboratory: Deesaster Strikes, presumably on the same cartridge. The image is available on Amazon and GamersAlley, and there is apparently a sold eBay listing from 2013, according to Price Charting, but the link to the listing is dead.

GameSpot says the game released on May 22, 2003. No other information available there. 
The game is also listed on JJGames and Lukie Games, sold out. 

Anyone own this double pack? If it exists, it’s gotta be extremely rare.

More than likely, Sam's Club. They utilized blister packaging intended for peg hooks. What's the UPC on the back look like? Any kind or item number or ART?

The blue/white color scheme and "Club" wording make me wonder if it might have been from Sam's Club.

That’s the only thing I’ve been able to come up with myself. Nothing on the back side offers any hint.

For those that consider the GBA Videos part of the set, do you also consider the 700 or so UMD movies and UMD music discs, which are only playable in PSPs, part of the PSP set? If not, why the difference? If so, must suck to be a PSP full set collector!

My gosh, I had no idea there were that many. 
 

Regardless, this drives a good point. If you consider those GBA video cartridges part of the GBA set, you would certainly have to consider the PSP ones part of the PSP set. But set collecting is really just what you want it to be, there’s no standard that says “You have to collect these games listed here in order to call your set complete.” Just take a look at NES set collectors, they can argue for an eternity about whether or not unlicensed cartridges count towards the set. 

I’m wondering where this may have been originally sold and whether or not there are others in this line of “Club Special”s. Purchased it from a US eBay seller, so I’m guessing it was from a North American retailer.

Hey, everyone. My name’s Christian, I’m a fan of variants and have been collecting since 2015. I was totally new to NintendoAge before it got shut down, but I’m looking forward to seeing where this forum goes.
