I heard that the GBA games will be about £35-£40 each.
Great as they may be, that is one hell of a rip off!
I will pay £25. No more.
For that £40 I could get a brand new Gamecube game (I should have a gamecube by then) and when you compare the development costs to each system.

Now what I heard might have been a rumour.
I hope so or the GBA will not be the success the gameboy was!

You have to know a relative in Australia, that is the second release place of the GBA (MAY) after Japan.

Also Australia's Nintendo products are ALL PAL.
I will have to pay direct bank transfer to my cousin for £80.00 for the GBA or £115 for the GBA and Mario Kart Advance.

I have to say that that is extremely brilliant and I think anyone who knows anyone in Oz should research into it.

(Apparently the Gamecube, is released there in Oz in November 2001)

Well I care - I hate paying £25 for GBC games as it is. In my opinion, GBC games should all cost £15 or less, and GBA games ought to cost £30 or less. Dan's right - when you compare the cost of developing a GBA game to the cost of developing a next-gen game, there's no comparison, so in an ideal world there should be no comparison between the RRP's either. Still, if Special Reserve manage to bring that £40 price tag down to £30 I may be swayed. I do like the sound of multi-player Mario Kart!
