GB Player is $50.

NP. BTW Seeing this price drop I am reminded of how much the GBC sold for after they came out with the GBA. THis is a rouse for idiots that don't know what's coming out next. The price will go down.

Ooops, my bad.

I bought GBC for $130 at Target brand new when it 1st came out. My guess is the GBC dropped to $70 when GBA came out, same as GBA's current price.

I'm still waiting for the pokemon center to drop the price down down to $79 so I can get the venusaur leaf green version SP for myself. Hopefully they follow suit with the price drop, and soon.

Flair, Im not sure if the Pokemon Center drops SE's of the SP. I know the NES SP dropped, but it was available nationwide.

Well, I'm sitting here hoping that they do. I am hoping since they have not dropped the price of the other SP's yet, that there is hope they will drop the price of the limited edition ones whenever they update the site to reflect the price drop.

I picked up the Classic NES GBA for $80 @ BB yesterday.

If this goes further down in price, I'll be pissed.

As it is, I can really find many for the GBA that I feel justified paying the asking price for.
I have all 3 next gen consoles and never pay more than $15 for a game, and there aren't really any GBA games for less than $20.

Eh, we'll see if I keep this thing after all.
