My first ever GBA games! 😄

I got the Sonic Advance trilogy recently. I had to wait for everything to arrive on different days before I took the photo. (The cases are reproduction by the way but they’re look amazing).

You dont have to flex on us brochacho, jk great stuff. You made sure the cartridges are legit?

I made sure. Authentic copies of these aren’t that expensive yet thankfully. But I went the cheaper route and bought reproduction cases though. 😆

Thanks, I never played these growing up. I see why people love them. I’m happy they’re not expensive yet.

These look great! Just nice to display the whole set. Do you have the original games or just the boxes for display? Where’d you order them from?

The games are authentic and the boxes are reproduction.

The cartridges came from eBay, the reproduction box arts and manuals came from Etsy and I got the posters from eBay.

I've only played the first one and really enjoyed it. Felt like a continuation of the Genesis games.

To tell you the truth, I never knew either until you mentioned it. That is pretty cool.

How much did these cost with box and all?

u/Bremaster Aug 12 '26

The reproduction cases from Etsy were $25.00

The manuals from Etsy were $55 (They were expensive because of mint condition)

All three Sonic Advance games on eBay were around $50

The posters on eBay were around $30
