SALE Mario Party Advance (In Stock, JPN-GBA] US$78.98/each

NCS Product Update

07/17/24 06:12 PM Product Condition
   This is a new Japanese GBA game but we learned recently that VGA won't grade games that have imperfections on the cardboard box. For example, on these particular copies of Mario Party Advance, the seams on the cardboard side flaps appear slightly stressed even if the flaps have never been opened. However, VGA will refuse to grade Japanese Gameboy Advance games that might look like they've been opened even if they haven't based on these stressed flaps. VGA will also charge you their grading fee even if they don't perform the grading due to the stressed flaps. 
 
   The stress may come from overseas shipping since these were sent from Japan nearly 20 years ago or from rubbing against other games in warehouse storage. Putting pressure on the cardboard box on either the front or back will also stress the flaps as the box is even slightly squeezed inwards. We placed these particular copies of Mario Party inside our own heat-sealed acid-free plastic bag about 18 years ago since GBA games are not naturally shrink-wrapped from the factory and we figured adding an extra layer of protection can't hurt. 
 
   Using acid-free storage bags ensures that we won't have to re-wrap the games over and over again to avoid acid-buildup in some forms of plastic bags that will leech acid after a five or so in storage.

NCS Product Synopsis
Update: January 12, 2005
«©NCSX» In the annals of gaming, few genres offer as much variety and value as the mini-game collection. To this end, Nintendo exploits the Mario Party franchise once more in a GBA version of their popular series. Mario and crew join together for a rousing good time in mini-games such as fishing, balancing on top of Koopa Troopers, running 'n jumping, shooting, and other tried and true themes that are well suited to short and sweet interactions. New to the format is the introduction of Professor E. Gadd's special Gaddgets which are little tools and tricks that add to the interaction. Nintendo touts over 50 games in Mario Party Advance which should keep portable players busy.
