Still Have Questions? Read our FAQs

How do I get the highest value for my Game Boy Advance?
  • Include All Components: Bring the handheld, battery cover (for original GBA), charger (for SP and Micro), and any accessories.
  • Bring Your Games: GBA cartridges add significant value—especially Pokémon and Fire Emblem titles.
  • Include Original Packaging: Boxes and manuals dramatically increase value for collectors.
  • Prepare for a Quick Visit:
  • Charge Your System: If you have a GBA SP or Micro, fully charge it before visiting so we can test it.
  • Test Your GBA: Confirm your handheld powers on and games load properly.
  • Gather Everything: Find all games and accessories you want to sell.
  • Clean Everything: Wipe down the screen and clean any dusty game cartridges.

Your preparation will enhance your trade-in value and make your visit swift and pleasant. Contact your local store if you have questions about your trade-in.

Do you buy Game Boy Advance systems that don't work?

We buy Game Boy Advance systems in various conditions, including those that don't power on or have issues. Non-working handhelds can still be purchased based on their potential for repair or parts. Common issues like broken hinges on the SP, faded screens, or charging problems don't disqualify your GBA from a trade-in.

What's the difference between GBA SP AGS-001 and AGS-101?

The AGS-001 has a frontlit screen (visible but can be washed out), while the AGS-101 features a superior backlit screen similar to modern handhelds. The AGS-101 is significantly more valuable to collectors and players due to its vibrant, bright display. You can identify an AGS-101 by looking at the model number on the back label or the noticeably brighter screen.

Which Game Boy Advance games are worth the most?

While values fluctuate, generally sought-after titles include Pokémon Emerald, Fire Emblem, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Metroid Fusion, The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, and rare games like Rule of Rose, Car Battler Joe, and Ninja Five-O. Complete-in-box games command premium prices.

Can I sell just the games without the console?

Absolutely! We buy GBA cartridges individually. Bring your entire collection, and we'll evaluate each game. Many retro games have significant value, especially popular titles and rare finds. The Game Boy Advance also plays original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, so bring those too!
