Delivery time: 6-10 working days

We ship from the Netherlands: your parcel crosses the ocean, so it takes longer and costs more than a domestic delivery. US import duties are calculated at checkout and prepaid — nothing is due on delivery.

On a US console: Game Boy Advance games have no region lock, so this European (PAL) edition plays on a US Game Boy Advance. Game text in English; the box and manual are the European print.

US import duties (12.5%) are added at checkout and prepaid — nothing is due on delivery. Prices and checkout are in US dollars at our fixed shop rate — your bank converts nothing.

Why does shipping abroad cost this much?

Inside the Netherlands a single game fits through the letterbox — $4.93, tracking included. That service stops at the border. Anything leaving the country goes with PostNL as an international parcel, which is a different and considerably more expensive service. That is where the $38.05 comes from: the border itself is not what costs money, the cheap service simply ends there.

That amount covers the PostNL rate to your country plus the packaging: bubble mailer or box, an antistatic sleeve for the cartridge, and tape. We never drop the tracking — on a parcel that crosses a border, shipping without proof of delivery is a risk for both of us.

Without you there would be nothing to grow. Every order that comes in here is the reason this shop can get bigger — and the reason I can keep doing this.

About this product

Lady Sia for Game Boy Advance — original Nintendo retro, personally checked.

Action platformer for the Game Boy Advance.

Cartridge cleaned and tested on original hardware, ready to play.

The Game Boy Advance came out in 2001: 32-bit ARM processor, wide screen, backwards compatible with Game Boy and GBC games. On the original cartridge the game runs the way it was meant to — and keeps working for years to come.

Who is this for? Anyone who would rather play on a real Game Boy Advance than in an emulator — collectors who want the original in their hands, and players who simply want that feeling back.

Game Boy Advance games have no region lock, so this European (PAL) edition plays on a US Game Boy Advance. Game text in English; the box and manual are the European print. Every item passes our authenticity check (shell, board, Nintendo markings) and a function test — you're buying 100% original Nintendo.

Shipped from the Netherlands with PostNL tracking to the US: from $38.05, import duties paid at checkout. 30-day returns.

Seen it cheaper elsewhere?

For most titles there’s also a private listing online, sometimes a few euros cheaper. The difference isn’t in the title, but in the copy itself and in everything around it.

Does it work?: Here: Has been running here — save and label checked — before it went online.; Private seller: ‘Works’ in the photo. You test it yourself, after buying.
Is it genuine?: Here: Six checks: screw, label, circuit board, weight, save and boot. A reproduction doesn’t get through.; Private seller: Fakes are a plague with Pokémon and GBA games, and in a photo you can’t tell the difference.
If it disappoints?: Here: 30-day cooling-off period, and a 30-day warranty that it works.; Private seller: No right of withdrawal: consumer law doesn’t apply between private individuals. Buyer protection only covers the first 48 hours after delivery; after that you’re on your own.
Who’s behind it?: Here: One person, who has held this game personally and answers your question personally.; Private seller: Varies per listing.

Why you still remember this

The little screen you turned towards the light

You knew the perfect angle to the lamp. The click of the SP snapping shut when you were called for dinner, and the certainty that you could carry on exactly there as soon as you were back.

One copy, this copy. Second-hand can’t be ordered in: it comes in or it doesn’t.

Will it work on my console?

Authenticity check

How we test Game Boy Advance games for authenticity

GBA cartridges (2001-2008) are counterfeited a lot, Pokémon first. We go through these five steps on every cartridge. Every Game Boy Advance game in our shop goes through this five-step check before it is sold.

1
Y-bit tri-wing screw + cartridge colour
A tri-wing screw is required (not a Phillips screw). The cartridge colour must match the specific game (Pokémon Ruby = dark red-purple, Emerald = forest green, FireRed = vermilion). Fake colours are off.
2
Product code AGB-XXXX
On the back: AGB- prefix (Advance Game Boy). AGB-BPEE = Emerald USA, AGB-BPEP = Emerald EU. No prefix, or a meaningless code: then it is a counterfeit.
3
PCB Nintendo seal
Open the cartridge with a Y-bit screwdriver. The circuit board has NINTENDO engraved on it, with the correct product code. Counterfeits have a random chip layout or an imitated Nintendo logo.
4
Cartridge weight 10-13 grams
An original GBA cartridge weighs about 10 to 13 grams, depending on the circuit board (measured range). Counterfeits with thinner plastic are usually lighter; a different circuit board sometimes makes them heavier.
5
Starting up and saving
Insert it into a GBA/GBA SP/DS/DS Lite. The game starts within 2 to 3 seconds. Make a save → eject → reload → the save persists. Fake cartridges: corrupted save after re-inserting, or a crash on the save write.

What we see with Game Boy Advance games

Our experience

GBA cartridges are counterfeited a lot. For every cartridge we go through our six points: tri-wing screw, label print, weight, AGB product code, Nintendo PCB, and a start-up and save test in an original GBA. Pokémon titles are counterfeited most often.

Our tip

GBA cartridges work on all GBA systems (GBA, GBA SP, GBA Micro) and the original DS + DS Lite (NOT on DSi/3DS). If you want a lit screen, choose a GBA SP AGS-101 or a GBA Micro.

About the Game Boy Advance

The Game Boy Advance (2001) is Nintendo’s most sought-after retro handheld right now. With 82 million units sold and a library of 1,000+ games, the GBA has a huge legacy. Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald and Zelda: The Minish Cap are icons that only get scarcer as supply dwindles.

Backwards compatible with original Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges — except the Micro, which only plays GBA.
Four handheld models: the original GBA (widescreen, no light), SP AGS-001 (clamshell, frontlit), SP AGS-101 (backlit, the best) and Micro (tiny, GBA games only).
The battery in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald runs flat after 15+ years — the game and the save still work, only the clock and the timed events stop. The coin cell can be replaced.
The GBA is the most counterfeited Nintendo handheld — check for tri-wing (Y-shaped) screws on the back as an authenticity check.

Our tip: With a GBA cartridge, the tri-wing screw is your best friend: an original has a Y-shaped screw, fake cartridges use an ordinary Phillips screw. Always check before buying.

Does Lady Sia have a save battery that can run flat?

Most Game Boy Advance games keep their save on flash, EEPROM or FRAM without a battery; some early GBA games still use battery-backed SRAM, and in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald the CR1616 only powers the clock. Every game is tested for saving before it ships (make a save, switch off, load again). Not sure? Ask us in the chat.

Yes, we have a large Game Boy Advance collection. All games are original and personally tested.

I hope Gameshop Enter gives you back a piece of how it used to be.
