I've been really junking for the Phoenix Wright sequel so I wanted to see if they announced the US release date yet.

They don't have one yet (that I could find)

but...

I did learn that is actually pretty hard to find (for now). On Ebay the prices are insane!

So, it got me thinking. What are other really good DS games that for some reason or another are hard to find?

I need friends.... I had to nix Tom. He wasn't really my friend. His smile "mocked" me.

That's true. That game is sold out in nearly every online store that I know. There are still some who sell it, though.

Castlevania will be hard to find soon, it's been discontinued.

You know, I keep hearing that, but I don't know the source... it certainly doesn't make sense to discontinue it... Campkill, care to enlighten us?

i read that at the CV:DoS board on GameFAQs. i guess Konami doesn't like money? supposedly, after they sell/make a certain amount of copies they cut off production. i'm pretty sure they did the samething with the GBA Castlevania titles, thus making them so damn expensive on eBay, and hard to find in game stores. and when a friend of mine bought the last copy at EB, the cashier said something like "you got lucky, we won't be getting any more copies of that in here"

i'm not saying it as fact, just what i've heard. my suggestion is to grab it while you can. you could miss out on a great game.

The gaming store dude told me Brain Age might end up being a hard to find. (That's part of why I reserved my copy)

I know why... :wink:
You know, I wouldn't trust game store clerks too much when it comes to such questions. They just want you to buy as much as possible.
If Brain Age becomes a hit like in Japan there will be millions of copies available.
But again, for 20$ it's a nice deal. You should get it, because it's nice brain training.

Hey now, I said it was only part of the reason... I've been jonsing for this game since I saw it on manuel's game list. Also it's kinda a novelty game.

For whatever reason it was, it was a good decision. :)
It's a great piece of software.
