I don't know if this applies to all Best Buys, but I found the Rally Racer Racing Wheel controller for GBA for 99 cents at one near me. I'm not sure if it's any good, but for 99 cents I gave it a shot.

Lol, I thought the same thing when I saw the post, "huh?". I believe it is something like this (http://www.etoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/2124319/ctid/19/INstock/Y/D/530/ls/default).
Last time I checked, this didn't work with SP's. So be careful if you have an SP.

Fire is the only thing that could kill that creature.

I saw it at Gamestop for $2.99. It looked a little weird but if I see it for $0.99 at Best Buy, I'll pick it up just to try it once and see how it really works.

I can't wait until they release a full-sized lightgun for the GBA SP. With a wide enough beam, you'll never miss a shot!

Lol, nice. I'm looking forward to the Hori fighting stick, myself.

I picked this up today for $0.99. The GBA snaps into the center of the wheel. However, when you steer, it triggers these pushers to push the D-Pad left or right so you turn as you steer. Same thing with the A and B buttons.
I have Dance Dance Revolution for Gameboy Color with a snap on dance pad that fits over the Gameboy Color and basically does the same thing. When you press up on the dance pad, a trigger pushes up on the D-Pad.
The reason I am mentioning that is because after playing Dance Dance Revolution a lot on my Gameboy Color, it really wore down both the D-Pad and A and B buttons because of the stress the triggers from the dance pad put on the D-Pad and buttons.
I suspect the same thing will happen with this GBA steering wheel where if you use it a lot, it will wear down both the D-Pad and A and B buttons from the triggers putting stress on the D-Pad and buttons.
I ended up using the steering wheel for 1 lap of a race and then decided I don't want to ruin my GBA so I stopped using it. It did seem to work ok but it wasn't worth it to me to use it, even if it did only cost $0.99

It's been out for a few years. There are 5 different versions. They have only been released in Japan though.
Here's a link to a picture of it http://pocketmedia.ign.com/media/reviews/image/dancedance/dancedance_main.jpg
