Did it have a small print run? Can't seem to find this in a lot of stores. Also it's fetching a small portion above it's retail price on Ebay. I'm just curious, because I am thinking of picking this up sometime down the line.

I would've thought Trauma Center would be the first "rare" DS game.
For me, I can't find Snowboard Kids anywhere. Grr.

My GC has SBK and my EB, Wal-Mart, Hastings, Rhino and GC can't seem to get rid of their LIB's.
Phoenix Wright -- now there's an unommon game with definite potential. Same with Trauma Center.

Amazon has all of the above mentioned games at not more than retail.
well a few Mario Kart DS auctions are over the MSRP before shipping, but it is far from rare (in fact I sold one for $39 before shipping)
Konami has a low print for most of their GBA games, but most of them are not that hard to find.

There is a not a single 'rare' DS game except for the Nintendogs Best Friend edition, which will be released in its proper form this month. All the other ones are either selling very well, not in stock, or just 'uncommon'.
There are a few games that have the potential to be rare (Trauma Center, Phoenix Wright), but as of right now, NO DS game should be selling for 'above' retail unless for the reasons above.

I agree that no DS game are rare. However sadly most stores smallest section is/are the Nintendo section counting GCN,GBA, and DS put together. I have both Trauma center and Lost in the blue. I was only able to find them once a EB store opened near my house. Before that I could not find them anywhere.

So Best Friend edition is coming out as a game alone? Know the MSRP by any chance?
Trauma center sold about 3 times as many copies of phoenix wright, so that might something to think about. (PW only sold 9,000 copies during its first month of release, a lot less than Lost In Blue or Trauma center)

I too am curious about this. It's on EB's site at all.
