This is the completed GBA NFR set with clean front and rear labels. Have had the complete set now for over year but a few had damaged labels. After tracking down Fire Red and Drill Dozer I opted for revamping the set.



Forgot this one:

Thanks everyone! Glad that it's finally completed and in minty shape. Now I need to wrap up the DS NFR set which really seems impossible.

What are you still looking for?  Kurtori is the only one I know who has a full set...NGD came damn close too...

I thought you would have found a few gems in the lot you bought from the old Nintendo rep from Tennessee?  Nothing crazy rare from that deal?

I don't believe kurtori has a full set he had contacted me not long ago about buying some carts from another site. I need a few Pokemon and 1 DQ map to round out the collection.

Thats such a nice collection Jaxs! I've not seen any of these kicking around in Europe as of yet, I keep looking but to no avail >.< Not even sure if Ninty did them over this side of the pond, but I live in hope

Great work man, that is tough to pull off! I bet you will complete your DS set. You post some crazy rare NFR items. Only a matter of time.

Thanks Spif! I hope you are right about me completing the DS set. A few guys are real close but don't believe anyone has a complete set. The big problem is Simons Mall DQ Map Distribution... This cart haunts my nightmares.

I just love that they really only went bonkers with DS demos with well over 100. 42 seems like (though I know it isn't) no big deal.

Awesome set to have pounded out. What have you completed so far? SNES, GBA, what else?

-------------------------
Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

I'm almost complete if not complete on all the sets just not 100% up to my liking. DS is the only set needing some love and luck getting the last few. The others just need a little love if any for both minty front front and rear labels. I have even moved on to eur and jap nfrs to keep the hunt alive.

Should Nintendo Zone cart be considered to be part of the GBA NFR set?

Wow, that is a thing of beauty.

Makes me realize, I was closer to a full GBA set than I had thought. Thing is, most of the ones I need, I've never even seen for sale before. Currently at around 28 or so, if I recall. Argh, I was trying to get out of this... don't pull me back in!

Can I just ask why there are two Fire Reds? I assume it's a NTSC/EUR thing but since I'm after a Pokemon NFR Set I wanted to make sure
