"Word on the street is that a few of the big chain stores are selling Drill Dozer for a discounted price. Target has if for $15, Bestbuy for $10, and Circuit City for $9. Great GBA game and worth the full price, so swoop this one up if you haven't already."

1. Drill Dozer is an excellent game--lauded by some as one of the best in the GBA's huge library
2. Game Freak made this game

So not only are you buying a superb game at a rock-bottom price, but you're supporting Game Freak. And that (may) mean they make more/better Pokémon RPGs!

So what are you waiting for? :p

Work on Diamond and Pearl apparently didn't start fully until this game was finished. Do you really want to give them ideas? :p
 
That's a typo--I was copying this from a post I made from another forum, and that slipped, I guess.
 
I don't think Game Freak needs our help; I think they're doing well enough financially because of Pokémon. ;)

But hey, cheap games.

Sounds very interesting, but I'm kinda low on money, so I'll have to wait to get one.

Actually, Drill Dozer was a massive flop. Brilliantly received by critics but no-one fucking bought the game. I'm sure most of that was down to the fact they decided to release it on a dead system though.

Hopefully it wont discourage them from making a DS sequel.
 
That happens with a LOT of great games, though. Beyond Good and Evil, the first Prince of Persia, Ico, etc... Americans are trained to salivate over mediocrity like the Pavlov dogs most of them are.
 
Nevermind Americans, literally NO-ONE bought this game.

It made a few thousand sales worldwide and that's it. Such a pity. :/
 
By the way, if you're still wondering whether to buy it, I bought Drill Dozer this weekend at Best Buy, and all I can say is, it OWNS. Yes, it's short, but it's fun, the art is great (the girl in my current avatar is actually the main character of the game), and it has a Rumble Pack. Really, this is probably the best $10 you'll spend for a while. Hell, I'd pay full price for it.
