> > I think the value comes just from the popularity of the Harry Potter franchise at the moment. In 10 years, they'll be worth garbage, like every other fad kids have gone through. I'm sure you at least heard of the Pokemon craze. That's what this is, to a much lesser extent

> Ah, yes. I should know about fads. After all, *I* was actually caught up in the Pokemon craze up until a few years ago. I think I still have some Pokemon gameboy games lying around. In 4th grade, Warheads were the fad. In 5th grade, it was yo-yos. It wasn't until late 5th grade and 6th grade that pokemon came in. But when it did, EVRYONE was having some cards or games or something. Buy by seventh, grade, people were mocking Pokemon, and it became "uncool." Still, I don't think there has ever been a bigger fad phenomenon among children than Pokemon.


I don't think it's uncool, but it's definitely one of the best Gameboy games ever. I hated all the other merchandise.
