The GBA and DS era Pokémon games were always kinda expensive.

Yeah, HeartGold and SoulSilver go for about that much here too. Madness.

The Pokemon games were never expensive. They were always easy to find.
However, for some strange, strange reason, HeartGold and SoulSilver never dropped in price. I don't know if it's because of the PokeWalker or what, but those two games in specific ended up so much more expensive...

It's not. The 70 euro games were JUST the games, they had the regular packages and not the boxes Pearl was a similar price too

In the US, Diamond and Pearl were always easy finds. It was always specifically HG/SS that raised in price and never came down.

There is a reason for it being revealed now. It has to do with that new movie coming out. A new trailer was released with Marshadow in it.
