Dark Arena for Gameboy Advance

 Somewhere during my online Travels, I came across pictures of this game:

Pic of box I found on Google



I just got the Cartridge for $7.00 Shipped off Mercari


I Played it on the TV through my Gamecube Gameboy Advance Player, Which I have had since the early 2000's, Pretty sure I bought it Brand New on Clearance from Toys "R" Us for $25.00?


The reason I Immediately liked it and had to have it, was that it is clearly an Original Doom Clone


The original Doom series is one of my absolute favorite games so I HAD to have this!




If you are a fan of the original Doom than you need to pic this up!

And you know I couldn't have a pickups BLOG without a Bonus Disc

Saw this for $4.00, it did not have the actual game disc, but had everything else.
I already had a complete copy of the game, so for $4.00 of course I would upgrade it!

L.A. Rush

With a Bonus Disc!

Even came with the proper Double Disc Case

and with my game disc inside



That's it for now, still have 1 or 2 I am working on, should get up here soon.


But, as you may have noticed, my recent posts have been a little sporadic, I have been working on a project, that I am hoping to turn into an actual business. Working on prototypes and test samples.
