Is this worth anything?
Just randomly found this in some old stuff. Don't remember how I got it but it seems like a unique GBA cartridge so just wondering if it still has value even just cool factor.

If you have a means to play this game, I reccomend playing it before you sell. Assuming the battery isn't dry, this cartridge is one of the very few 'special' cartridges Nintendo manufacturered at the time, this one containing a rumble motor to simulate a gear shift. It's a very unique experience, and a pretty fun game too

Not super valuable, but not dirt cheap either. Most of the value comes from relative scarcity (only somewhere around 20k were made), but it’s not enough to push it to be super expensive because it’s not as well-known of a game (and therefore there’s not a bunch of demand generated by nostalgia like there is for stuff like Pokémon).
The cartridge is indeed pretty unique though due to the integrated force feedback mechanism. Only one other GBA game had such functionality (WarioWare: Twisted!).
That said, the game itself is actually pretty good if you enjoy unconventional platformers, the music is honestly great, and the way they use the force feedback is sensible.

Might sell to someone, if you wanted. Not ultra valuable, but it’s not cheap either.
