    I Couldn't Find The place to put this, so if this isn't the right thread, let me know.
    While at a garage sale, i Found a this cartidge called Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt Demo.
    After Looking it up, i found a few articles about it, but the most information i could find came from a wiki article.
    http://metroid.wikia.com/wiki/Metroid_Prime_Hunters:_First_Hunt
    Correct me if i'm wrong, but the site says It Was A Demo included With the first Nintendo DS before the games release, that
    was discontinued by nintendo once the game was released. The Game features some short trailers and footage of the game along with some minigames to "test your abilities." Also, it is one of the few game demos i have seen that does not have a "not for resale" sticker on it. What i was wondering, is if anyone knows any more about this game and if it's worth anything.
    I also just found this TCRF article about it, but it doesn't have too much information to add. https://tcrf.net/Proto:Metroid_Prime_Hunters
    Edit: After looking at the replies and on ebay, the game sells very cheap.

    As you have said these were included with the original DS consoles. My DS came with it, purchased in Australia. The demo levels are quite different to what was in the final product in parts. Value is $10 or so.

    You said pretty much all there is to say about it. It's really common and very cheap, because, as you said, it was included with the early DS systems - so there are a ton of them and very little demand. Looking at eBay, they seem to be going for around $3-4.

    EDIT: I posted before I saw Roxbury's post, but what I said applies to the US version.

    From what I have seen, it's nothing important or really that interesting like these guys said. My DS came with it, but to be honest the game isn't that fun. It held my attention for less than 10 minutes.

    Well, you have some answers now. But there is also a NFR version. I don't know if there is any difference to the version that was bundled with the console but it's possible.
