Bomberman

You'll explore labyrinthine levels by dropping bombs, solving puzzles and finding hidden items.

The action takes place across five brightly colored worlds: a smoldering volcano, ruined castle, icy mountain range, orbiting space station and storybook village.

Find all 100 Gold Cards in the first five worlds and you can access a sixth world.

To maximize your score, you'll need to finish each of the 20 levels as quickly as possible.

Deadlines are tighter on the Hard difficulty setting.

The game's multiplayer mode comes in two variations: in Single Battle mode, players dash about arenas, trying to blow each other to pieces.

Team Battle mode is a highly explosive version of capture-the-flag.

Your goal here is to destroy the enemy team's gems while protecting your own.

You can choose the number and duration of battles.

You can also choose from three levels of artificial intelligence for CPU-controlled bombers.

When the Ghost option is selected, your little guy will return as a wispy double of his old self after he's gone boom.

Ghosts can control a normal Bomberman, but they cannot deploy bombs.

Other features include the possibility to toss or kick your bombs diagonally, the ability to pump up bombs, knock foes unconscious and then grab and toss them.

Bomberman for Nintendo DS is currently worth €23.90 loose, €9.03 complete in box, and €24.11 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Bomberman has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Bomberman, loose is €23.90 and CIB is €9.03 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Bomberman is currently worth €23.90 loose, versus €20.96 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
