Polarium Advance
Nintendo Wii U · 2016
About this game
Polarium Advance is basically the same as Polarium for the Nintendo DS , but a couple of new blocks have been added.
This is a puzzle game in which the player must create horizontal lines of all the same color (either black or white).

To change the color (or "polarity") of a block, you must select the blocks in one line.
In most puzzles, you can use the border to lengthen the line.
The new blocks in the Advance version are: Hurdle Tiles, which you cannot pass, Multi-Tiles, which count as black or white, and Solid Tiles, which will not turn but are removed so that the tiles above them fall down.
There are 365 puzzles in this mode (Daily Polarium) ranging from very easy to quite challenging.
The Time Attack Mode requires you to solve either ten easy puzzles or five hard puzzles within the time given.
Leaving a block of the wrong color in a line results in a 30 seconds penalty.
It is possible to create your own puzzles and share them with friends.
Puzzles created in the Nintendo DS version of the game are compatible with the GBA version.
The Japanese TV advertisements reveals the game was designed to be played one handed on GBA SP when riding public transport.
About Nintendo Wii U
The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.
Gamevaro tracks Polarium Advance for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Polarium Advance to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 2016.

Rarity & condition
No market sales have been tracked yet for Polarium Advance — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
