Has anyone seen these around before? I didn't even know of such a thing until a few days ago when I was looking for Pokémon cards...

If anyone is curious, I'll post a little report of sorts on them.

Who still plays with Pokemon cards these days?

My nephews apparently...

Plenty of people who shop where I work.

I see them at Wal-Mart all the time.

I feel bad for changing the topic now ._.

The Pokemon cards? Or Galaxy cards?

The Galaxy cards.

Another one-liner for me. I need to get some new material.

Those Galaxy cards look so amazing that I would, provided that they're available in Canada, purchase the entire collection, fry them up and eat eat 'em, so they could always be a part of me. Otherwise, Club Nintendo's virtually-unobtainable, Mario-themed Hafunda cards will have to suffice:

Oh the Hanafuda! Those cards are really so great!
They also have that old-school design of Mario and Co. that I love so much!!! *_*

I have been informed that you can find the Hanafuda in internet, but they cost sooo much: about 40 Euros (don't know in dollars, but almost the same). I don't believe in this: I think only that some Japanese guys are taking advantage of the fact that you can find these beautiful cards only in the Japanese Nintendo Fan Club.... =/

Anyway, since when have the Super Mario Galaxy trading cards been sold? This is the first time I see them: I hope they will be sold also in Europe!

You can get them in the American Club Nintendo now as well. What is it, 800 coins?

40 Euros = 55.67600 U.S. dollars

I live in the US and have a deck from club.nintendo.com which I believe services NA. I think most major countries have a Club Nintendo now. Have you checked to see if they are available at NOE?

I saw Twilight Princess trading cards (including stickers, etc.) at a Wal-Mart two years or so back while Halloween shopping. I bought 'em for my brother's birthday.

800 Coins on the button. They're certainly available in Japan and North America, but it's hard to say the same for Super Catalina's native Italy. Of course, eBay always has a few decks for sale, albeit at exorbitantly high prices.

Those are not high prices.

Nintendo charges $800 for them.

Well, the cards cost $800, but then you get $800 worth of games for free.
