Using a special 'bubble launcher' you fire colored bubbles in an attempt to make matches and clear the playing field of bubbles. After clearing all the bubbles, you advance to the next level. The game ends when the bubbles get so piled up that they reach the bottom of the screen.

Common - There are 45 known instances of Bust-A-Move owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 6 of them are original dedicated machines, and 39 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Of the 57,121 video games (3,420 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 15 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records.

Wanted - There are 3 VAPS members currently looking for Bust-A-Move.

For Sale - There is one VAPS member with a Bust-A-Move machine for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.
