Video games

Identify console games by platform, region, release, completeness, and condition before comparing values.

Research principleIdentity before value

Small differences in release, condition, or included parts can create completely different comparable markets.

Identification workflow

Document the exact item

  • Match the platform logo on the case, cartridge, or disc.
  • Record disc or cartridge, case, artwork, manual, and inserts separately.
  • Check region, release variant, label condition, and resurfacing or repair evidence.

Value factors

Compare relevant evidence

  • Complete copies should not be compared with loose media.
  • Sealed, graded, promotional, and bundled copies require separate evidence.
  • For lots, value each identifiable title before applying a realistic lot discount.
