ALL requests regarding game value or authentication go in here. Just leave a top level comment with pictures/info of what it is. If you make a post regarding these topics, the post will be removed and possibly get a 1-7 day ban.
If you see posts on these topics PLEASE report it. It helps immensely. We will be updating automoderator to help alleviate some of that burden from us and you onto it.

If you are asking to price something normal. Like the normal release of a game, or a special edition, normal consoles, or some special editions. You can find a decent approximation of its value here at PriceCharting.com
To help, here are some links directly to some consoles. These are not ALL of the consoles the site has. So please if you do not see a link below for the console you are looking for, go to the site and look around. This should cover MOST games, if it is not listed, please ask in this thread.
Also, to possibly get you closer to the "real" value. Click on this link once you found your game (for loose/CIB/Sealed) which will show you the data it is pulling from (like this). You can see if there are any outliers being sold for far to much, or far to little. Maybe a listing that had other games with it is being used for data, or its CIB rather than loose.

Pretty satisfied with my NES-collection as it is now (SCN-collector). Got the idea for the shelf from a post here on Reddit (sorry, forgot user). 200 SCN titles with US titles on bottom-right-shelf

These came from the very first Pokemon press kit released in the west, before the name localizations were finalized. It’s likely that it was given out in early-mid 1998. Unfortunately, I don’t personally own the entire press kit, but I was able to obtain and upload scans of the whole thing.
As stated in small text at the bottom of each page, the names were, in fact, subject to change. A few highlights: Kara-tee, Kung-foo, and Ju-doh instead of Machop, Machoke, and Machamp; Skulkraken for Gyarados; Ess and Kargo for Omanyte and Omastar; and perhaps the most iconic, NY and LA for Koffing and Weezing, which will never not be funny. But it is pretty obvious as to why that didn’t stick.

Kinda funny cause I was planning on buying a psvita but as they were telling me they already sold the one I saw online I see some guy checking out with a copy of Soulsilver CIB w/ pokewalker. I guess his card declined and when he walked out the store I asked to buy it but, they said he should coming back. Never wanted someone to not come back so bad before cause I was so ready to nab it lol. but I wouldnt have enjoyed pressing for it and functionally taking the opportunity from someone who found it first so, I waited and just chatted with my friend for a loooong time to see if they would come back. Well, good thing I waited cause when he came back and got it, they offered me a "less pristine" option without a pokewalker or just a loose copy so itd be cheaper. Lol turns out when he goes to check the box there actually was a dead pokewalker (just needs a new battery but still CIB manuals and all) in it and decided just sell that at a better rate than normal. One of the best experiences ive ever had collecting!

Definitely wasn't expecting this after getting there 45 minutes after they opened.

I picked up a copy of silver from a store a couple years ago, and the guy gave me the manual too. I’ve recently started going for the cardboard boxes to complete my Pokemon games, and my fiancée found a listing of just the box and inserts, exactly what I needed!

Very happy with this price. Has the manual as well.

2024 may have just been my busiest year ever.
38 games beat
20 games completed (All Achievements)
My game of the year for 2024 was definitely Prince of Persia, but Demon Turf may just be the most fun game I discovered this year

Most were personal pickups but a few of these were Christmas gifts from friends
Very excited to play Darkened Skye, Gauntlet and Nightshade
r/gamecollecting • u/gregcresci • 12h ago
In no particular order... There were many other deals but these were the ones I think are the best and documented well... Let's hope 2025 can be just as good!
