How These Rankings Are Built
There is no estimating here. We index every graded Game Boy game that has sold through Heritage Auctions and Goldin, group sales by grader and grade, and rank by the highest representative realized price. PriceCharting’s per-grade video-game figures are derived multipliers and are not used for these rankings — only the auction houses’ actual hammer prices are.
