Heritage Graded Sales
Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy on Game Boy Color. They complement the PriceCharting loose / CIB / sealed benchmarks above; they are not estimates and they are not blended into PriceCharting’s ungraded market prices.
Summary rows are title-level Heritage sale signals, sorted by format, recency, and realized-price signal. PSA production variants can price differently, so the sale records keep Heritage’s own variant notes visible instead of pretending every auction lot maps cleanly to a PSA variant row.
High-grade games can trade years apart, so older auction records stay visible; treat the latest-sale date as part of the comp, not just the dollar amount.
| Format | Grade | Sale signal | Latest sale | Comps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory sealed | WATA 7.5 A+ | Last sale $264 | Feb 7, 2023 | 1 |

Why Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy Matters for Grading
PSA has graded only 5 copies of Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy for Game Boy Color across all conditions — a tiny population that puts collectors who own a graded copy in a roster of fewer than 10 known holders. Notable: every graded copy is in the sealed condition — collectors clearly favor that condition tier for this title, and the other conditions are either ungraded territory or grade-and-flip opportunities. Sealed copies trade at roughly 5× the loose price ($108 vs $20). Solid spread for grading speculation if you can source a clean sealed cart.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy Game Boy Color worth grading?
Strong yes for clean copies. With only 5 graded copies on record, Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy is squarely in the rare-population tier for Game Boy Color — and PSA grading adds meaningful provenance on titles with this little supply. Grade-and-hold is the play; flipping mid-grade copies thins margins fast.
How rare is a graded sealed copy of Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy?
PSA tracks 5 graded sealed copies of Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy for Game Boy Color. The grade-tier breakdown above shows how those split across PSA’s numeric grades — top-grade copies (9.4+) are the scarcest and typically command the strongest premiums.
Should I buy a graded or raw copy of Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy?
Depends on your goal. Graded copies cost more upfront but come with PSA’s authenticity + condition guarantee — the right move for buy-and-hold collectors. Raw copies are cheaper but require condition assessment yourself, and the grading lottery means a $50 raw cart can come back as a $25 PSA 7 OR a $200 PSA 9.4. Use the per-condition pop and price data above to calculate expected value before you commit.
Why does PSA track multiple variants of Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy?
PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Earthworm Jim: Menace 2 the Galaxy on Game Boy Color. That doesn’t mean only one variant exists — production codes that haven’t been submitted yet won’t appear on the census. Check the back of your cartridge for production-location markings (“Made in Japan”, “Made in Mexico”) and the box for ESRB-rating placement to identify your specific variant.
