Current Market Prices

All prices below are pulled directly from PriceCharting’s public catalog and refreshed each time this article regenerates (typically weekly). PriceCharting computes their values from active and recently-sold listings on eBay + their dealer network — independent of any data on this page. The Sealed column reflects PriceCharting’s “manual-only” / new tier — factory-sealed retail at average condition; specific graded-sealed prices vary sharply by numeric grade + seal letter (use the Sealed eBay browse link below for grade-specific comps).

Heritage Graded Sales

Heritage Auctions sold results below are real auction transactions for Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon on Nintendo 64. 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.

Why Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon Matters for Grading

With 20 PSA-graded copies on record, Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon sits in the mid-rarity tier for Nintendo 64 — graded copies surface periodically on eBay but command meaningful premiums over raw. The sealed condition dominates submissions (15 of 20, ~75%) — a strong signal that’s where most collector value sits for this title. Sealed copies trade at roughly 8× the loose price ($1,065 vs $125). Solid spread for grading speculation if you can source a clean sealed cart.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon Nintendo 64 worth grading?

Mostly for sealed copies. The sealed-state population (15) outweighs CIB and loose for Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, indicating sealed is where collector capital concentrates. CIB and loose grading is viable but margins are thinner after fees.

How rare is a graded sealed copy of Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon?

PSA tracks 15 graded sealed copies of Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon for Nintendo 64. 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 Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon?

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 Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon?

PSA’s database currently shows one tracked variant for Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon on Nintendo 64. 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.
