Frequently asked

How much is Detective Pikachu worth on the Nintendo 3DS?

A complete copy sells for about $22 in NTSC (US, Canada) and $17 in PAL (EU, UK, Australia). A sealed copy sells for $30 to $33 and a loose cartridge for $11 to $14.

How do I tell which copy I have?

Look at the rating badge on the front of the box.

An ESRB box, black and white with a letter in it, means a North American copy. Canadian copies have the same front with a bilingual back.
A PEGI square with the age in it means a European copy. France had a box of its own for the same cartridge.
A USK square (ab 6, 12, 16 or 18) means a German copy. Germany rates games itself instead of using PEGI.

Does Detective Pikachu have a collector's edition or a steelbook on the Nintendo 3DS?

Not that we've seen. All 50+ sales so far were standard copies.

How quickly does Detective Pikachu sell?

Around 2 copies sell per month. The cheapest listings sell within about 5 days, and around 50 are listed right now.

How is sales data gathered?

We retrieve listing information through eBay alerts and Vinted alerts provided by GrailHound and apply image recognition and text processing to link marketplace listings to games.
