How Much Does a Complete Game Boy Set Cost?

Buying every Game Boy game complete in box would cost roughly $72,886 at today's prices across 438 titles, an average of $166.41 per game. The median game costs $82.07, and 10 titles still sell for under $20 — most of the budget goes to a handful of chase games.

In fact, the ten most expensive Game Boy games alone account for about 25% of the full set value.

What a "complete set" really means

Most collectors count the licensed retail releases for one region. Our totals cover every Game Boy game in our catalogue with a bot-verified market price, so they are a realistic buying budget rather than a theoretical list price. Variants, regional reprints and promotional discs are not included.

Loose totals are the cheapest way in and usually land at a fraction of the complete-in-box figure. Sealed totals are dominated by a few graded copies and are far less liquid — very few collectors ever complete a sealed set.
