How Much Does a Complete Game Boy Color Set Cost?

Buying every Game Boy Color game complete in box would cost roughly $26,401 at today's prices across 367 titles, an average of $71.94 per game. The median game costs $38.21, and 71 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 Color games alone account for about 24% 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 Color 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.
