How to read these Nintendo Entertainment System price moves

A rising price usually means one of three things: a game just got attention from a re-release, a video or a speedrun; supply of complete copies dried up; or a grading wave pulled clean boxed copies off the open market. Short spikes fade — a title that climbs across several weekly scans is the one worth buying early.

Percentages compare the current complete-in-box guide price against the previous tracked value in the NTSC market. Loose copies normally move first and sealed copies last, so a loose spike is often an early signal for the CIB price.
