How we filter

Every feed has its own filter, tuned by hand for this one game. Before any change goes live, those filters are tested against thousands of real eBay listing titles. Every night, each feed is checked against every other deal page in its category, so a listing for a different game that slips in gets flagged and fixed instead of quietly shown.

Of the 168 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 68 of 168 (~40%) for quality reasons. The remaining 100 are what we'd actually surface.

  • 47 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
  • 13 seller had too few feedback ratings
  • 3 priced below our floor (too good to be true)
  • 2 priced above the curated ceiling
  • 2 seller positive-feedback percentage too low
  • 1 wrong condition (e.g. parts-only)

What the feed excludes

An eBay search for Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (DS) returns far more than the game itself: controllers, T-shirts, strategy guides, imports and repro carts all mention it in their titles. These are the 101 terms we filter out to keep this feed to the real thing. A listing whose title contains any of them never reaches the feed, the price table or an alert. Many look unrelated to Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (DS) because they are: that's the noise.

Bowser's Inside Story: collector & reseller spec sheet

  • Release and code. The US Nintendo DS release is from 2009. Listings that quote the cart code show NTR-CLJE-USA; a code that doesn't end in USA is the wrong region for this page. Check the label against the one in the listing photos.
  • Saves. The game saves to the cartridge. Treat "tested, holds saves" as worth more than "authentic" alone, and ask for a photo of a working save file when you are paying a premium.
  • Print variants. A standard retail print and other print runs may exist, but we don't name distinguishing marks. Compare sealed copies like for like, and note that graded copies sit in their own, much higher asking band.
  • Listing traps.
    • The 3DS remake, Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, shares the name and shows up in DS searches. Confirm the listing says Nintendo DS, not just a cart photo.
    • Case-and-manual-only and strategy-guide listings use the full game title; read the title for "case only" or "no game" before bidding.
    • Not-for-resale demo copies are sold alongside retail ones and priced differently; the feed leaves them out.
  • Series. For the GBA game that started the series, see Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

Buying Nintendo DS games: what to check by condition

These checks apply to every Nintendo DS cartridge. The item notes above cover what is specific to this game.

Loose

  • Compare the label, shell color and front/back markings against a photo of a known-authentic cart. Repro labels are often glossier, blurrier or slightly off-color.
  • Ask for a photo of the board or the back of the cart. An opened shell is not automatically bad (battery swaps are normal), but it should be disclosed.
  • If the game saves to a battery, ask whether the save holds. Old save batteries fail with age regardless of what the listing says, so budget for a replacement.

CIB (complete in box)

  • Confirm the box, manual and plastic case and cover art are all shown in the photos, not just listed in the title.
  • Check that the box and manual are the same region and print as the cart. Mixed-and-matched "complete" copies are common.
  • Box wear (crushing, tears, sticker residue) moves price far more than the cart does. Judge it from photos, not from the word "mint".

Sealed & graded

  • For a graded copy, look the certification number up on the grading company's own site and confirm the photos match the slab you are buying.
  • For an ungraded sealed copy, compare the wrap and seal pattern against a known factory-sealed example. Resealing is common, and a reseal on a loose game is worth a loose price.
  • Ask for photos of every side, the seams and any price stickers. Refusing extra photos on a sealed listing is a red flag on its own.
