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 6 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 5 of 6 (~83%) for quality reasons. The remaining 1 are what we'd actually surface.
- 3 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
- 2 shipped from a region we exclude
What the feed excludes
An eBay search for Ninja Gaiden Shadow (Game Boy) 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 94 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 Ninja Gaiden Shadow (Game Boy) because they are: that's the noise.

Ninja Gaiden Shadow: collector & reseller spec sheet
- Release: Tecmo's 1991 original Game Boy side-scroller, a separate game from the NES Ninja Gaiden trilogy. Sellers often write "Ninja Gaiden Series" in the title, so check the platform line.
- Product code & saves: check that the label's product code matches the US release. Import carts carry a different code. Don't assume a battery or save feature; this page makes no save claims.
- Print variants: no variant premium is documented here. Treat claims of a rare print as the seller's own and ask for label photos.
- Region traps: the Japanese release (Ninja Ryukenden GB) and the European Shadow Warriors retitle both turn up in searches. The feed filters on the Japan and Shadow Warriors wording, but a generic title can still slip through, so confirm the label reads Ninja Gaiden Shadow.
- Manual-only listings: manuals, and boxes with manuals, sell for real money and are titled very close to the game. The feed rejects the ones that say "manual only", but read the photos before paying a cart price.
- Shell check: a Phillips-head screw on the back of a Game Boy cart means it was opened, reshelled or is a bootleg. Authentic carts use a 3.8mm Gamebit security screw.
Buying Game Boy games: what to check by condition
These checks apply to every Game Boy 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 inner tray or insert 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.
