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 247 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 244 of 247 (~99%) for quality reasons. The remaining 3 are what we'd actually surface.
- 236 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
- 6 caught by a junk-listing guard
- 1 priced below our floor (too good to be true)
- 1 seller had too few feedback ratings
What the feed excludes
An eBay search for Shantae (Game Boy Color) 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 104 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 Shantae (Game Boy Color) because they are: that's the noise.

Shantae: collector & reseller spec sheet
- Which release this page tracks. The original 2002 Capcom-published Game Boy Color cartridge, developed by WayForward. The 2021 Limited Run Games reissue for Game Boy Color is a separate, far cheaper product, and the feed leaves it out so it doesn't drag the asking-price table down. Sellers often title a reissue as just "Shantae Game Boy Color", so check the year and publisher.
- Product code & save mechanism. The game saves to the cartridge, so it relies on an internal save battery. Cells that old routinely fail; budget for a battery swap whatever the seller says, and treat a "tested, saves" claim as worth asking for proof. Confirm the product code on the label matches the US release.
- Print variants. We can't point to a verified, distinguishing mark for any alternate print of the original, so treat any seller claiming a rare variant as unproven and compare against known authentic photos.
- Traps to watch. This is one of the most expensive Game Boy Color games, so reproductions, relabels and reshells are a real risk. A Phillips-head screw on the back of the cart means it has been opened or reshelled; authentic carts use a Nintendo security screw. A "game only" price that looks like a bargain next to the rest of the feed deserves a closer look at the label, board and photos before you bid.
- Graded copies. Slabbed sealed copies list far above everything else in the feed. Compare them against other graded sales, not against loose or CIB asking prices.
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.
