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 54 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 37 of 54 (~69%) for quality reasons. The remaining 17 are what we'd actually surface.
- 31 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
- 4 shipped from a region we exclude
- 2 seller had too few feedback ratings
What the feed excludes
An eBay search for Castle of Illusion (Genesis) 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 Castle of Illusion (Genesis) because they are: that's the noise.

Castle of Illusion: collector & reseller spec sheet
- What it is: Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, Sega's 1990 Genesis platformer. This page tracks the US Genesis release only.
- Same title, different hardware: the game also shipped on Master System and Game Gear, and those listings reuse the exact same title text. The feed filters them out, but if you find a listing yourself, confirm the platform on the label and in the photos before you pay.
- Save mechanism: no save battery that we have verified, so there is no battery to budget for. Confirm the product code on the label matches the US release.
- Print variants: a later reprint with different packaging may exist, and it may carry a different price than an early run. We have not verified the distinguishing marks, so compare the seller's photos against a known authentic copy rather than trusting a "first print" claim.
- Listing traps seen while tuning:
- Box-only, cover-art-only and manual-only listings carry the full game title and sit close to loose-cart prices. The feed rejects these, but check "complete" claims for a photographed cart.
- Sellers sometimes write "CIB" while listing no manual. Read the description before treating it as complete.
- Non-US or reproduction copies appear under the same title, including Brazilian and Korean releases. The feed excludes these, so don't treat a rare-sounding listing as a bargain on this page.
Buying Sega Genesis games: what to check by condition
These checks apply to every Sega Genesis 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.
