Sell old Sega games online

Can I sell loose Sega Genesis cartridges?

Yes. Every Sega Genesis and 32X price on our site is for the game cartridge only, so you don't need the original box or manual to sell your games to us.

More details
  • Original boxes and manuals are always welcome, but they aren't required. That makes it easy to sell a stack of loose Genesis cartridges that have been sitting in a closet or drawer for years.
  • Some of the loose Genesis cartridges that bring the highest prices include MUSHA, The Punisher, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Splatterhouse 2, Splatterhouse 3, Phantasy Star IV, and Streets of Rage 3. Check our Genesis pricing pages to see what we currently pay for each title before you ship.
  • Disc-based Sega games are different. For Sega CD, Saturn, and Dreamcast games, we require the original case, manual, artwork, and game disc. We don't buy heavily scratched disc games, games with generic artwork, or loose discs.

Sega Selling Questions

Answers to common questions about selling your Sega games and consoles.

▶ Is Sega Genesis the same as Sega Mega Drive?

Sega Genesis and Sega Mega Drive are the same console, just with different names in different regions. Genesis is the North American version, while Mega Drive is for Europe and Japan. We only buy North American NTSC Genesis games, not Mega Drive imports.

▶ Do you buy disc games without the case?

No. Sega CD, Sega Saturn, and Sega Dreamcast games need their original case, manual, and artwork. We don't buy loose discs.

▶ Do you buy Sega Games with Cracked Case?

Large-format cases, including Sega CD and Sega Saturn longbox cases: If there are minor cracks or cosmetic damage, we will deduct 30% from the value. If there is major damage, broken hinges, or other structural problems, we cannot accept the case.

Dreamcast: We will deduct a $1.00 fee for each broken or damaged case received. This applies to standard plastic cases and jewel cases. It includes cases with cracks, ripped outer sleeves, broken spindles, or damaged hinge tabs.

▶ Do you buy Sega Master System Games?

No, we don't buy Sega Master System games.

▶ Do you buy Sega Imports?

No, we only buy NTSC US games. We don't buy Mega Drive imports.

▶ Do you buy rare or hard-to-find Sega games?

Yes, we're always buying popular franchises like Sonic the Hedgehog, Crazy Taxi, Streets of Rage, Jet Grind Radio, and Shenmue. A few of our rare and sought-after titles include Sega Saturn Panzer Dragoon Saga, Sega CD Snatcher, Sega Genesis Crusader of Centy, Sega Saturn Magic Knight Rayearth, Sega Dreamcast Illbleed, and Spider-Man: Web of Fire for Sega 32X. Enter your game into our search tool for an instant quote, or contact us directly if you don't see it listed.

▶ How much is a Sega Game worth Today?

Sega games can be just as valuable as Nintendo or PlayStation titles, though that doesn't mean every Sega game sells for the same prices. Collecting Sega is more of a niche market, so games don't move as fast as more popular platforms. Collectors also tend to be picky about condition, and for Sega Genesis specifically, collectors prefer games with the case, artwork, and manual over the cartridge alone. Search our catalog to see what we currently pay for each title.

▶ Can I buy video games from you?

Yes. You can buy retro games, consoles, and accessories in our online store.
