About Neo Geo Pocket Color
SNK's Neo Geo Pocket Color (1999) was a well-regarded handheld competitor to the Game Boy Color, praised for its analog stick and strong fighting-game library, but it exited the market early after SNK's parent company faced financial trouble. That short commercial life kept its library small, and complete, boxed copies — particularly of its fighting game ports — are a compact but genuinely collectible niche today.
Gamevaro tracks Shanghai Mini for Neo Geo Pocket Color with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Shanghai Mini to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NGPC release dates back to 1999.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Shanghai Mini, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Neo Geo Pocket Color titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
