Wavetale

Wavetale is a story driven, third-person action-adventure platformer, set in an island world built atop the remains of a once magnificent city.

Player takes on the role of Sigrid, a headstrong girl who gains the ability to run on water through the help of a mysterious shadow.

Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.

Gamevaro tracks Wavetale for Nintendo Switch 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 Wavetale 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 NSW release dates back to 2022.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Wavetale, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Switch 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.
