The Legend of Xanadu

An overhead fantasy ARPG that uses a similar bump-attack style to the Ys games.

Some unique features include a day/night cycle, some side-on action sequences and the ability to level up your weapons and armour.

The TurboGrafx-CD (1989) was one of the earliest CD-ROM add-ons for a home console, expanding the TurboGrafx-16's library with games too large for cartridges. Its already-niche parent platform combined with the added cost of the CD add-on kept the North American audience small, making complete TurboGrafx-CD sets a genuinely rare find for collectors today.

Gamevaro tracks The Legend of Xanadu for TurboGrafx CD 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 The Legend of Xanadu 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 TGCD release dates back to 1994.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Legend of Xanadu, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common TurboGrafx CD 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.
