About Neo Geo CD
SNK's Neo Geo CD (1994) brought the arcade-perfect Neo Geo library to a CD format at a fraction of the AES cartridge system's cost, making the platform's famous games far more accessible at the time. While cheaper than AES originals, Neo Geo CD games are still a specialist collecting niche today, and disc condition matters enormously given the format's known reliability issues with the console's slow-loading drive.
Gamevaro tracks The Last Blade for Neo Geo 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 Last Blade 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 NEOCD release dates back to 1997.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Last Blade, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Neo Geo 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.
