Campaign to Support Game Software Asset Building in Spring

Kaikuru Hodogaya Store, a visiting purchase service, will launch the "Spring Game Software Asset Building Support Campaign" starting April 1, 2026, aiming for appropriate evaluation of buried assets in response to the recent surge in used game software market prices.

In recent years, game software from the 1980s to the 2000s has seen a sharp increase in transaction prices due to demand from domestic and international collectors. This campaign will appropriately evaluate software even if it is "just the software" with missing box or manual, based on its work value and demand. It offers safe reuse opportunities for residents of Hodogaya and Kanagawa wards, characteristic of a community-focused store.

Background: The Global Frenzy for "Retro Game Assets" and the Disconnect with General Households

Currently, the retro game market is experiencing a global boom, with software for Nintendo 64, GameCube, Game Boy, and others frequently trading at prices exceeding their original retail value on major auction sites and in the used market. On the other hand, many households mistakenly judge that "it won't sell without accessories" and discard them. Kaikuru Hodogaya Store aims to properly evaluate the market value of "software only" to revitalize local reuse.

Details of the "Game Software Purchase" in This Campaign

1. OK Even Without Box or Manual: Pursuing the Value of "Software Only"

Accessories Not Required: We actively accept software that is "without package" or "without manual," cases that typically lead to significant price reductions or non-acceptance. "Work Value" Over Condition: Based on the latest market data, we reflect the current demand for the software itself. We meticulously appraise each cherished piece of software. Consultation Possible Even if Unconfirmed to Work: Even for items not started for decades or whose operability is unknown, please feel free to consult us first.

2. Responding to the Needs of All Generations (All Generations, All Manufacturers Targeted)

Retro Consoles: Family Computer, Super Famicom, Game Boy, Nintendo 64, GameCube, PlayStation (1 & 2), Sega Saturn, Dreamcast, etc. Latest & Portable Consoles: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo 3DS, PS Vita, etc. Bundled Assessment of Peripherals: Accessories such as controllers, memory cards, and AC adapters can be assessed along with the software.

3. Only with Kaikuru's "Anything Appraisal" Service! The "1,000 yen Box" Option

This is an optional service exclusively for customers who request a purchase. Customers can fill a special box brought by our appraisers with household goods that are usually difficult to price, for a flat rate of 1,000 yen. (※Please inquire with the store for details.)
