The SNES games we buy
- Super Mario World, Yoshi's Island and Super Mario RPG
- The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
- Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy II and III, Secret of Mana
- EarthBound — loose, and boxed with the guide
- Super Metroid, Castlevania IV and Dracula X
- Donkey Kong Country 1–3 and Kirby Super Star / Dream Land 3
- Mega Man X, X2, X3 and Mega Man 7
- Contra III, Turtles in Time and the beat-'em-up shelf

The RPG shelf is the money — Chrono Trigger, EarthBound, the Final Fantasys and Super Mario RPG lead every SNES conversation, with the first-party classics right behind. Boxed copies, especially the big-box EarthBound with its guide, are among the strongest retro offers we write, period.
Loose carts vs. boxed — how SNES games are priced
- Complete in box: cart, box, manual, posters and inserts — pays the most
- Cart with manual — a step up from loose
- Loose cart with a clean, glossy, unfaded label
- Save batteries on RPGs tested — a holding save helps
- Yellowing shells, torn labels and marker lower the number
- Every cart is played in a console in testing — no exceptions
SNES pricing runs on title, then completeness, then condition. A loose Chrono Trigger is a serious buy on its own; a boxed one is a headline. Either way the cart goes into a console at the counter and gets played before a number is spoken.
Authenticated in store — no receipt needed
Every game is tested in store with professional testing equipment — played in a real SNES at the counter, labels and boards checked, in front of you. No receipt? No problem. We have never asked for a receipt on a 1990s cartridge. Boxes and manuals do support a stronger offer, so bring whatever survived.
The more you bring in, the more you get. Retro collections price better whole: console, controllers and twenty carts as one lot beats twenty separate sales. The more you bring in, the more you get — bring the bin, the box and the manuals you found with it.
Conditions we buy
- Complete in box with manual — pays the most
- Loose carts with clean, unfaded labels
- Carts with honest wear or a replaced save battery — tell us
- Consoles and controllers in working order
- Games with an issue — tested and priced as-is

Sell it, or borrow against it and keep it?
Sell the shelf for cash today — or take a pawn loan at 3% per month* for up to 4 months, renewable, and your SNES games are stored securely until you redeem them. A serious SNES collection is serious collateral here.
Private VIP room: for loans and purchases over $2,000, ask about our private VIP room when you book — high-value pieces are handled there, not across a busy counter.
Why bring your SNES games here?
Mail-in buyers quote one number online, then grade your piece down in a warehouse you have never seen — and hold your item hostage while you argue.
Marketplaces and consignment mean weeks of messages, flakes, fees and scam risk on a piece worth serious money.
At LBC Pawn your Super Nintendo games is authenticated and priced at the counter in front of you, the offer is the offer, and you leave with cash the same visit — or a loan ticket and your ownership intact.
Skip the drive-first guesswork. Text photos of the item to 857-867-6468 and get a ballpark before you come. Prefer to talk? Call the same number during shop hours.

Questions we hear
- Are SNES games really worth that much?
- The right ones are. Chrono Trigger, EarthBound, Super Mario RPG and the first-party classics hold strong collector value, and boxed copies multiply it. Bring your lot in — testing and pricing is free, with no obligation to sell.
- My EarthBound has the big box and guide. Does that matter?
- Enormously. EarthBound's oversized box and strategy guide are exactly what collectors hunt, and a complete copy is one of the strongest retro offers we write. Bring everything together.
- Do you test the games, or buy them blind?
- Every cart is played in a console at the counter before we price it — including checking that RPG save batteries still hold. You watch the test, then you hear the number.
- Can I pawn my SNES collection instead of selling?
- Yes — borrow against it at 3% per month* (plus the one-time 8% first-month charge) for up to 4 months, renewable, and your games are stored securely until you redeem them.
