Frequently asked questions
What is the median price of a new game console today?
In the 06/11/2026 catalog, the median price is $600, across 28 new game consoles from trusted sellers. Half cost less than that and half cost more.
How much does each score point cost?
Today’s collection doesn’t have enough game consoles with a score to calculate this.
Why the median and not the average?
Because a few very expensive game consoles pull the average up and hide the price most people pay. The median shows the game console in the middle.
How often does the overview change?
Every day, with each new collection. Each collection saves a snapshot of the price and score of each game console, and the "What changed" section compares today’s with the previous one and, when available, with the one from about a week earlier.

Where the numbers come from
Lowest price seen for the product in the stores we read, on the day it was read, before sales tax. Median of each range calculated over the game consoles in the range; the score only considers the game consoles that have a score.
The overview describes the Radar catalog, not the whole game consoles market, and the price is the one collected on the date shown.
