CGC Video Games provides expert and impartial grading services for video games from the most popular modern and retro gaming consoles, including Nintendo, Sega, Atari, PlayStation, Xbox and more. Launched in 2022, the division of Certified Guaranty Company® (CGC®) has already graded thousands of video games, including two cartridges from the 1990 Nintendo World Championships.

CGC Video Games employs a team of professional graders that examine each collectible and assign a grade according to a highly accurate 10-point grading scale. In addition to using this grading scale to evaluate video game boxes, cartridges, discs, manuals and game-specific inserts, CGC Video Games also uses a secondary grading scale to grade sealed video games.
