Awhile ago I posted about a utility I was developing called Gamefinder (monitored eBay for games I was interested in)... a number of months later and I've turned it into a fully functional retro platform with a web console, search, news and pricing insights (think lot valuation) -- and most importantly, I've rebranded Gamefinder to 8bitedge Desktop Edition; a fully standalone, AI backed game discovery engine for market places like eBay.
I'm still hard at work on https://8bitedge.com!
I've invested many hours now fine tuning the native desktop console and it's backend by implementing native language processing, LLM RAG and vector databases to significantly improve console search results.
If you haven't yet, really try it out. It's actually useful and is a free resource I've put together for the retro gaming community. It is a really easy way to identify good deals on eBay (other marketplaces TBD) for retro games. I've added significant filtering capabilities and have separated out individual games from lots so you can do something like "Only show CIB Nintendo games that are 20% below current pricecharting and accept offers or buy it now"!. Results are pushed to the console ~ every 60 seconds so you actually get a chance to grab the latest listings.
I'm attaching screenshots of the latest desktop console and the filtering capabilities as it has improved significantly over my last posts to this forum on 8bitedge. I've been using this for awhile now to build out my SNES collection and it works really well!
Thanks and don't forget to be kind and rewind!
