Why this scraper?

🎯 Built for gamemania.nl

A dedicated Dutch scraper tuned for gamemania.nl — its categories, price formats and currency (EUR), not a generic tool pointed at it.

💶 Structured pricing

Current price as a clean number in EUR, plus discounts and previous prices where the source shows them. Items without a published price return null, never a guess.

🖼️ Photos

Photo URLs for every game where the source publishes them.

Input parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
categories	array	["ps5"]	Console categories to scrape. Use shortcuts (ps5, ps4, switch, switch-2, xbox-series, xbox-one, pre-orders) or a full category slug.
searchQueries	array	(empty)	Keywords to search on GameMania (e.g. 'zelda', 'fifa'). Each query is scraped as a search-results listing.
startUrls	array	(empty)	Direct GameMania category or search-results URLs to scrape. Overrides nothing — added on top of categories and search queries.
fetchDetails	boolean	false	Visit each product page for full data (description, stock, platform variants, release date, breadcrumb, gallery images). Slower but richer.
maxResults	integer	5	Maximum number of products to return across all seeds. Set 0 for no limit.
maxPagesPerList	integer	0	Cap pagination depth per category/search. 0 = scrape until no more products.

Known limitations

• Some fields (brand, condition, shipping) are only returned when the seller or source publishes them — expect null on a share of records.
• Prices and stock change constantly; records reflect the moment of scraping.
• Very large result sets are bounded by the source's own paging limits.
• Items can sell or be withdrawn at any time, so a small share of URLs may expire shortly after scraping.

Technical details

• Source: gamemania.nl
• Coverage: everything the public search exposes, filterable via the input parameters above
• Retry: automatic retry on network errors with exponential backoff
