Sealed Super Mario Bros. sells for record $3 million
The Verge·
A pristine, sealed copy of the original Super Mario Bros. game has shattered previous records, fetching an astonishing $3 million at Heritage Auctions. This particular 1989 edition, a second run, is distinguished by its rare glossy sticker seal, a method discontinued shortly after its production. Experts believe this unique sealing method and its status as the earliest known sealed copy contributed significantly to its record-breaking sale price. The auction house noted this sale surpasses the prior record of $2 million, also set by a Super Mario Bros. copy in 2021, highlighting the enduring value and collectibility of rare video game memorabilia.
