Super Mario Bros. became the most expensive game ever sold

The adventures of the legendary plumber Mario and his brother Luigi have long been a legend in the interactive entertainment industry. A sealed copy of the original Super Mario Bros. went under the hammer for a whopping $ 660,000, making it the most expensive game in history. For comparison: in 2020, another copy of the game was sold “only” for $ 156 thousand.

Auctioned copy of Super Mario Bros. for NES (better known in our area under the name Dendy) was released back in 1985. Heritage Auctions declares that this Super Mario Bros. is the oldest known auction house. In addition to the fact that the cartridge is sealed in the original packaging, its cost was increased by the fourth version of the game recorded on it, which was released for a very short time (according to some estimates, no more than a year).
