A pristine copy of the original run of Super Mario Bros. for the NES has sold to three men for over $100,000 in a historic game sale
When adjusted for inflation, games have maintained a steady cost over the decades, but that doesn’t account for collector’s items. A pristine copy of the original Super Mario Bros. just sold for over $100,000 in what industry experts are calling one of the biggest sales of all time.
The classic Nintendo Entertainment System game sold for $100,150 earlier this month in a private transaction. This wasn’t just any old copy of the game, however, as the six-figure deal was closed for a first-run, pristine conditioned box of Super Mario Bros. It is being speculated that this is perhaps for the first ever sale of this high dollar value in the vintage game collection business.
