Another record was set. A sealed copy of the game was auctioned for $ 1.5 million

The record amount for which the game was sold at auction fell twice in a few days. First, the sealed game The Legend of Zelda was auctioned on the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1987 for 870 thousand dollars, which is about 19 million crowns. It is an early production version, which was produced for only a few months.

“As for this particular copy of Link’s very first adventure, we don’t even need our whole hand to count the number of copies that are said to exist in the sealed state of this ‘No Rev-A’ production series, and this copy is one of the best known specimens.” it is written in the label on Heritage Auctions.

But just a few days later another stone came. For $ 1.56 million, or about 34 million crowns, a sealed copy of the 1996 Super Mario 64 game was sold on a Nintendo 64. The condition of the package was assessed by WadaGames and awarded 9.8 out of ten.

“The cultural significance of this title and its importance to the history of video games is immense, and the status of this copy is so breathtaking that we are really embarrassed. If you wanted to get a copy of the best-selling best-selling video game on Nintendo 64 – Nintendo’s first 3D adventure mascot, Maria – we only have one piece of advice for you: don’t miss this opportunity. ” it is written in the auction label.

And if you want to play both games legally, you have several options. You can buy used versions of games on the original console for a few hundred or a few thousand, depending on whether you buy just a cartridge or the whole package and in what condition. As for something new, the first Zelda is part of a collection of NES games that all Switch Online subscribers have access to on the Switch console. It will also be published in November as part of Zelda’s anniversary digihra. As for Super Maria 64, it is part of the collection Super Mario 3D All-Starswhich was released last year on Switch.
