Like a used Ferrari, the most expensive game ever costs like

The explanation for the six-figure price is because it's very rare that the game is Super Mario Bros. 3 in a bundle like this.

Last Friday, at the auction of the House Heritage Auctions, a new milestone was reached at the price of one video game, and as many as 20 collectors fought to offer higher cash for a rare gaming rarity.

A rare unpacked copy of the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) console, Super Mario Bros. 3, sold for a whopping $156,000.

Such a high price, according to the Aukian estate, is the explanation for the fact that the copies of the game are Super Mario Bros. 3 in the packaging as it is very rare in the picture. While the depiction of Mary in flight will be remembered by many and nothing odd will be seen on it, the earliest drawing from the packaging varied from the later ones.

And the only distinction is that Mario's right palm is partly obscured by the word "Bros." on the left side of the box.

Nevertheless, there is something else. This clone of the Super Mario Bros. 3 rating of 9.2 A+ was provided by the video game rating firm, Wata Games. This suggests that this edition of the game is in near excellent shape in the warehouse The status.

In contrast, in early July, the same auction house sold another "almost perfect" clone of Super Maria 3 for $ 38,400. The key reason why that copy was four times cheaper is that it got just a 9.0 A rating, according to Wata Sports.
