Super Mario 64 Game Breaks Auction Record

An unopened copy of Super Mario 64 has been sold for $1.56 million.

This breaks the record for the most expensive videogame sold at an online auction. 

Released in 1996 for the Nintendo 64, the game was Mario’s first 3D adventure.

It went on to become the console’s best-selling game ever, with nearly 12 million sales to date.

According to the Guinness Book of Record, the copy sold at auction was the first game ever to sell for more than $1 million.

The hefty sum smashed the previous record of $870,000 for a rare version of The Legend of Zelda, which was set only two days prior at the same auction.
