Unopened Super Mario 64 game from 1996 sells for $1.56M

Here's the full episode if you'd like to see what else this gentleman has spent his money on.

 
Wow. Thanks for sharing these. I sort of wondered about the who and why on these ultra high end slabbed carts. While I still don't understand who buys half a million video tapes, or tons of slabbed carts, the video(s) posted is a small piece but apparently important piece of the puzzle.
 
The Japanese Famicom version of SMB will always be the original. It was released there first for a console that came out there over 2 years prior, and it has far superior box art.

The game was designed and created in Kyoto, Japan by Shigeru Miyamoto for a quintessentially Japanese company that had been doing business there for around 100 years.

US sealed NES collecting/prices is a massive circle jerk. So much artificially manufactured "value".

That is all.

Seriously. Also, millions of copies of the game made. Whoopie its sealed in a box. I will never understand why someone would piss away that much money on something like that. Also, who died and made these wata people an authority on this crap? Lame.

Exactly, both the owner and guy in the video lack all credibility.

This guy is just throwing money at this stuff and acting like an expert.
 
What I don't get is that those jerseys would actually look better displayed in some sort of case, but he's just got them laying out. Maybe he likes to wear them around the house.

Some of the other decor in that room looks like it came from Target.

Lordy, Lordy, they made THEMSELVES the authority!
And thus the fun fraud lawsuit we will get to watch in not terribly long. :)
And here we are with me for almost 52 years now thinking that only things you could actually use had real value.
What a plebe I turned out to be-
