Another rare copy of Super Mario Bros. sold for $ 2 million – Igromania

Rare sealed copy Super Mario Bros. for the NES was sold at auction for $ 2 million. This is a new world record – recall that the previous one was set about a month ago.

The cartridge was sold by Rally, which originally purchased it for $ 140,000. During the auction, she had to reject a significant bet of $ 300,000 – as it turned out for good reason. The offer to buy the cartridge for $ 2 million came from an anonymous winner who is known for his high bets on video games.

As a reminder, prior to Super Mario Bros. another major sale of the original The legend of zelda, for which they paid 870 thousand dollars.
