8-bit Super Mario Bros. became the most expensive game in history. She managed to get around Super Mario 64, for which they paid $ 1.56 million in July. Now, at auction, an 8-bit arcade cartridge was sold for $ 2 million.
The safety rating of the copy is almost perfect, 9.8 A +. However, there was no bidding auction as such. The game was released by Rally, a company specializing in the sale and purchase of rare items. In addition, she allows her clients to receive so-called shares in these items. Usually, when a buyer appears, Rally notifies the owners and asks them to vote whether to sell the valuable item or not.
This is how the sealed cartridge with the legendary arcade about Mario was implemented. In April last year, Rally purchased the same copy for $ 140,000. In 2020, the company's investors rejected an offer to sell the game for $ 300,000. And they did not lose, now they were able to help out much more for it.
