Description

Metroid - VGA 85+ NM+ Sealed [Oval SOQ TM, Later Production], NES Nintendo 1987 USA. Only four copies of the Oval SOQ TM variant of Metroid are graded higher on VGA's January census, making this example a standout. While the box shows minor corner wear and a light half-inch crease on the back, it maintains an impressive overall presentation. Often praised as one of the premier games for the NES, Metroid revolutionized the action/adventure platformer genre with its nonlinear exploration, sprawling environments, and an arsenal of powerful upgrades. Its narrative twist-that the mysterious protagonist, Samus Aran, is female-remains one of gaming's most celebrated moments. Today, sealed copies of this landmark game are coveted by Nintendo fans and vintage video game collectors.
