Super Mario Bros. - Wata 9.6 A+ Sealed [Hangtab, 1 Code,
Mid-Production], NES Nintendo 1985 USA. In our July 2020
Signature Auction a Wata 9.4 A+ sealed hangtab, "3 code" copy of
Super Mario Bros. was thrust into the limelight when it sold
for an impressive price of $114,000, breaking the world record for
the most expensive video game ever sold at the time. We're
confident that an even fiercer competition is brewing for this
copy.Not only is this the finest plastic-sealed copy with a perforated cardboard hangtab we've ever offered of any black box title, it is also the oldest sealed copy of Super Mario Bros. we've ever had the opportunity to offer. This is only the fourth version of Super Mario Bros. ever produced, and its window of production was remarkably short. Just to paint a better picture of how short this really was -- the nationwide release for the console came in mid to late 1986, and black box games distributed for that release did not have the "Game Pak NES-GP" code. It's worth mentioning that Nintendo managed to add the trademark symbol to the Nintendo Entertainment System on their game boxes by the beginning of 1987. That certainly doesn't leave much time at all for this variant to be produced in-between the two!
