About

Widely considered one of the greatest video games of all time, and also one of the best selling games of all time (with over 50 million copies sold worldwide) - Super Mario Bros. is a cultural juggernaut. Often regarded as the killer app for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES, colloquially), Super Mario Bros. was the successor to the Mario Bros arcade game, and the launch game for the console in the United States. This game, and the NES, are believed to have revived interest in home gaming consoles in the 1980s, setting the stage for the coming decades.

 

Originally released in 1985, it was the first Super Mario game, and developed by Shigeru Miyamoto (who was involved in all of the early Mario releases). This platform game popularized side-scrolling games as a genre and re-envisioned how soundtracks relate to gameplay. This copy is in pristine condition, featuring three screws and a round SOQ (seal of quality) with Rev-A. 


Highlights

Thesis
Mario is one of the most well-recognized video game characters of all time. The game was created over 30 years ago, and continues to sell in the latest video game formats, such as the Nintendo Switch. The culture significance of the characters and the strong momentum and macro tailwinds for the video game collecting category make us excited about the potential of this game.
The Game
This game is a high-grade copy at a Wata 9.4 and A+ seal in a “Round SOQ” (Round Seal of Quality) variation, which is an early print of the game. There has only been 1 public sale of a Round SOQ Super Mario Bros NES game at a 6.0 grade, making this game incredibly scarce.
Recent Sales
There are no direct comparables for this game but there are two other data points to highlight the potential value of this game: 1) Hangtab version (different variant) of this game in a 9.4 A+ sold for $114K in July 2020, and 2) first production copy of Super Mario Bros 3 in a 9.2 A+ holds the record for the highest public sale price for a video game at $156K as of November 2020.
Macro Trends
The collectible video game market gained traction in 2020, breaking a record high public sale in November 2020 of $156,000 for Super Mario Bros. Given the scarcity of high quality vintage games and the amount of people engaged with the category, we are excited about the market's future potential.
Risk
This category has grown significantly this past year, and there is a possibility that such growth isn’t replicable going forward. This game sets the market for a Super Mario Bros Round SOQ video game at an auction, and there aren’t a lot of data points to leverage. Additionally, it is possible that new supply comes to market as more people submit their games for grading and sale.
