An empty retail box for the 1996 Nintendo 64 game Super Mario 64 sells for about £8,450, according to a report. The item is the packaging only, not the game itself. It was originally designed to hold the Super Mario 64 cartridge released for Nintendo 64 in 1996. The sale price is far above expectations: the box was forecast to fetch roughly £1,000 to £2,000. Instead, a buyer pays significantly more, bringing the final figure to approximately £8,450 (reported as “£8,000” and “£8,450” in the coverage).
Both accounts describe the same core details: the item is an empty Super Mario 64 box from 1996 for the Nintendo 64, it was valued in a lower price range before the sale, and it ends up selling for several times that estimate. The reports do not provide additional context on the auction venue, bidding history, or buyer identity.
