Rick Harrison’s starring Pawn Stars is widely popular for showcasing the selling, purchase, and evaluation of interesting artifacts. And recently, Rick came across sellers asking for a whopping million dollars for a first edition Super Mario Bros sticker sealed copy. It’s true, the term “sticker sealed” means it’s the title’s never opened copy. Moreover, spending millions of dollars for a 1900s game might sound crazy, but it’s not for real passionate collectors.

In fact, mentioned as a high grade by the sellers, it also has a Nintendo sticker. And what really makes it so special is it belongs to the test market launch of the NES console, according to the sellers. Considering it all, the title indeed seems valuable, but it fails to impress Rick. In fact, Rick also mentioned he’s really not into video games. Moreover, Rick backed off and expressed he won’t be getting into it, considering its hefty price.
On 11th April (Monday), Pawn Stars mentioned the same via YouTube Shorts. The video indeed gives every insight into it.
Moreover, one of the sellers described the game, “What makes this special, there’s a lot of different indicators. First, you are going to see this sticker, so it’s not shrinkwrapped. It’s from the test market launch of NES as far as we know.”

And moments after, Rick asks sellers their expected estimate, if the game ends being auctioned today. Then the seller expressed, “This is it, this is the one that started it all, it’s got rarity, it’s got popularity. Everyone knows Mario, and it’s got significance to collectors.”
Moreover, at last, Rick declines the offer and also hilariously expressed first he thought the sellers were crazy.
