Nintendo history in a box: 97 unseen Mario/Duck Hunt carts sat forgotten for six years
A collector discovered 97 unopened Nintendo Entertainment System cartridges of Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt, believed to be a rare variant with unique internal components and bilingual back labels. These cartridges, dated December 1, 1995, were authenticated by PSA, with five receiving a perfect 10 grade, a first for an NES cartridge. The find is significant for its rarity, unopened condition, and potential value, with some experts suggesting a five-figure valuation.
