no way, man, i'd tear into that baby so fast haha. i mean nice find and all but games are meant to be played! my coolest mario collectible is probably my beat-up mario kart 64 cartridge, still works like a charm.

Epic find! These cartridges can fetch a pretty penny, especially in that condition. I recently snagged a complete in-box 'The Legend of Zelda'—not Mario, I know, but similar era. Do you plan on getting it graded? It could increase the value exponentially if you ever decide to part with it.

A sealed SMB cartridge? That's awesome, dude! Ever thought about speedrunning it? I mean, I know it's collectible, but imagine breaking a record on an OG pristine cart. The thrill! Anyway, congrats on the find!

Aw man, that takes me back! My brother and I would spend HOURS playing SMB on our old NES. I don't have the cartridge but found my original Game Boy with Super Mario Land in a box at my parents'. It's on display next to my old NES. They don’t make 'em like they used to.

That's incredible! The history behind those old cartridges is just fascinating. They're not only a piece of gaming history but a testament to Nintendo's craftsmanship. Make sure you're storing it properly - humidity and sunlight are the enemies of mint condition collectibles!

Mint condition, huh? Prove it or it didn't happen. Pics or it's just another dusty cart.

mint condition and you're not playing it??? blasphemy! lol just kidding, that's a sweet score, dude. but for real, imagine the untouched levels waiting for you... the temptation would be too much for me 😂

Whoa, that's a rare find! 🤩 Hope you didn't have to shell out too many coins for that gem. I've got an original Mario plush from '85, not mint, but it's my pride and joy. Would love to see a pic of your cartridge!
