A sealed copy of Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64 just set the record for the most expensive video game ever sold.

It went for $1.56 million at an auction.

This record broke one that was just set last Friday from the same auction house. It was another Nintendo game, an unopened 1986 Legend of Zelda for the NES, sold for $870,000.

The Zelda game was a very rare, original version and only a handful were made. So yours most likely isn’t one of them.

In the case of Mario, less than five copies are known to exist that are still sealed and in such excellent condition.

The Tampa Bay Lighting celebrated their Stanley Cup victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Monday.

The beer will be available in Tampa area bars for a limited time.
