The Most Valuable Video Game Of All Time

Stadium Events was released originally in Japan in 1986, then in the United States in 1987 and Germany in 1988. It was originally produced by game maker Bandai but after a short time Nintendo purchased the rights and decided to destroy all existing copies to make way for an updated version.

Today, the Stadium Events game cartridge alone without the box or instructions, is worth $3000. The version that the South Carolina Grandmother bought at Goodwill came in the box with a mint copy of the instructions. It was even wrapped in the original plastic, although at some point a slit had been cut so the actual game could be examined. These circumstances made the Grandmother’s $7.99 Goodwill find was worth $15,000! That’s enough to make it one of the most expensive video games ever sold. Had the plastic been uncut, it could have been worth more than $40,000.
