		</div><p>An unopened copy of Nintendo’s Super Mario 64 has sold at auction for 1.56 million US dollars (£1.12 million).</p>
<p>Heritage Auctions in Dallas said that the 1996 game sold on Sunday, breaking its previous record price for the sale of a single video game.</p>
<p>A spokesman did not immediately respond to an inquiry about who purchased the game.</p>
<p>Super Mario 64 was the best-selling game on the Nintendo 64 and the first to feature the Mario character in 3D, the auction house said in a statement.</p>
<p>The sale follows an unopened copy of Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda selling at auction Friday for 870,000 dollars (£625,000).</p>
<p>Valarie McLeckie, Heritage’s video game specialist, said the auction house was shocked to see a game sell for more than a million dollars two days after the Zelda game broke its past record.</p>
<p>In April, the auction house sold an unopened copy of Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros that was bought in 1986 and forgotten about in a desk drawer for 660,000 dollars (£475,000).</p>
