A copy of Kid Icarus for the Nintendo Entertainment System that was once worth less than $40 is now set to rake in thousands at an auction, after being discovered by accident in an attic.
According to Time, a Nevada man named Scott Reno found a sealed copy of Kid Icarus in his attic, which still had its receipt for $38.45. Reno investigated the value of the game in the hope that it might be worth a few hundred dollars, but it’s expected to potentially bring in around $10,000 dollars at auction.
Reno’s copy of Kid Icarus was graded at an 8.0 out of 10, which does not seem like a lot for a prized auction item, but it’s rare to find a sealed copy of Kid Icarus in such a good condition. The scarcity of the item means that only a handful of sealed copies of the game are in the hands of collectors, which is one of the reasons why Reno’s copy of the game is of such a high value.

Old video games are starting to achieve the same level of value as classic comics. No one expected that Nintendo Entertainment System games would ever be worth a lot of money back when they were first released, which means that there likely aren’t that many in pristine condition. The fact that many old Nintendo games were released in cheap cardboard boxes, compared to the hard plastic cases used by Sega, means that a lot of original boxes and manuals were damaged over time, so it’s a lot harder to find them in acceptable quality for auction.
Kid Icarus has been released on numerous digital platforms in the past and is currently available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers to download, but the physical version of the cartridge is a rare find. The series is mostly regarded as a cult hit for Nintendo, though the protagonist of the game has retained his popularity with the fans thanks to his appearances in the Super Smash Bros. series.
