Collector's Q&A
How much is Mario Party worth?
As of June 2026, a loose cartridge typically sells for $36–$42. Complete-in-box copies sell for around $125. Live links in the Price Check panel show the latest numbers.
Why does complete-in-box cost more?
The original box and manual were routinely discarded, so surviving complete sets are genuinely scarce. The box and manual can add at least $73 over the loose price.
How do I spot a fake cartridge?
Authentic carts have a Nintendo-stamped board inside, factory-molded plastic seams, and a board serial that matches the region label. Phillips-head screws instead of Gamebit screws? Treat it as suspect.
