Nintendo Super Mario 64 Nintendo 64 N64 Game Pak Cartridge E NTSC-U/C
Super Mario 64 (N64)
Super Mario 64 launched with the N64 in North America on September 29, 1996, and Nintendo's marketing chief called it the console's killer app. It sold more than two million copies there in its first three months and finished as the best-selling N64 game, at nearly 12 million by 2015. Developers have cited its camera and 360-degree analog control as the template for 3D platformers. Nintendo later moved it into the Player's Choice line, so you'll see boxes with a yellow N64 logo. Japan got a 1997 version with Rumble Pak support, but the US cart doesn't rumble. In July 2021 a sealed copy sold at auction for more than any video game before it. Most buyers want a working loose cart or a box with its manual.

Before you plug it in
The version, the region and what it needs
- Which one is it
- The North American cart is the original 1996 release. Later boxes are the Player's Choice reissue, marked by a yellow background behind the N64 logo in the top right corner. The Japan-only 1997 Rumble Pak version is a different cart, and the US one doesn't rumble.
- RegionNTSC-U (North America)
- This is the North American (NTSC) cart for US and Canadian consoles. Japanese consoles share the NTSC lockout but a different notch layout, so it needs a converter there, and a PAL console's lockout chip refuses it.
- Saves
- Saves go to a small EEPROM chip on the cart board, which keeps data without power. There's no save battery to die or replace.
Should come with it
- Complete in box means the cart, the box and the instruction manual
- Player's Choice copies are the same game in a later box
Check the listing photos against this list, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing piece should come off the price.
What to check
Carts that won't start are usually dirty on the contacts. On complete copies, the cardboard box and the manual are what wear, so condition there matters more than the cart.
- 01Label: Zoom in on the cart label in the photos. It should be flat and clean with no peeling or tears.
- 02Screws: Check the two screws on the back of the cart. Nintendo used 3.8 mm Gamebit security screws, so plain heads mean it's been opened.
- 03Box version: Look at the N64 logo on the box front in the photos. A yellow background marks the Player's Choice reissue.
- 04Manual: Ask whether the manual is in the box. A complete copy has the box, the manual and the cart.
- 05Box condition: Check the box corners and flaps in the photos. They should be square with no tears or crushing.
- 06Region: Check the title and box for the North American release. A PAL cart won't boot on a US console.
- 07Running: Ask for a photo of the title screen on a TV. It should load cleanly with no garbled graphics.
- 08Save: On arrival, start a file, collect a star and power off. The save should be there when you turn it back on.

Buying guide
Which one to buy
§ Oct 15, 2026We'd buy the loose cart titled tested and authentic at $51 delivered from a 100% seller, with a clean label in the photo. There are at least 156 for sale. Loose carts ask about $37 to $60 delivered, which is most of the $50 to $140 band, while complete-in-box copies start around $129 and run to $240. A yellow background behind the N64 logo on the box marks the Player's Choice reissue, the same game in a later box. Check the two screws on the back of the cart for Nintendo's security heads and the label for peeling; it saves to a chip on the cart, so there's no battery to worry about.
