22-Year-Old Sells Ultra-Rare 1987 Zelda Game for Potential $700,000 Payday
- 22-year-old Kiro recently acquired a sealed copy of the 1987 video game The Legend of Zelda, which his family purchased in 1987 for $29.87
- Kiro initially tried selling it on eBay for $17,000 before realizing its true collectible value after getting many higher offers
- The copy is from the first production run, making it ultra-rare, and was professionally graded before going to auction
- A similar sealed copy sold for $870,000 at auction in 2021, so Kiro's copy could fetch over $700,000
- If it sells for a high price, Kiro plans to invest the money to build long-term wealth for himself and his family
