A 9.6 graded copy of Pokemon FireRed just went for a big chunk of change!
The secondary market for graded video games has drastically risen over the last few years, and Pokemon remains one of the most popular video game franchises of all-time. That's a perfect recipe for anyone that happens to have a sealed copy of an older Pokemon game, and one Wata graded game just went for a whole lot of money. Earlier this month, a 9.6 graded copy of Pokemon FireRed sold for $3,109 at auction. It's the first time a Wata 9.
News of the sale was shared by @GoCollect on Twitter, and an image of the graded copy can be found in the Tweet embedded below. 🎮A #Wata 9.6 #Pokemon Fire Red #video game sold on 9/19 for $3,109 after 21 bids through @MComicConnect.

The sale of graded video games has become controversial among some gamers. Longtime fans of retro video games have taken issue with the way overall prices have been driven up, and there have been accuations of artificial manipulation of the market. Wata Games in particular has been accused of manipulating the values of retro video games in a class-action lawsuit filed earlier this year.
