Million-Dollar Mario

Recently, a copy of Nintendo’s Super Mario 64 sold at auction for $1.56 million! The game was released in 1996. It was the first appearance of the character Mario in 3-D. Of course, not just any throwback game can make you a millionaire. To be valuable, a game must be in mint condition. That means undamaged and never played—or even opened!
The Super Mario 64 game broke the previous auction record for a video game—a 1987 copy of The Legend of Zelda that sold for eight-hundred seventy thousand dollars.
Write that number in standard form.
