The Real Value of Video Game Gems in US Dollars.

Forbes estimates that one of Zelda's rupees is worth around $0.62, with green rupees worth approximately $0.62, blue rupees worth $3.10, red rupees $12.40, and purple rupees $31. Link's clothing can be surprisingly expensive when converting currencies, with the early-game Hylian armor set costing the equivalent of around $200 in the game's shops. Tears of the Kingdom is the fastest-selling game in the nearly 40-year history of the Zelda franchise, selling 10 million units worldwide in the three days after launch.
