How utterly undignified, my good man. You don't PLAY a half-million-dollar console; you place it on a pedestal, and brag to your other rich friends about how you managed to waste an amount of money on which ten normal families could live comfortably for a year. Don't you know that comparing ego-inflating wastes of money is what rich people DO?Gildan Bladeborn said:You can graft all sorts of precious metals onto it in an attempt to make it classy, but in the end you're still performing the exact same undignified waggles that the plebian Wii owners are, only now you look even sillier because you're waggling on a console that costs roughly 500 grand.
Someone who counts with their finger would have problems counting up to 500,000, maybe that's why he would just sign the check...Gingerman said:Don't know why anyone would want to spend that amount of money on a shiny paper weight, someone who counts with their fingers I guess.
Yeah srsly? does the presdident of Nintendo even have one??1deano1 said:This is just completely bonkers... Who in their right mind is actually going to buy one of these?
THEN the RRoD rate would go from 54% to 110%Pendragon9 said:Damn!
Next up I expect there to be a platinum 360, just cause Microsoft has to improve on everything.
I must agree with above poster. I hardly imagine these were meant to be bought by ordinary people. Only for advertising by owners of huge Nintendo-related companies. Or Jesus. Jesus needs a Wii too. Only his needs to be epic.FISHFINGERS said:Nobody buys them, things like this almost always end up as display pieces for the company.Doug said:Or someone who so much money they can afford to show off.MetaKnight19 said:Someone with more money than sense, most likely.Simalacrum said:I...I...

[HEADING=2]WHO ACTUALLY BUYS THIS CRAP?![/HEADING]
They also generate press interest and act as another form of advertising.
Well either that or the Liverpool based company plan on selling them to Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and Cilla Black.
Didn't make the PS3 any closer to a fair price OR any less of a turd either lol.Raptorace18 said:This doesn't make the Wii any less of a turd.
Became extremely bored while reading this...I assume that's what normal people think of a gold console. If anything, a sane person would get a golden, diamond encrusted toilet. Classyhebdomad said:Well this beats it. A Gold Ferrari 599.

I think you would have to be some kind of bond villain to own such a car. (maybe gold finger?)
Apparently I need to read more thoroughly before posting.Doug said:And yet, Saddam Hussien had solid gold toilets. Some people REALLY want to show off.
Dont bash Wii sports man, get blasted and try it with a bunch of your friends.HardRockSamurai said:Oh please.
Seeing as the Wii's sales figures are through the roof, they might as well be made of gold already.
[small]Does it come with a solid gold Wii Sports?[/small]

Party resulted in a broken finger and sprained ankle + a shit ton of great stories to tell your kids.
No problems then, I thought it was sarcastic like troller in the first post. Not like its a real problem anyway...HardRockSamurai said:umm, I'm not bashing Wii Sports.
