DoctorEncore | 3,691 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 And I thought it was dumb when it was released. I wonder how much gold is actually in there. I'm pretty confident I could smelt my own for a fraction of the cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH | 4,903 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 This raises a completely different question. I remember reading in a game magazine in the 90s that some Saudi oil bajillionaire commissioned a solid gold Game Gear for his kid. I think it was official and, obviously, a one-off. The Wealthy Sauds like to basically burn money just because they are rolling in it but I can’t help but wonder, if it came up for auction, what would that thing go for?

You can flatten like an ounce out to the area of a football field. You could duplicate this for comparitively nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
