    Meh, still worthless, I hear Giant Bomb say ^^
     
    This follows on from the same company showcasing a gold PS3 recently.  I hate "bling", this just looks cheap and tacky to me, as does their gold PS3.

    These gold consoles just look ugly to me. The black one and even the white one looks much better.

    Let them eat .. a solid gold Wii ? Just when I thought we'd all learnt a little humility during this global recession and Nintendo goes and shatters my illusions with a 22ct piece of shit.

    Last I checked Nintendo was not affiliated with those Hughes people. Also, video games are luxury goods anyway. If you want humility, don't game.

    Hughes then. Really doesn't make a difference. Why not just gold plate peoples eyeballs, so everything they see appears gold ?

    So it's not actually solid gold. I mean it has Wii innards.
