Super Nintendo Prototype Is Up For Auction And Getting Ridiculously High Bids [Update: The Auction's Been Wipe

An original prototype of Nintendo’s Super Famicom, Japan’s version of the SNES, was up for auction with recent bids pushing the grey piece of gaming history north of $3.2 million. Then, earlier today, the auction was abruptly pulled offline, potentially over fraudulent bids. The prototype for sale on Yahoo! Auctions Japan differed from the final system in few different ways.

“I think this has extreme nostalgic appeal because we all spent so long staring at these prototypes and dreaming of a time we could finally buy this amazing new Nintendo,” Digital Eclipse editorial director Chris Kohler wrote on Twitter. While the price started in the mere hundreds, it’s now jumped well beyond what anyone seemed to expect.
