A retro controller for over 31,000 euros

Game consoles are still being sold as a bet, as many experts say they offer much better gameplay compared to PCs and mobile devices. Among them, the PlayStation 4 gaming console from Sony stands out by far. To date, retailers have sold a total of 117 million of these gaming consoles. Thus, the PlayStation 4 became the fastest-selling gaming device of all time.

Nevertheless, there is also a lot of interest in retro gaming consoles. This is also proven by the recent purchase of a retro PlayStation controller. Namely, the seller got as much as 35,000 US dollars or more than 31,000 euros for it. This was actually a PlayStation game console controller that never saw the light of day. This console was actually the forerunner of the first PlayStation gaming console.

The unreleased PlayStation game console was actually a Super NES game console with an optical drive. Despite the initial enthusiasm of fans of console games, the novelty was never offered for sale. Only a few examples were produced in total. The sold controller has the actual design of a SNES console game controller with colored ABXY buttons. Instead of the SNES logo, however, it has the expected PlayStation logo.
