Ridiculously tacky and overpriced Wii

Wow… For those people out there who have far too much money and don’t want to put it to any good use, this could be the present for you and yourself. The Nintendo Wii Supreme, labeled by the designers as “the world’s most expensive games console” is an example of things wrong with this world. It’s made with 5.5 pounds of solid 22ct gold with the front buttons studded with 78 0.25 carats diamonds. Each of the three Nintendo Wii Supremes are an audacious $490,000 each and take six months to create.

A half million dollars could go to a nearly infinite number of better uses. Its sad that someone would spend it on something so ugly instead of helping better the world as a whole. So many starving kids in Africa could have a regular Wii for that price; which they could then sell for food.
