This curious object is very rare, but it's available now on Yahoo Auctions starting at a somewhat-reasonable $110, but who knows how high that will skyrocket up. If you're looking for a more expensive, less functional Nintendo, the Famicombox is really the way to go.

Wow, after all these years I thought I had seen most deviations of the NES but that is new one for me.

My curiosity is now piqued about the various ports on the back. I guess at least one is for some type of vending machine connector so that at an arcade somebody could put quarters into an interface to buy game time.
