So you may have heard of a little thing called the Sega Pluto by now on this site. Well, the insane auction for it just ended at a final bid of $7,600.00. You read that correctly: over seven thousand dollars. While I am a huge Sega Saturn fan, and the Pluto is basically a Sega Saturn with a built-in modem, I could not even imagine paying this much for a single videogame-related object. I say this mainly because I am actually jealous of the 2 Pluto-owners in the world. What’s even more insane is when you check the “bid history,” and see that the bidding went from the starting bid of $50 to $7,500 in one bid. ONE BID. Someone saw this auction, decided his kids weren’t going to college, and took out a loan at the bank.
In all honesty though, KidVid666 either just bought himself a car, or put a downpayment on a new house, because an extreme Sega fan just won his own Christmas gift for the next 20 years.

The joke is that there’s still no definitive evidence to support the idea that this is a legitimate, Sega produced console.
It’s incredibly likely that it is, but not 100% definite.
