    This Man Paid $15,000 For A NES Cartridge

    After parting with US $15,000, James Baker became the proud owner of one of 26 gold-colored NES cartridges made especially for the 1990 Nintendo World Championships. Remember, it's not a gold NES cart, it's a gold-colored NES cart. Says James:


    I've avoided collecting carts for a while — I always looked at them as a slippery slope, since there are just so many collectible carts out there to get. When I started, I concentrated on systems — I'm up to 130 now.

    A slippery slope? No James. More like a fucking expensive slope.
