Keep it boxed Donny. Once they've all gone, these are going to be worth a mint.

^ that

Some of the limited edition Dreamcasts are worth a tidy sum to a small fortune

yes keep it boxed. future historians will learn much about our civilisation, and it will prove that commodity fetishism is real

I am not sure what to do - I want to play it and I want it to be displayed...but then I could sell it and quadruple my money

Earlier last week they were selling for $20,000 in the States. Sure, that was probably a freak anomaly, but I think it's worth holding on to it for a month or two to see if you can get a similarly ridiculous amount.

Ok...so I will go and buy a normal PS4 and play that instead and keep this bad boy for a few months and then get rid.

Sony held a charity auction online in Japan for the first serialized anniversary console (it's number one out of 12,300). The auction recently came to a close, drawing 1,585 bids with the winning one coming in at 15,135,000 yen—or US$128,086. Wowzers. That's a lot.
Yeah...

It's hyped up right now so it might sell for a lot now. Wait two or three years and it'll probably sell for less than a new PS4. Of course if you go for the long game and wait till the next generation of consoles is released and THEN this might be worth a pretty penny.

You should do the opposite of what Kracus says because he has been largely unsuccessful in everything he's done.

I am likely to just keep it unless I need the cash for something. It's so pretty
