Wii prototype auction is disappointing

eBay seller funky_fruits put one of the rarest items we’ve ever seen on eBay: a one-of-a-kind Wii prototype system, total with pre-production controller. Produced well in advance of the final system’s design, that item features strange properties like “Sensor Bar port for detection of anyone coming within 5m of Nintendo Wii[TM] prototype - automatically vaporises intruders,” “Accessory port on bottom of Wii isolated which can additionally control your TV and VCR,” and “Wireless Free.”

How could we possibly be disappointed by an item that

is so mighty that “Everything is just shoved into memory considering there is so much of it - blinking fast”? considering the auction has been ended early by the seller. Nintendo must have gotten to him and threatened to vaporize him like they did the 10 scientists who originally created the system while living in a abandoned Japanese airfield.
