The world of video games has a whole series of consoles that are the object of desire. Not so much because it is the newest, or the one that delivers the best graphics, but the one that becomes rare and, as a collector’s item, attracts a lot of attention. And although many consoles fall into this category, the most striking will be those that, in addition to being complicated, have increased their price. On this occasion, we take a look at 5 of the most wanted and expensive consoles to get.

Over the years, PlayStation has had a lot of limited edition consoles, but one of the most important for the company was when the first PlayStation managed to sell 10 million units. This edition, which comes in a dark blue, is known as the ‘10 Million Model’ and there are currently 300 known models. To get it new, it costs $26,679.
4 – NES Test Station

This definitely can’t be considered a console. Heck, it’s not something anyone should have in their living room. This is actually a device used by Nintendo employees to diagnose the NES and find defects. Finding these consoles new can cost anywhere from $21,000 to $85,200.
3 – Atari Cosmos

Atari is a name we recognize as pioneers in home video games, and at one point sought to approach the handheld sector. The Atari Cosmos -which sounds like a great sports team- was in development for 3 years until it was cancelled. Although there are not many units on the wild, the ones that have actually sold are empty shells that have reached the value of $25,903.
2 – Wii Supreme
