An auction for a used Nintendo DS from the Japanese government created a minor stir when the internet realized that it came bundled with a set of flash carts – you know, the exact sort typically used to play pirated games. The listing, as you might imagine, pretty quickly disappeared once that revelation took hold.
Officials of the Tottori Prefecture listed a thoroughly yellowed Nintendo DS Lite for auction with an estimated price of 1,000 yen, or just under $7 USD, sometime earlier this month, as Automaton reports. While the console's clearly seen better days, that's still a great price for the system, especially since it came bundled with three game cartridges.
