    Nintendo Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda Prototype Console

    The following Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda prototypes were discovered via an e-waste seller in China, both are missing the motherboards.

    We can tell these are prototypes, going by the serial information which shows BBE in the front which is used during production.

    PlayStation 3 "D' DIA PVT2" Prototype Console

    The following item is a rather abused prototype PlayStation 3 D' DIA PVT2, the unit was originally assumed to have been modified however it appears this is a custom job by SONY themselves for testing the new thermals.

    This unit would be a CBEH as it is running in CEX (Retail) mode. But the actual model is unknown due to lack of stickers.

    Nintendo DSi Zone Box

    Nintendo Zone was a download service and an extension of the DS Download Station. Users could access content, third-party data, and other services from a hotspot or download station. The service had demos of upcoming and currently available games and may have location-specific content. When the service debuted, users could also connect to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and DSi Shop.

    The Nintendo Zone Viewer application allows the Nintendo DSi and 3DS to detect and use the Nintendo Zone service. This application has been discontinued worldwide, but all other Nintendo Zone functionality remains.
