Dubai's wealthy gamers can now purchase a gold PS4, Xbox One

4.8
Prominent Dubai retailer Jumbo Electronics has announced plans to unveil custom PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles made of rose gold, claims regional news outlet Emirates 24/7.

According to the report, the console is being crafted by Italian jeweller Gatti and will initially be available for purchase at the ongoing Games14 conference in Dubai. If you're interested in scoring one of these gaudy gaming machines, you'd better bring your wallet: While the tech specs of these special consoles match their plastic counterparts, each machine features a price tag of 50,000 UAE Dirhams - about $13,612 here in the United States.

"We are particularly excited to be launching the most unique and valuable gaming consoles in the world at Games14, specially created by Gatti," Jumbo Electronics head Nadeem Khanzadah told Emirates 24/7. "Available to both Xbox and PS4 fans, the high-end materials and exquisite detailing of the gold consoles make it a great collectible item for gamers who love luxury."

Ethics that must get HOT. But really, who would spend that much on a console?


Dubai is the richest country in the world. Google "Dubai Architecture" some of the buildings there are just amazing. It's also the home of the world's ONLY 7 Star Hotel, Which happens to be under-water :)

Not sure if that picture represents the gold console entirely, actually looks worse than the normal colour.

Yea, definitely can't afford that. Sean can though.

Now that is quite an insane price, i personally don't really like the look of it either. I'm sure a few people would want to purchase one for novelty purposes though provided that they have that kind of disposable income

R3vo 13 grand for a piece of crap console, hell no. I rather throw that into a pc, I rather game in 4k resolution and have a super sick setup then have a golden console. How can some one justify buying one of these?


Oh look, another PC elitist who thinks his opinion is law.

Guess what, people will buy want they want with their own hard earned money.

Quit whining because you could only ever dream of being able to spend that much money on a gaming device.

My opinion is exactly that, my opinion, and on a forum site where I can comment on articles I am going to express my opinion so you can **** off if you don't like it.

JEP you are 100% spot on! Just because PC gamers get more for their money doesnt mean it the best. I have a good gaming pc and an xbox one and love em both but console is where its at imo
