Fillerup states that his reasoning for listing the console for sale is so he can fund a "gaming place" in which attendees can mingle with like-minded individuals and "feel young again".Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube794kWatch on YouTube As for the console itself, the prototype was shown off at the Nintendo Space World 2000 convention prior to its official launch. While it doesn't contain any actual, functional hardware, it does house some LEDs to make it appear functional during the event.Other ways in which the prototype differs from the final build include a small window on the lid of the device to allow users to see the disc inside, the 'Reset', 'Power', and 'Open' indicators being printed in white rather than engraved, and the lack of a curved piece of plastic just below the side vents.It's also important to note that while the console itself isn't functional, it also won't come with the prototype controller, which also differs from the final build.Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube794k Blast from the pastWould you be willing to spend $100,000 on a non-functional prototype of the GameCube?
