Rare Prototype Super Famicom with Headphone Jack Up for Auction: What’s It Worth?

Hello, my fellow tech enthusiasts! Have you ever seen a prototype Super Famicom with a headphone jack? Well, over on the Japanese Yahoo Auctions site, there is one listed that is causing quite a stir. This pre-production version of the Super Famicom has some unique features that make it stand out from the eventual production model.

Some of the differences include a headphone jack and volume wheel on the side, a big red power switch, and controller ports on the left side of the console. The design touches on this prototype harken back to earlier versions of the console that were never released to the public.

Comparing it to the final release, you can see just how different this prototype is. The final version of the Super Famicom looks quite different from this early design. It’s fascinating to see how the design of consoles evolves from concept to production.

Similar lost Nintendo prototypes have surfaced in the past, such as the Nintendo / Sony PlayStation and an unreleased wired version of the Wiimote. These rare finds are highly sought after by collectors and historians alike.

The current bid for this Super Famicom prototype is just over one million yen, with more than five days left in the auction. It will be interesting to see how much this piece of gaming history ends up selling for.
