The SNES CD prototype's appropriately prototyped controller

If it hadn't been for WiiFanboy I'd probably wait for a few more days till I wished you all the best for 2008 and wrote another post, but truth is this bit just can't be missed, for this bit is as rare a rarity as they get. It is, you see, the prototype controller of the never released SNES CD that Nintendo and Sony almost released and that finally evolved into the PlayStation. Most probably never knew such a thing existed, and to be honest I was pretty certain the SNES CD and early Play Station use a SNES controller...

...An unreleased development controller for use with the unreleased SNES CD dev kit. This is 1st party unreleased hardware...

Anyway. Try grabbing the SNES CD prototype controller @ eBay. Seller ships worldwide. Oh, and it's not cheap.
