This Gold Zelda Triforce Gameboy Advance SP Signed by Shigeru Miyamoto recently sold for $2,157.86 on eBay. He is the creator of the Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, Star Fox, Wave Race, and Pikmin video game series’ for Nintendo. He is one of the world’s most celebrated game designers, and is often called the father of modern video gaming.

You are bidding on an extremely limited edition Nintendo Gameboy Advance system. This piece is a fully functional “Gold Legend of Zelda Triforce edition”. It is one of thirty systems worldwide that was signed by the legendary gaming guru Shigeru Miyamoto - creator of renown industry icons such as Super Mario, The legend of Zelda, and Donkey Kong.

This item was purchased on May 14th 2005, at the grand opening of the official Nintendo World store in New York city.
Along with the other 29 systems, it was hand signed, in permanent black felt marker, by Mr. Miyamoto, and sold to the first 30 people who were lucky enough to be among the first in line.

It has since been kept in a smoke-free home, and is in it’s original packaging, which has been opened twice in order to test the functionality of the piece, and to take pictures for this auction. It has never been played, and the system along with it’s box, cables, manuals and inserts are all in their original sleeves, and in PRISTINE condition. I’m an avid videogame collector, and am very very careful when storing and handling every piece in my collection.

To validate the authenticity of this collector’s item, it comes with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by the official Nintendo World store. The certificate specifies that this particular item is authentic, has a brief history and picture of Mr. Miyamoto along with Nintendo World’s contact information and item-specific serial number.

The package also includes a gold game cartridge of the critically acclaimed “Legend of Zelda; Minish Cap” that came with the item, and has also been tested for functionality.
