Gold’s price surge drives Narcos into illegal mining in the Amazon
Federal crackdown on environmental crimes and a gold rally that’s sent prices to record highs has driven the industry into further darkness.
If you have more than $8K (and counting) and are willing to spend that sum on a gold-plated Nintendo Entertainment System, then this article will interest you.
At this very moment, a couple of video games-lovers has put one of the only 10 such consoles made by hardware manufacturer Analogue last year up for sale on eBay.
So far the console, created to celebrate the Legend of Zelda’s 30th anniversary, has fetched $8,100 and the auction still has four more days to go.

The unit includes an original, gold coloured Legend of Zelda cartridge.
The original units were all sold out last year, and went for equally expensive, though a bit more reasonable price of $4,999.
