Here is a treat for all you collectors out there. Currently there is an auction on eBay for a Nintendo DS autographed by the legendary Shigeru Miyamoto.

Miyamoto is the mastermind behind classic game franchises including Mario Bros., Zelda, Donkey Kong and even Wii Fit. He is defiantly one of the most influential developers in the history of video games and we have the pleasure of worshiping his manuscript for years to come.

The auction started at $0.99 but that quickly escalated to $510 at the time of this writing. That’s a whole lot of scratch for this DS and the reserve price hasn’t been met yet. The auction closes closes on January 20, 2009, which gives bidders about a week to join in on the price war.

The person selling the autographed DS won it at E3 2005 in Los Angeles. He’s posted a picture of his pass to get into E3 to show he’s legit. The unused DS comes with an aluminum briefcase and can be shipped anywhere in the world.

I’m pretty sure the price on this is going to get ridiculously high by the time the auction ends. If you’ve got a couple thousand dollars sitting around in a PayPal account and are looking for something to spend it on all at once, throw your bid in the ring.
