The first ever 20th Anniversary Edition PS4 could be back up for grabs

4.6
The winner of the top bid at last month’s 20th Anniversary PlayStation 4 auction failed to deliver, but Sony donated the amount to charity anyway.

Back in January, Sony offered a 20th Anniversary Edition PlayStation 4 with the serial number #00001 to the highest bidder. Sony promised to donate whatever amount it receives to charity.

According to DualShockers, Sony revealed today that the winner failed to deliver the amount, which has delayed the sale of that unit.

The unit with the #00001 serial number will be displayed at the firm’s showroom in Ginza, Tokyo, starting February 21.

As for the donation, Sony confirmed that it will donate the bid amount as promised. The money will go to Save the Children charity.

DeluxeHazard Even though the money will go to charity, I find it stupid how somebody would pay so much for a console. They could just buy a cheaper, normal one and donate money to charity themselves.


It isn't about the system. It is about the history. 20th anniversary of one of Sony's biggest departments, Play Station. The 20th Ann. Edition only released 12,000, plus this is the "#00001.

All about the history.

If there was 1 piece of gum left in the world. All it is, is a piece of gum. But only 1 left? Imagine the value of that....#MastercardPriceless
