eBay Nutcase of the Week: Boy bids £200,000 for second-hand Nintendo Wii
A child who has yet to learn the true value of money went crazy on eBay, using his granddad’s login details to bid £200,000 for a Nintendo Wii.
Unsurprisingly, five-year-old Archie Lovett won the auction.
Ray Atkinson, 54, then received an email asking him for £197,654. Imagine how…
Every Dreamcast game ever made up for auction – it is your duty to enter the bidding war
Hopefully it isn’t necessary to explain to you the significance of SEGA’s Dreamcast. It was the best console ever, especially as Electronic Arts didn’t release any games for it so there was no FIFA/Madden/NHL to trudge through every year – just 100% SOLID GOLD SEGA and SEGA-approved arcade magic.
Anyway. One man has acquired an original copy of every Japanese Dreamcast game ever released. Which, to be fair, most gamers should’ve done themselves during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
But if you didn’t do your duty at the time – and therefore inadvertently contributed towards today’s dismal gaming scene – you can now make amends by buying every Japanese DC game in one bulk lot – for the never-to-be-repeated bargain price of $19,999.99.

UK Apple fans to be treated to our own Black Friday sale, for tomorrow only!
It may not be on par with America’s Black Friday sale last week, but currently the UK is going through some sort of pre-holiday sales-blitz, with most high street stores offering at least 20% off their wares. It’s getting to the point where I’m refusing to pay full-price now, I’m just waiting for the day when I throw a diva strop in Sainsbury’s, horrified that their skim milk isn’t discounted!
Thankfully Apple fanboys won’t have to start throwing diva strops anytime soon, as the big Jobs has kindly ordered a discount on a huge range of Apple…
Is Rupert Murdoch eyeing up LinkedIn for a possible acquisition?
This geezer attempting a smile here is none other than Rupert Murdoch, CEO of News Corp. They already own MySpace, and a bunch of other online properties, but you see, herein lies the problem: old Mr. Murdoch is quite greedy, and if rumours are true, he’s considering buying LinkedIn.
The possible acquisition is rumoured to take place in January 2008, and as Tech Crunch states, LinkedIn’s…
J-Lo joins the USB stick revolution with wood-based album release
The big-bottomed star of numerous perfume adverts is embracing the new USB stick trend, with her latest album ‘Brave’ coming on a ludicrously luxurious custom memory stick.
Jenny’s USB drives are rather outrageously crafted from African mahogany, and are being produce by the overly expensive thing-customisers at Gresso…

After being hit with a £41m fine for illegally importing its CDs from the wrong bit of the world, poor old discount music store CD Wow! is in trouble again.
This time, it’s been accused of, well, lying to people…
