This past week I went and rewatched the full unboxing playlist. I just want to say thank you for making all these videos and being a part of our lives. I dont know how often people tell you, but it is very appreciated! (and same for your new ASMR channel too!)
***** Don't need to insult somebody just because they share their opinions. I agree the limited edition makes it way better, but you don't have to shit on people who don't agree.
Wow ! I can't believe it's already been 20 years since my dad bought the original PlayStation as a graduation gift, my first game was Nba shoot out, but I discovered a whole sleek collection of games available within the years, especially ff 7, along with resident evil, grand turismo, silent hill, gta, etc etc. Thank you for sharing the unboxing video, I'm patiently waiting on Saturday, it seems Sony is going to raffle the tickets for purchasing such a beautiful console, kudos to Sony!
I watched the PlayStation Experience Via Twitch and stayed tuned to Twitter for the Pre - Order Link. The link appeared and I clicked on it just 10 seconds after! Added the PS4 to my cart, checked out with PayPal and guess what... They don't ship internationally! PlayStation could have at least mentioned that it was only going to be available for US customers LOL
Now that is what I call a "desirable package", a gray box! The minimalistic-styled packaging where less is better as in terms of pictures of the console on the box or some cheesy theme. All you have is just gray with a rainbow-colored logo. Very cool package! Great video, keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing more videos like this.
Very cool item and great unboxing video. I remember fondly the days when consoles didn't just come in black and white but also technology grey, green, purple, silver etc. Heck the N64 came in loads of different colors. I kind of wish modern consoles could have that kind of fun with their color schemes again.
YogurtStorm You're absolutely right, I was thinking of the Funtastic series. But Japan got a few exclusive colors including an awesome gray and white version. It looks amazing.
Its hard to believe that I'm older then PlayStation, I'm 23 years old and I got my ps1 when I was 5. If this system came preloaded with some old games (like spyro or crash banitcoot etc.) It would bring back some good memories.
Congrats Finngamer, you are one lucky collector. Sony is so good to their fans, the rest of us to go on ebay and pay triple the price for this beautiful system.
Uh it's really cool. The original logo is such a nice touch too. Thanks for doing this unboxing! I doubt I'll be able to get my own but it's still cool to see Sony harken back to its yesteryears.
I can't believe a listing on ebay has bids over $10,000. Now that might not sell for that price, but so stupid how people would even consider spending $10k on a few hundred dollar gaming system. People are so dumb.
Supply and Demand!!! It will only fetch as much as people are willing to pay. With only 12,300 produced on the Planet I guarantee this edition will blow past $10,000 easily. There are those who will sell there Limited PS4 on E bay for $2,000 or less, its a lot of money for most. But this rare collectible's value is already being appraised in the collectors market for between $25,000 to $35,000, Depending on your number. Compare it to a rare a rare car it may of sold new for $1000 50 years ago, now depending how many are left its could be valued in the millions. Collectibles aren't for everybody.
Joshua Tafoya Nah, this will not end up over $10,000. Not even close. People paying those sums at the moment are just impatient and rich.There are a dozen different Dreamcast limited editions, with production runs such as 200, 500, 2000 and 10000, for example, and none of them are even close to $10,000. In fact most of them don't even break the $1,000 mark. And Dreamcast has a cult following among collectors.That's not to say that PlayStation isn't a bigger brand by a wide margin, and this is a very cool edition, so I'd wager this will settle between $1,000-2,000.
Joshua Tafoya Most likely the consoles on eBay that are fetching those amounts are fake bidders that are putting in high bids just to piss off the scalpers... they are not obligated to pay after the listing has ended (even though eBay may make seem like it).
I get the point your making and in most case's you'd be correct. But those with money dictate the market. And there lining up on Ebay picking these systems off one at a time. A few years from now you'll be more likely to have a big foot sighting then find one of these on the market. On the other hand I hope I'm wrong I wouldn't mind owning one some day.
She's a real beaut! I might have to get one myself ;) If I was rich I'd already have one. I'd at least like to get my hands on that controller, I love retro, nostalgic stuff. Well done, lucky Finn.
It is kinda sad that Xbox one didn't quite get the same treatment. The console design of PS4 is so sleek, it makes Xbox one look decade old :(. I loved playing on these consoles.
Iv been a fan since they came out the demo I played with the gecko gave very me so many good memory's Even now saying this my eyes water up I love the Playstation the music it's amazing
Man, I really want this. Idc about it being limited edition, I want it because of the color and engravings on the ps4, the ds4, and the ps camera. I hope they make another version of this with at least the same color.
It's so beautiful, I wish I had one! I still haven't been able to buy one, although there aren't any games I want to play for now... Really jealous :) Thanks for showing us!
I really hope Nintendo makes an NES themed Wii U next year for the 30th anniversary. And a disc that has ALL of the black box launch games. I would buy two of those. Lol
I watch all your videos man it makes me wanna become a game collector as well I have a small collection but I really enjoy your ASMR videos as well watched all of them and the ones from Japan where awesome stuff and I wanna try those chips that you ate in the ASMR video how much did you pay for that limited ps4? Anyway thanks for the videos keep them coming and would you ever visit the United states?
tyrone rutherford Thanks for watching. :) I got this for free as a promotion from Sony. I've visited USA once, I'll surely come there again. The trip would most likely be to the east coast.
Heya fellow N64Forever'er! So happy to see you got one of these systems, I'm going to be 100% alert on Saturday to snag mine up as well! Wish me luck ^_^
It looks really nice the grey looks great but I wouldn't be paying thousands like some are listed on ebay for something which is really just a different colour. But great if you got one for free though that's a nice bonus :)
I've only been alive 15 years to enjoy PlayStation. I already have a PS4 unfortunately, and with their being a limited amount I'll probably be spending a couple thousand US dollars on one of these.
I can't see why this console is so special, the grey color is kind of dull. The orginal Playstation was not much to look at in the first place. The white PS4 however is a beauty and not hard to find in stores.
I miss those times where gamers didn't care about graphics and played the games enjoying them.. Final fantasy 7, Parasite Eve, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Chrono Cross.. Man evolution is shit :c
Hey finngamer this holiday I planned on buying a ps4 or an xbox one and im leaning towards the ps4. Can I be satisfied this gen with a ps4 because if I buy one then I might not buy and xbox one or if I buy an xbox one I wont buy a ps4. Which would you recommend? I also have a wii u that I absolutely love so I do not need a wii u but would recommend the ps4 or xbox one? I dont really need multi media stuff I just want a very reliable and powerful gaming console for my third party games and some exclusives
059hambone Should be the PS4, then. So far most multiplatforms have been better on the PS4, which is the more powerful machine. For exclusives, it just comes down to preferences.
finngamer thank you! Im going to get a ps4 for sure now. I had owned a xbox 360 and was a bit worried about the controller change to ps4 but now that i know it runs 3rd party games better im happy. And plus I like playstation exclusives a lot better than xbox exclusives thank you for helping me make my decision!
I have them both. They are both fantastic machines. Xbox One has a few killer exclusives that made it worth getting the holiday bundle for 329. It also connects to your cable box, and everything else in your entertainment system including PS4. I find certain games do look more vibrant on XBO than PS4, but not better looking necessarily. PS4 is still king of my entertainment center though, but to be honest I don't even use my ps4 for exclusives like I did my PS3.. There aren't enough I have played that really grab me, but I use it for GTA, COD, Far Cry, and fantastic Indy games. They have the best and really only free to play games, and they aren't too bad either. So each system is very good.
Really digging the colors and engravings here! I would've much rather preferred an actual PS1 console in a nice limited edition design, though. I don't like the shape of the PS4. Every model after the original PS2 Fat model looks ugly to me. And as of now there's no games that would motivate me to buy this thing. Too bad, maybe the 25th anniversary model will be mine.
finngamer That's true, but it isn't a secret you prefer nintendo and ms, nothing wrong with that, we all have our favorites. Either way I think Nick was making a joke anyways lol.
Thanks! It was a tongue in cheek comment! All gamers have their favourites and like Finn I also play games across all consoles but unlike Finn in my case I do have a soft spot for Sony above the others! Whereas Finn did have to choose his words carefully not wishing to offend his generous benefactor in this case! Who can blame him! If I was offered an ultra limited Nintendo console I would be daft to say "no thanks I'm a bigger fan of Sony"! So we let Finn off the hook here as he did what we all would do and gracefully accept the fantastic giveaway!
This past week I went and rewatched the full unboxing playlist. I just want to say thank you for making all these videos and being a part of our lives. I dont know how often people tell you, but it is very appreciated! (and same for your new ASMR channel too!)
TheJapanCodeASMR You rewatched ALL my unboxings? Wow, that's dedication. :) That is of course very nice to hear, I'm glad to be of service. :)
finngamer Let's just say I was craving some unintentional ASMR and well, your unboxings are the reason I even know about it :)
I kind of despise them for making something this cool in limited numbers. It's not even good for them.
Truly Atomic Agree. No need for the "retarted" comment. Keep it mature, pal.
***** Don't need to insult somebody just because they share their opinions. I agree the limited edition makes it way better, but you don't have to shit on people who don't agree.
It's to make you buy them really quickly for quick money for them
+Bob Smith 12,000 or so units isn't that much money considering the millions they've already sold.
I love this color! And the design on the actual console itself is beautiful!
The most badass version of any new gen system. Love the nostalgia. To another 20+ years of Playstation, because it's here to stay.
Better than the PS4 Pro 500 Million Edition?
Wow ! I can't believe it's already been 20 years since my dad bought the original PlayStation as a graduation gift, my first game was Nba shoot out, but I discovered a whole sleek collection of games available within the years, especially ff 7, along with resident evil, grand turismo, silent hill, gta, etc etc.

The N64 had fantastic color variations! Especially some of the rarer japanese models :)
YogurtStorm
You're absolutely right, I was thinking of the Funtastic series. But Japan got a few exclusive colors including an awesome gray and white version. It looks amazing.
Wow! Very nice! I would love to get my hands on this... at least the controller!
I know it's so cool!
Yeah, it would be cool of them to release at least the controller separately.
i hope they release the controller seperately id feel like i was 7 all over again if they did
I’ll sell you 1 ?
Its hard to believe that I'm older then PlayStation, I'm 23 years old and I got my ps1 when I was 5. If this system came preloaded with some old games (like spyro or crash banitcoot etc.) It would bring back some good memories.
The thing i love most is the controller with the original PS symbol on the home button.. Omg
omg, i envy you that you got this. congratulations, it's a must own for every serious playstation lover
Congrats Finngamer, you are one lucky collector. Sony is so good to their fans, the rest of us to go on ebay and pay triple the price for this beautiful system.
Lucky dog. Love all your videos. This is one of your best. Thank you.
I don't own a ps4 but this is pretty sweet used to love the ps1 can't believe it's 20 years old!
Uh it's really cool. The original logo is such a nice touch too. Thanks for doing this unboxing! I doubt I'll be able to get my own but it's still cool to see Sony harken back to its yesteryears.
Really cool thing for playstation to do , it must feel good to know a giant company thought of you to give you this , great unboxing
Man that looks awesome
Really cool console. Can't wait for the Sony Experience this weekend won't be there in person but will watch livestream of course.
Lucky guy, you deserve it though mate. You have splashed out enough over the years, that's for sure.
I can't believe a listing on ebay has bids over $10,000. Now that might not sell for that price, but so stupid how people would even consider spending $10k on a few hundred dollar gaming system. People are so dumb.

***** can you confirm that he actually payed?
You are one incredibly lucky man and I am heavily envious.
Oh wow.. That controller is freaking awesome :0
That's awesome. That controller is sick.
Beautiful machine, congratulations on getting one! :)
Congratulations, well deserved so have fun :)
Wow great video. That is so awesome that Sony did this, great piece to a collection.
It makes me sad knowing that I'll never get my hands on this... It's just so damn nice!
everything is possible in this world
I love all the on boxing videos because it made mine go up in value lol! Sold mine last week for $2600!
She's a real beaut! I might have to get one myself ;) If I was rich I'd already have one. I'd at least like to get my hands on that controller, I love retro, nostalgic stuff. Well done, lucky Finn.
Hi Finngamer,I'm from Brazil,just saying that you have fans around the World =)
Nice console,Sony did a great bundle this time.
Great unboxing! I wish I had one! :)
The nostalgia is real!
it's cool that you got one but bitter they only made 12,300 units I believe, it looks stunning.
It is kinda sad that Xbox one didn't quite get the same treatment. The console design of PS4 is so sleek, it makes Xbox one look decade old :(. I loved playing on these consoles.
Man this is such a cool console so jealous
Thats awesome man, i was able to pre-order one at the PS Experience. should ship at the end of the month :)
FumiyaSugawara Congrats! :D
Iv been a fan since they came out the demo I played with the gecko gave very me so many good memory's
Even now saying this my eyes water up I love the Playstation the music it's amazing
Looks cool ,just wish that the thumb sticks and buttons were gray.
You just made me really jealous!!! Love it! You are lucky! :)
I wouldn't mind buying the control, looks nice
Man, I really want this. Idc about it being limited edition, I want it because of the color and engravings on the ps4, the ds4, and the ps camera. I hope they make another version of this with at least the same color.
It's so beautiful, I wish I had one! I still haven't been able to buy one, although there aren't any games I want to play for now...
Really jealous :)
Thanks for showing us!
It's..... It's beautiful. *wipes tear*
Holy shit! Awesome! I really want one! I still have the original PlayStation too!
Damn wasn't this just announced today??and you got it...Damn, Baller status!!!
this is by far the coolest and prettiest ps4!
The Playstation 1 is probably my favorite Playstation console.
Nice that everything is gray
Hopefully I'm going to be purchasing one of these limited edition Ps4
The 20th Anniversary Edition PS4 WOULD be worth buying if the price for it wasn't so outrageous!
I..AM..SPEECHLESS.. THIS PS IS SO COOL!!
I also have a limited edition PS4 It is the BO3 Version. And I have the 20th anniversary edition theme. Its pretty cool.
I was hoping you'd put it next to a PS1. Or atleast the controllers.
Wow, you already got it!
I really hope Nintendo makes an NES themed Wii U next year for the 30th anniversary. And a disc that has ALL of the black box launch games. I would buy two of those. Lol
Very cool. Thank you for sharing!
I want one of these for xmas 8)
Finn, you sound like Spider from that movie Elysium haha just noticed it.
Hopefully they can make the controllers in this design for retail sale, Shame I can't afford another PS4 for now. :(
Look at it bro, it's fucking gorgeous. It would be pretty special to own one of these :)
Used to play the Playstation 1 when i was young
I watch all your videos man it makes me wanna become a game collector as well I have a small collection but I really enjoy your ASMR videos as well watched all of them and the ones from Japan where awesome stuff and I wanna try those chips that you ate in the ASMR video how much did you pay for that limited ps4?

tyrone rutherford Thanks for watching. :) I got this for free as a promotion from Sony. I've visited USA once, I'll surely come there again. The trip would most likely be to the east coast.
Nice PS4 Unboxing :)
That is sweet that will be worth quite a fortune in 10 or so years
Heya fellow N64Forever'er! So happy to see you got one of these systems, I'm going to be 100% alert on Saturday to snag mine up as well! Wish me luck ^_^
YogurtStorm Good luck! :)
finngamer Just to follow-up... I managed to pre-order one too! :D I'm real happy!
YogurtStorm Must have been my luck-wishing. :D
Never underestimate the power of Finngamer's wishes! :-)
What an honour
Wow, this is really awesome! I do with they would bring this out for the public to buy :( Very very cool!!
My friend said the outside is a white cover while the inside box is black, together they make the gray ps4 lol
It is nice to see pieces that made it to Europe. Because hands on heart, the way SONY distributed these was pretty bad at best.
I was CRACKIN THE FUCK UP!!! When he said " you'll see what that means in a minute"!!!! HaHaHa!!! I'm a terrible person!
IGN said the console makes new boot up sounds. Is this true or were they mistaken with the new PS4 theme that plays the original boot up?
Wow I was going to say, how did you get this already?? So jealous!
The controller looks better than a black one.
What do you think, will the price go up in the future? or stay same.
I'm not sure if I should try my luck with vk.fi 's pre-order raffle.
It'll go up for sure.
It looks really nice the grey looks great but I wouldn't be paying thousands like some are listed on ebay for something which is really just a different colour. But great if you got one for free though that's a nice bonus :)
If only the regular PS4 was packaged similarly to this.
I would kill for this console!
+ThePSXcollector haha nice finding you here lol did you kill someone for it just asking lol
I did think about it haha :P
Lol
Very very nice !!
Can't believe it's been 20 years!
I've only been alive 15 years to enjoy PlayStation. I already have a PS4 unfortunately, and with their being a limited amount I'll probably be spending a couple thousand US dollars on one of these.
Bro I'm 17 and I need this, I would sell my car for this.
Heroic Husky kids, i'm 26 and i got one by selling hard candies
Wason Martinez I'm considering buying it if I get a chance, I got some money put away for 'emergencies'.
I already have a PS4 but this right here does look like a must need.
You need more than couple of hundreds the get one of these babies. Most likely none will be sold at retail.
Hi finngamer ,I from Ukraine,Kiev and I watch your video every day you good gamer Maksim Marar
Максим Марар Greetings to Ukraine, hang in there. :)
Hell yes
dont understand why sony couldnt advertise that classic symbol more often its been a huge a part of gaming history
the value of that thing depreciated by 90 percent the moment he broke the outer shrink wrap. More money than sense.
Thought this is out next year?
I can't see why this console is so special, the grey color is kind of dull. The orginal Playstation was not much to look at in the first place. The white PS4 however is a beauty and not hard to find in stores.
Wow, that's a thing of beauty. Is it backwards compatible? ;-)
I was shaking my head throughout the whole video due to pure jealously. They shouldn't have made it limited edition. :(
I am really upset that they made this so limited. It is easily my favorite skin but just not worth it if you aren't a collector.
It looks like the ps PAL and ps one colour... I remember when I first got mine ps one for Christmas.... I wish I had one this limited edition *sob*
How the hell did you already get this?
I've been looking online for where to buy it and people already have it?!
I miss those times where gamers didn't care about graphics and played the games enjoying them.. Final fantasy 7, Parasite Eve, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Chrono Cross.. Man evolution is shit :c
The idealogy now is that the more realistic, the more hardcore.
Very nice!

I like the gray console more but i prefer the white PS4 controller over the gray one.
the white one looks better but it tends to turn yellowish over time
This is special :)
That's a great gift from Sony - don't they know that you a bigger fan of Nintendo and Microsoft, preferring x360 over PS3!
Nick Berry I play all games on all consoles.
finngamer
That's true, but it isn't a secret you prefer nintendo and ms, nothing wrong with that, we all have our favorites. Either way I think Nick was making a joke anyways lol.
