Golden Game Consoles

The Queen Receives Gold-Plated Wii from THQ

As the head of Britain’s most famous family, the Queen has been presented with a gold-plated Wii to mark the launch of game publisher THQ’s 'Big Family Games.'  

Her Royal Highness is reportedly a big fan of the console, and is often playing with her grandsons Prince William and Harry, so it could be the perfect gift. It will be interesting to see if there is any reaction from Buckingham Palace about their new Wii.
