Anime fans will be delighted to see that Luffy is getting his own special treatment with the amazing One Piece Gold PS3.
One Piece is one of the most popular manga/animated series in Japan that tells the story of Luffy, who aspires to be the Pirate King. With his overwhelming popularity in Japan and overseas, it's no surprise to see the One Piece Gold PS3 come out. The entire console and the controllers get the midas touch in this specially designed edition. There's the image of Luffy etched in a white silhouette as well as a coastline map on the right side. I should mention that this is the slim PS3 model, therefore PS2 games will not work on this console.
This special PS3 is available in Japan only.
