Destructoid has spotted the ongoing eBay auction of a Limited Edition Zelda GameBoy Advance SP - signed by the Zelda master himself, Shigeru Miyamoto, at the grand opening of the Nintendo World Store in New York City.

Here's what the winner gets:

• New Gameboy Advance SP Zelda Limited Edition in gold signed by Shigeru Miyamoto
• New The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap cart
• Booklets and manuals
• Slightly crushed display box
• The new feeling of receiving something shipped from Canada
  

At current the item is listed at $500 with zero bids on a gaming device that Miyamoto actually touched, but if you're a Miyamoto/Zelda freak you'll get a joyful giggle from just glancing at the listing.

I love the way Miyamoto signs his name. /dreamy sigh
