How far can your wallet stretch? Welcome to WatchMojo and today we’ll be counting down our picks for the top 10 most expensive gaming products on Amazon. For this list, we’re looking at genuine products that you can buy right now – provided you have the cash, of course.

#10: Sound Bar

One of the most effective ways to improve your home audio setup is to invest in a soundbar, with even the lower-end ones offering far better quality compared to your TV speakers and virtual surround sound. While you can pair a soundbar with other devices, like subwoofers, to really get that home cinema feel, a good soundbar on its own will definitely do the job. If you’re willing to splash the cash, one of the best ones on the market – and readily available in numerous, stylish colors through Amazon – is the Bang & Olufson Beosound Stage soundbar, a professional-grade piece of equipment.

#9: Wheel, Pedals & Stick

$400+

Why Video Games Are Too Expensive

It never feels quite right to use a controller to drive in a video game, whether you’re playing a competitive racer or you’re driving a tractor in “Farming Simulator.” To boost your driving experience, you might want to look at getting a racing wheel. There are plenty on the market, but if realism is what you’re going for, you should look for one that comes with pedals and a stick shift to really keep you immersed. Though some premium units go for much higher, you’ll generally be looking in a price range of between $100 and $400 for a wheel like this, and potentially more if you get the stick and pedals separately.

#8: Razer Phone

$499.99

This high-end cell phone has been designed from the ground-up to be optimized for gaming. The Razer Phone 2, the latest model, is pricey but comes in a little cheaper than other smartphones that aren’t designed with hardcore gaming sessions in mind. One of the phone’s best features is the 120Hz display refresh rate, not to mention a much more robust library of games than other mobile devices can play. It’s able to run games like “Injustice 2” and “Mortal Kombat X” at this high refresh rate, as well as cross-platform classics like “Plague, Inc.” and “Don’t Starve.” And, of course, it’s got plenty of RGB lights for good measure.

#7: “Super Mario Land” (1989)

Classic video games make great collectibles, even more so if you can get a mint condition one. That’s why a brand new, unopened copy of 1989’s “Super Mario Land” for the Game Boy will set you back at least a few hundred dollars. You might be able to get a cheaper copy from other retailers – barely – but if you’re searching Amazon for the real deal expect to cough up a lot. On the bright side, if you just really want to play the game and don’t care about meticulously preserving it, used copies are significantly cheaper; less than $10 most of the time. But it just won’t be the same as getting your hands on a rare, unopened edition.

#6: Datamancer Seafarer Keyboard

$1599.95

Maybe you want the satisfaction of using a typewriter without having to buy ink and paper, and if so, this might be the keyboard for you. The Seafarer Keyboard is a nautical-themed, typewriter-style keyboard; it looks the part and will definitely work. It’s one of many “retro” keyboards on the market, many of which will leave you much more out of pocket than buying even the flashiest, professional keyboards designed for competitive gamers. But the circular keys may take some getting used to, not to mention the fact that the shipping is $20 – who has that kind of money?

#5: Next Level Racing Motion Platform v3

Hidden Video Game Level

$2999.99

Also in:

The 10 Most Expensive PS5 Collector's Editions

If racing games are your jam, this is about as close as you can get to being in a car without actually being in a car. Once you attach this platform to your racing chair and monitors – which if you don’t have already will set you back another $1000 on top – it will be able to simulate motion better than anything on the market. The platform itself looks nice in its case and can be fine-tuned through the software to your heart’s content. Even if you do have an issue, ongoing support from Next Level Racing is consistent, with plenty of software updates to make sure you don’t regret your purchase – and it supports VR.

#4: Arcade Cabinets

The 10 WORST Things About Gaming in the 2020s

It’ll cost you a lot less to buy either small recreations of classic cabinets or third-party cabinets with plenty of games loaded onto them – but neither is as cool as having a full-size replica arcade cabinet of a game we all know and love. There are lots of these reproductions out there, with large artwork splashes on the sides to show off the games within; take a $3300 cabinet decorated with art from “Ms. Pac-Man” and “Galaga”, for instance. And if you want something even more expensive, consider fully-functioning replicas of iconic pinball machines as well – in case you get tired of looking at LED screens.

#3: ROG Mothership Gaming Laptop

Sleek and small, the ROG Mothership can replace not only your laptop but also your PC. Nicknamed by many outlets a “Surface for gamers”, the Mothership has a detachable keyboard and free-standing monitor easily able to measure up to some of the best displays on the market. Even before all the added extras, it’s a powerful computer, with an eight-core Intel i9 CPU, 64 GB of RAM, and a 144 Hertz refresh rate, all things that make gaming on this monster a dream come true. And to top it all off it looks great; you’re definitely not sacrificing style by going with a portable machine over a desktop.

#2: Projectors for Home Consoles

$2600+

Also in:

The Most Expensive Video Game That BOMBED

Buying a high-end display for your console will probably set you back even more than the console itself. But if even a 50-inch, 4K smart TV isn’t impressive enough for you, you may want to invest in a premium projector designed for use with Xboxes and PlayStations. A $2600 TangFeii projector includes not only a powerful in-built speaker system, but also supports 3D resolution and full 1080p. For an additional $2000, you could get a home theater projector from Sony capable of outputting 4K resolution to really take advantage of the much larger screen size at your disposal.

#1: Custom PCs

Up to $9000

Also in:

The very nature of PCs being so customizable means that they sell for a lot of different prices. You can get half-decent PCs on a budget capable of playing many new releases, or you can go all-out and try to future-proof your rig. If that’s the case, then Amazon has plenty of custom but pre-built computers for you to choose from, saving you the hassle of ordering lots of separate parts and trying to assemble it yourself. Of course though, if that’s the way you want to do things, Amazon has pretty much every component you can buy listed on there somewhere – just make sure you know what you’re doing when you start building your own machine.
