Are you longing for the days when Sega was a major player in the console world? Do you also happen to need a lighter? Well you’re in luck! Andriasang has reported on two completely awesome Zippo lighters — one with a Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) design and the other shaped like a Sega Saturn!!! The site’s Anoop Gantayat wrote:
The lighters are officially known as the “Sega Memorial Hardware Zippo Lighter No.1 Mega Drive Model” and “Sega Memorial Hardware Zippo Lighter No. 2 Sega Saturn Model.” This seems to suggest that more variations are on the way.
You’re going to have to pay a bit to smoke so stylishly. Banpresto is charging ¥10,500 for each lighter. That’s the price of a later day Genesis, and you won’t get Sonic as a pack-in.
Even though these lighters cost over $100 each, I’m so tempted to pick one up. What’s cooler than lighting a girl’s cigarette and showing her how much you loved the 16-bit era? (Don’t answer that.)
Hit the break for a pic of the Sega Saturn lighter and lemme know what you think (please)!

Zippos kick ass. These look fantastic
Doubly agreed.
all i can think of is "sega cd"
dont get me started on "32x"
Makes me want to take up smoking again.
@slicky
haha. i went cold turkey and was such a bastard. at least I'm saving money now.
I did too. I gained a ton of weight at the same time because I quit smoking and doing one other thing at the same time on the same day. It was rough for about a week and then I just didn't go around either of the 2 things or the people that did it so I could quit. Now I am not even tempted and its been 2 years.
i love zippos, but i dont know if i can afford $100 per lighter. that would be soooo sweet to have though!! i wanna find a way to get them!
A guy on campus once asked me for a light (for his cigarette) and I quickly got my iPhone out and ran an app of a virtual lighter and showed it to the guy.
The guy gave me a dirty look and left cursing under his breath.
Does that make me a dick?
