Bank Quest: The Adventure To Appreciable Assets
Saving money is always a tricky endeavor, regardless of whether it is bills or coins. It takes personal fortitude and perseverance to dedicate funds toward an unknown future expense, and that's just where Tomy's Bank Quest steps in. Acting essentially as a Tamagotchi embedded within a plastic coin fortress, this bank requires the investment of real world money to continue the quest. Need a new sword? That'll be $5.00, figuratively speaking.
With an advertised maximum capacity of 50,000¥ (approximately $500), this would be a great way to deposit occasional funds for, say, one of those fancy new iPhones, or a PlayStation 3.

That sounds cool, and it would be nice to have if you weren't paying a PS3's worth to save up for a PS3. Oivey, what were they thinking?!
