Seen one of these beauties? If you work in retail, you just may have. It's Capcom's custom Visa debit card, with your choice of popular video game characters on it. Sweet, right? Not so fast. The Consumerist has revealed the card's evil little secret - the outrageous fees associated with using and just owning the damn thing.
