I look forward to never actually seeing one in person. But atleast I'll sleep better knowing that douche bag GameStop employees are making a killing on eBay.


lol.

God I fucking hate gamestop, they offered $12 for my 3DS XL when I was trying to trade it in to upgrade for a new 3ds xl. Plus they wanted my cable as a part of the trade in, AFTER asking if I had a cable for the new one, because it doesn't come with one. Needless to say I told them to fuck off and I will never shop there again.


They offered me somewhere around $5 for my sega genesis, two working controllers, a fighter joy stick controller that runs for like $50 alone on amazon, and like 10-12 games. System was in great shape. I laughed heartily and stuck it in my attack for my kids one day

These also can play cartridges, right? I'm guessing yes, because why pay 80 bucks for a Mini SNES (granted it's actually made by Nintendo) for 20 games and 2 controllers. Plus it shows a cartridge slot.

At this point, I'm surprised Nintendo doesn't do a run of actual NES and SNES consoles and game cartridges. Sell them for about half original msrp, make them available for about a year, and they would make a fortune.

I managed to fine an NES at some Podunk walmart in central indiana. Gave it to my sis for xmas cause I have alternative means of playing these like a normal person.

Like I've said before, it's not about the games. These are little show pieces for adults who had the originals as kids. That's why talk of raspberry PIs and emulators fall on deaf ears.

But the fact that those exist and anyone with the internet can get them quickly and easily proves that the people actually buying the hardware and physical games on EBay and other places are desperately avoiding the former and will spend a lot of money.

Now if USB versions of said console's controller doesn't exist then I get it. Using a keyboard sucks.

To think I've lived to see the day Star Fox 2 is getting an official release and on an SNES retro console no less. Yeah I've seen the play through of it online before and yes imho it's gameplay has always looked atrocious with that walking mechanic everywhere but that's besides the point. And FF III (VI) too.
Good lord I must have this thing.

Why would you ever trade in a classic console?

That said, I really want this thing. I was only middling interested in the NES Classic Mini, but this? I don't know what EB will be doing for release. I should find out.

I guarantee you it doesn't use the entire voltage of the outlet. It likely has the same power supply connection in the back for both, and they almost certainly use the same amount of DC Voltage + Current, so you basically throw out the UK power supply and buy an American 3rd party equivalent.

The console itself isn't going to run in AC so it doesn't matter, as long as the power adapter you plug into the console provides the correct amount of DC volts and current then it will work.

Ok my satire was not clear enough. The quote I posted was a slightly modified quote that nintendo said about the NINTENDO Classic to reflect that fact that the same exact thing is going to happen to the SNES Classic.

It was meant to point out that they "have paid close attention to consumer feedback, and greatly appreciate the incredible level of consumer interest and support for this product." but they aren't going to do jack shit to prevent the SAME EXACT thing from happening to the SNES Classic

They still haven't even bothered with with Switch VC besides rumors of Super Mario Bros 3 online later this year. :/


Yeah, their omissions are telling, but eh. I own them on SNES already, so I'm not exactly hard up for it. Besides, the DS version of Chrono Trigger is the superior version anyways.

80 dollars, and they're going to make about 5 of the goddamn things. I could make a Raspberry Pi in an SNES lookalike case with a SNES lookalike controller that plays whatever the hell I want for substantially less.
