Pretty good list of games... let's hope the faggots actually make enough to put on shelves this time.

[Larry]

I still have my OG system with NBA JAM and Madden 96. I'm good.

[The Mailman]

meh, ill stick to roms

[Miles]

That's a pretty solid list.

Better pre-order this yesterday.

Maybe I'll buy 20 and flip them.

[Eastern Grey]

The American version is so damn ugly. You guys really lucked out there. I'm on the fence, rumours are the Switch is going to have a Netflix style subscription for classic games, so buying this might be a waste of time. 500 bucks on ebay tho lol

[Larry]

This looks cool but I know I would play it for about a week and then it'd sit around unused.

[FRANTIK]

I don't know, I think this has much more replay value than the NES Classic. Zelda takes a long time to play and doesn't get boring. Megaman X games were awesome. Mario Kart and Mario World never get old. Apparently Star Fox 2 was previously unreleased.

Those examples alone would leave me much more to play than the NES. I played Mario 3, beat it in 20 minutes and then sold it on eBay.

[maleman]

wow that would be really cool if emulators didn't exist

[Nuffy]

I still have my OG system with NBA JAM and Madden 96. I'm good.

My ex girl friend bought me a SNES for Christmas a few years ago. She got me Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, and Super Mario World. Basically the best girlfriend ever minus all the abuse.

Wow. They put FF3 on there, but not 6? Or even 4 or 5? What the fuck.

Abuse?

[nastyvanda1]

Emulators are never 100% and it feels off to hardcore gamers.

The NES Classic didn't feel right either, there was lag. That shit is unforgivable.

These things are for noobs/casuals/collectors. Not real gamers.

I'm a collector.

[BigBoss]

meh, ill stick to roms

I don't get the fad of these remake consoles. Especially considering people are playing 80 dollars for something they could get for free with an internet connection and a quick Google search. I never even bought a Nintendo DS, I just waited for the emulator to come out like two years later. Then I did the same with the "3DS".

I get that it's supposed to be nostalgic to be able to hold an actual controller in your hand, but don't they make Nintendo controllers you can plug into your PC and play with your emulator now?

[Miles]

It's true... can't beat ROMs.

Nothing better than save-scumming with instant save-states, or grinding out in an RPG on 10x speed.

Still tho, especially as far as the NES Classic went, and Nintendo's habit of under-pressing all their shit and saying it's 'seasonal', there's some serious profit to be made flipping these fuckers.

Boom; double up.
That's coak.

More like Quadruple-up or more.

[Xadem]

I can barely even believe this is actually a thing with you nerds. I would NOT be surprised if you had played pokemon go and Mario Cart at that. Holy fucking shit.

[Eastside Gorilla]

i pretty much never play video games and that mini-snes would totally do it for me whenever i feel like playing video games, which is three times a year maybe, so i think i'm gonna buy one

[Miles]

I can barely even believe this is actually a thing with you nerds. I would NOT be surprised if you had played pokemon go and Mario Cart at that. Holy fucking shit.

It's Mario Kart, you fucking piece of garbage.

Git gud.

Also; sorry guize this is sold out.

[Xadem]

It's Mario Kart, you fucking piece of garbage.

Well done, I guess?

[FRANTIK]

Xadem, wtf did you do as a kid, collect stamps? Mario Kart as a kid is something pretty much every kid (without abusive parents) did.

[nastyvanda1]

He is in Belgium so they practiced surrendering and also how to die from nuclear attack.

[Eastern Grey]

Playing Nintendo games on Nintendo ecosystems is the best way, you dummies.

Got my preorder!

HE ATE LEAD BASED PAINT CHIPS.

I PLAYED MARIO KART AND I DIDNT EVEN OWN A SNES

[FRANTIK]

Here's a pic of me and my friends, playing Mario Kart when we were like 10 or 11. Definitely gotta be around 1996 or 97 here This is doap. Minus the ketchup stain on the photo covering my face and my Woodstock 94 shirt



- - - Updated - - -

We also had doap bowl cuts

[Larry]

Mario Kart as a kid is something pretty much every kid (without abusive parents) did.

Basically if you didn't have a SNES and Mario Kart then you had a friend who did, or at least pretended to be someones friend and used them for it.

[nastyvanda1]

Copped one today.

Also copped one for Poot.

[FRANTIK]

I still gotta get one. I didn't wait in line or preorder, because nintendo assured that this time there'd be a good amount available. And it's looking to be true.

[nastyvanda1]

Yea GameStop actually came through for once.

[Jake]

Worth the cost alone for Earthbound and Mario RPG

[MASTERWEEDO]

OR THE DEBUT OF STARFOX 2?

- - - Updated - - -

AND YOU CAN HACK THEM BITCHES ALREADY

[Chris Milenko]

Yup. Already hacked mine.

[FRANTIK]

Every store has been sold out since they came out around here. I basically gave up.

Then, today, we went to Walmart because i needed a new laptop. Just for shits and giggles, I went to the game section, and there were 5 of them. Bought two. The lady was like "you guys are persistent. I just put these out 5 minutes ago". I was like "I didn't even know you had them".

I told a friend from my old job that they had them. She went, and there was only one left.

I'm gonna hold on to this a few more weeks. Closer to Christmas, they might go for $200.

[Eastern Grey]

I got one and gave it to my step dad, we used to play mariokart all the time.

Frantik i'd offload sooner rather than later as they're making a lot more this time around. They're going to restock the NES too.

[Jake]

Haven't been able to find one yet.

[nastyvanda1]

I haven't opened mine yet. I'm lazy as fuck.

I got Poot one too. And one for my sister.

That's what I'm worried about. But last year, I sold two NES Classics, and then they announced that they were not making them anymore, and prices skyrocketed. granite, they'll be selling the NES again next year, as you said.

[Eastside Gorilla]

haven't seen any, will buy one if i, do

[Poot]

I haven't opened mine yet. I'm lazy as fuck.

I got Poot one too. And one for my sister.

Thanks again brother!

[nastyvanda1]

Thanks again brother!

Yessir.

[Urethra Franklin]

Bought my girlfriend a switch as a birthday present and Zelda and screen protector with Zelda decals and a Zelda carrying case

[Jake]

Thanks again brother!

I didn't realize Poot was your sister.

[BigBoss]

I can't imagine her kid's dad was to happy about that.

[Poot]

[FRANTIK]

It doesn't look like the SNES is too easy to find yet. Still much easier to get than the NES, but demand for it online isn't that great. I still have mine listed at $150, as I'm sure someone will buy it a few days before Christmas.

[Kushy Green]

Frantik, sell it to me for 79.99.... I wanna play super punch out. A friend of mine just got the last one from toys r us here..... and everyone else is sold out

[nastyvanda1]

What zipcode are you in?

[-Kue-]

I'm buying one of these for my son today, just bought the girls a Snes version 3D's XL each for Xmas so its not like he is missing out completely but also won't smash a two hundred and fifty dollar game boy on Christmas day.

[FRANTIK]

Frantik, sell it to me for 79.99.... I wanna play super punch out. A friend of mine just got the last one from toys r us here..... and everyone else is sold out

I sold mine last night on the Facebook Marketplace for $160.

Why no switches?

[-Kue-]

Why no switches?

I'm planning a nation wide holiday next year so theportables will be good for those long stretches of nothingness. Also they have a Xbox 1 and I could get all three devices for the same price as one Switch. They never used the Win cept' for Mario Kart and Sonic.

[-Kue-]

How are they selling for one sixty US when I just bought one new for one twenty AU?

Switches are portable though. I don't disrespect getting the DS though, it's game library probably shits all over the Switches at this point.

[FRANTIK]

I could've/should've sold it for more. They're$80 US in stores, but the resell value is more than double.

[Chris Milenko]

I should have bought all 7 my local Walmart had the other night.

[Urethra Franklin]

Yeah her kids dad probably is all butt hurt about it.
Don't care got laid.

FB is full of garbage, most of the TV's on there are broke and the two that weren't are close enough to store prices it's wiser to buy a new TV.

The only people paying more for an snes classic are peds

[-Kue-]

Just spent another hundred on Nintendo B.S, this must be how Eastern Grey feels.

Even though I don't look like a homosex i had to let the nerds at the counter know the Pokemon games weren't for me like I was buying something shameful like a buttplug or a new ICP album.

[BigBoss]

I sold mine last night on the Facebook Marketplace for $160.

I get some people are collectors but this just seems ridiculous to me. I'm pretty sure you could find an actual SNES somewhere for less.

So what would be more shameful, buying a new ICP album for yourself, or buying a new ICP album for your Juggalo teenage son who embarrasses you every time the neighbors or family comes over?

[-Kue-]

I'm not sure if you're saying my kids are embarrassing for liking Pokemon but if you are I'd agree if they were teenagers.

If you were being literal than I guess the purchase would-be equally embarrassing but less embarrassing than most contemporary popular music, especially rap.

Also, most teenagers blast music their parents dislike at some point. I'm sure I will have to deal with it but I'll try to betolerant and understanding if it isn't soft rock or pop punk type shit. I Will have had years of forcing them to listen to my music by then so I expect some pay back.

[Jake]

Finally getting one today.

[MASTERWEEDO]

[-Kue-]

What am I looking at there Weedo?

If this thing is fun I might get the Sega and Atari ones next.

We're all buying Red Fred when it drops. Don't be that one guy who doesn't, Kue.

Its still real to us, dammit.

[FRANTIK]

If this thing is fun I might get the Sega and Atari ones next.

The Sega one is horrible. The wireless remotes that come with it, barely work, even at 6 inches away. You can buy wired remotes online that fix the problem, but the next problem is the sound: super distorted and ruins the experience a lot.

[-Kue-]

Good to know, might still consider after considerable price drop. Can somebody confirm I can use any old adapter for the Snes mini.

[Jake]

Just an HDMI cable.

So far the only issue I have with the classic is the controller cord is pretty short.

[-Kue-]

SNES mini is pretty damn cool but some of the gamesgive me a headache I never got as a kid.
Mayweathers way the video displays on the television.

that's even gayer than lookin like a homosex

[FRANTIK]

Nintendo really fucked up with this, even after assuring people that they learned their lesson from the NES Classic's low stock. They also promised they'd have more than enough for everyone to buy before Christmas.

How can such a big company fuck up so much with stock?

[nastyvanda1]

Anyone willing to put in a little effort could have got one (or ten).

People just aren't happy unless there is overstock sitting around.

[Jake]

They've been stocked for like the last week on Amazon Prime Now in my area.

[-Kue-]

Says the guy flipping Nintendo's.

You understand if a cunt load of people weren't doing so it wouldn't be so bad right?

[-Kue-]

Also, still surprised how much I'm liking this thing.

Thought the nostalgia would of worn of by now but some of these games are fun as fuck.

[Jake]

Have you hacked it and added more games?

[FRANTIK]

Says the guy flipping Nintendo's.

You understand if a cunt load of people weren't doing so it wouldn't be so bad right?

I only managed to find two, on the same day. Kept one, sold the other. With the NES, I found 3, without any real effort.

I feel like the stock issue is exactly the same as NES

[-Kue-]

I'd need to know the sales figures to do some rough maths but I'd say if as little as five percent of people were buying even one to resell and one to keep it would be a significant problem for Nintendo to correct in any reasonable time frame. they have to do a lot of guess work here in regard to what percentage of scalpers will succeed at what markup. Near impossible although I'd love to see it so everybody who bought multiples lost money on it. In the long run it would make legit purchases more valuable because the market wouldn't end up saturated when Nintendo producers more units.

If I was going to do that shit I'd leave it boxed up for a decade of two, then sell it.
