Double? There is one on ebay right now for $330.

I really didnt expect there to be big demand for this. Boy was I wrong.

I think ill get one when the storm calms down. I dont play video games much but when I pick up my kids xbox controller my brain melts and then I get my ass kicked at whatever game im attempting to play with them....

I need to go back to the simple world of Super Mario Bros. 3 and contra.......

WTF? Really? For a throw back console?

Might be a little misleading.... The target by me only had 2 of them. Doesn't seem like anywhere had very many.

I still use my original nes.

Why would I want to buy one? (I mean I will buy one, without a doubt) but what advantages does the new one have

HDMI and 30 games preloaded. It's basically An emulator.

I still have mine from when I was young.. Here are some games, but I know I have more somewhere.



Fired it up today for some Tetris

I've got 2 NESs ready to fire up. A $60 throwback system is very appealing though

I've given up looking. You can't find them anywhere.

Just gotta be lucky.

Toys r us in southgate is where I got mine.

Well this took way longer than it should have. So dumb that you still have to work your ass off to get one, but finally!

Congrats! Where did you end up finding one? I assume you paid the original $60 asking price? There are tons of them on CL but everyone wants $125+.

Yeah paid retail price, but it took a friends aunt who works at a game stop to tip us off as to when they had two coming in and for her to hold one for us. I've found that if you dont know someone who can hold one for you, good freaking luck getting one.

Nintendo has already discontinued production of these, so prices will only go up
