Good ol' times... :'-)

Though I would appraciate a SNES collection even more ;-)

(Note to myself: Get a SNES with Yoshi's Island, Mario Kart and Terranigma from eBay!)

The NES is the only retro Nintendo console I don't own. Mainly because I never cared too much about it. I would love a complete SNES collection though (since the SNES is hands down the best system ever made).

Apo, you do realize you named some of the more expensive games there, right? Especially Terranigma since it was never released in the US. Then again, German language versions usually are cheaper.

Ok, I'll stop there, else I'll keep on talking about retro games for hours :-P

One last thing though: 220.000 dollars is sick. It can't be worth that much...most of his games are cart only...

Nah, get a SNES emulator and whatever games you want. All for nothing.

If you're a real retro gamer, you'll want the vintage systems. Trust me, emulators just don't have that feeling the actual consoles do ;-)

You're right... they feel so much better.

Save anywhere, take screenshots, whip out value cheats, play fan bootlegs/hacks, no buying a second or third console to play foreign games, no tripping on cords, no clogging up the eletrical outlet with 900 systems, using 1-button keyboard macros instead of pulling off overly-complex fighting game moves on a controller...

Fun, fun, fun!

And best of all... especially referencing the NES console... no damn overheating / blue screen of flashing death!

Dude!!! A SNES is a SNES and emulating it is blasphemic!!! >:-)

Really, you need this cool retro console feeling, otherwise the games aren't fun!!!

Oh, and add Zelda for SNES and the Gameboy (including this Super Gameboy module) to my list! ;-)

Well, if you're getting one, here's some of my favorites:

Chrono Trigger (USA only): Must-have, one of the best RPG's ever created. Classic. 40-50 Euro, cart only

Final Fantasy III (USA only): See Chrono Trigger. Best FF in my opinion (yes, better then VII). 30-40 Euro, cart only

Turtles IV: Turtles in Time: My favorite multiplayer game. A great beat em-all which is 10 times more fun when played with a friend. 10 Euro, cart only

Street Fighter 2: No introduction necessary, I believe. The pinnacle of 2D fighting games. 5-10 Euro, cart only

Super Mario All-Stars/Mario World: Mario All-Stars contains the 4 NES mario games and will keep you busy for quite a while. Mario World is a classic too. Can be gotten on one cartridge or on two. 10-15 a piece or 20-25 for 1 cartridge (cart only)

Super Metroid: 2D gaming at it's best. Short but high replay value, an absolute must-have. 15-20 Euro, cart only

You'll want to look at Ebay US for the USA only games as they tend to be cheaper there (but shipping might be high and you need a US SNES or a converter to play them).

We already have a NES, but we hardly use it, like our sega saturn and our other N64 (our Game collector/player cousin rented out our basment with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and a kitchen plus living room-It's bigger then his OLD apartment! He got a PS3 and an xbox 360, while we have a wii and a 360 for this gen.)

And on the topic of SNES, before my old comp was raped to death by winfixer, i had to use a emulator to play super bonk (AWESOME music!) because i didnt have it for real SNES.

Why does everybody use Emulators? I only use them to try games before buying them, and I only do that for the SNES anyway. I have 140+ original games, why would I need illegal games? Collecting is half the fun, you know. Which, in turn, is another reason not to buy all NES games at once. It's much more fun to finallyfind that game you've been looking for for ages.
