Street fighter 2 champion ed.
Mortal kombat
Super Mario World
Donkey Kong Country
Lethal Enforcers w/blue gun lol!

Sell it and get a few bucks for it. Other than nostalgic value, there isn't much to be said for old consoles. In Nintendo's case, you can play a lot of the classic favorites through the Wii Virtual Console. Or, if you have a modded Wii, just get an NES/SNES emulator, and you can have the whole library available for play.

The one game I'd never sell from any of the old cartridge consoles is my NES Zelda.
It's GOLLLLLLLLDDDDDDD

That's only for the NES, that problem never happened on the SNES :p
My NES, SNES, N64 are all in a closet at my parent's place. If I ever feel nostalgic, I just use an emulator on my HTPC. It's good enough, and it means I don't have to store all the equipment.

Are your save games still present? Mine were still there, but that was 10 years ago.
I have a friend who would probably buy some of your games off you. He collects SNES games.

i'd say that package is probably worth around $200 for everything
I went on a huge buying spree snapping up old consoles and games for NES, SNES, N64 so i kinda know what everything goes for
Mario RPG usually pushes about $45-$70
Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, and a few others push $85-$150
personally i'd probably just keep it for nostalgia
BTW, lethal enforcers was fucking awsome, me and my dad used to always play the arcade version then when we found out they had it for SNES my dad went out and bought the game and both the red and blue guns :D

Keep it. I was nostalgic and ebayed/craigslisted a lot of stuff last year. SNES cost me about 50 and games were 10~20 for the common ones. However I find it hard to find a good condition original controller. I even tried a copycat ebay controller which was even worse.

02-22-2012, 04:52 PM
Every time I come to Japan I am tempted to buy a bunch of games and systems.. An original SNES is like $30 and games are $5-10 each... But then I realize I dont have room for a lot of shit, and most of the really good games are on VC anyway...
I did buy a Dreamcast one trip.. played it once and forgot about it :okay:

Pretty much 50/50 across the board. Most of my Mario saves were gone, but I was surprised to see my Zelda files still in tact.
Reading this thread makes me want to whip all of those old consoles out. I'm specifically in the mood for some..

I use my SNES system still. It's great for playing classic games man. I'll never get tired of Super Mario All Stars, Donkey Kong, Mario Kart, and any game that uses the Bazooka!
I took my N64 a little while ago too but it didn't do any justice on these new TVs. Only game I play on N64 is GoldenEye but it's so hard to play it now that I'm used to Call of Duty controls lol.
Last month I decided to whip out an old tube TV we had lying around to play GoldenEye. G O L D E N P P 7 baby!

I would kill for a copy of mariokart.
I still listen to music from FinalFantasy and Secret of Mana, etc regularly.. here is a great website where you can get remixes of almost any song from any game. The donkyKong collection is really good too.

My son's turning 4 in a month, and he's crazy about Mario & Link. He plays Super Smash Brothers and Super Mario 64 at my in-laws place, and Mario Kart & LoZ: Ocarina of Time. He actually knows what he's doing in Smash Bros., he's OK at Mario Kart (no strategic use of items of course), and he goofs around on LoZ and Mario 64.
I also dug out my SNES, but I only found the cartridges for Final Fantasy 2 & 3, Street Fighter 2, and Killer Instinct. I'd let him play Super Mario World if I could find it. I also have a functional Game Doctor with a whackload of games on 3.5" disks, but it's too delicate for him to fiddle with at this age.

I have my NES, SNES, and N64 (along with my PS2) all hooked up to a 27 inch tube TV in a spare room.
There are plenty of people still into these systems. They dont get nearly the play my PS3 or 360 do, but somtimes you just NEED to play duck hunt.
There are some sites on line where you can look up peoples retro game setups.

Bumping old thread because I heart SNES.
My parents were cleaning out old junk and found the original SNES box with the plastics, instructions vga cables inside!! So I went out on the weekend and got a good deal on a SNES with 2 org controllers, RF switch, AC adapter, Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Super Mario All Stars for $60. SNES is yellowing and has some small chips on the back corners and Mario World has a small crack and label wear. Might try to find better condition ones.
I also have Rock n Roll Racing for SNES complete in the box. Ex gf bought it for me for $70 around 5 years ago.
My fiance has NES and N64 so I am thinking of getting a display case as well for all 3 and the games :D

I bought a few games from a local collector earlier this week (Fzero, Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, NHL 94). His SNES collection was sick. All the rare RPG's including, Breath of Fire I and II, Mario RPG, Zelda, Secret of Evermore, FFIII. Plus he had EVO and Earthbound.
Local seller has Secret of Mana for $80 in the box. Don't know if I can justify that much money for a SNES game lol Brings back a lot of memories for me though as I played through it 3 player with the multitap.
where can i buy old systems?? like n64 and snes?
i have a super famicon lying around
megaman x3
mairo kart
and some other japanese games

If you dont save it to play with your kids sell it to me. I still play my original NES my parents bought for me christmas of 86' and its the only vid game console my daughter plays. We love to play pac man donkey kong tetris and mario bros together. I got another kid on the way and cant wait for this one to be old enough to play these with me and my daughter.

eBay is the cheapest unless you hit up the flea market and find one that isn't sold by a game/system dealer

I just got myself a usb to snes controller adapter earlier this week and now, I'm playing through all the good games I missed as kid through an emulator.
Don't know if this is too nerdy for you guys, but I watch a show called GameCenter CX and they only play retro games around the nes and snes era. You guys should defnitely check it out: GameCenter CX - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9AE8BAA18F74E151&feature=plcp)

nah people think they are really rare or something but if you go to any store that sellls old school video games they will most have them. Maybe not chrono trigger but the rest are easy to find for $30-$40

I don't know about that..local stores jack up the price even compared to EBay, and I haven't seen secret of mana or chrono trigger go for under $50 each on eBay

Here's the one I bought:
Mayflash Controller Adapter for SNES to Windows PC USB | eBay (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/260924668887)
Works real well. Just plug it in and play!

I got it from my old SNES. It's currently hooked up to a small 14" tube TV in my room which sucks ass to look at- I rather play via my laptop anyways. I must say that this solution is a lot better!
There are also those usb SNES controllers made by 3rd party companies, but they look cheap and shitty, so using the original controller is like a dream.
