I can still get them locally brand new. Just bought one the other day to use for shooting pics of the displays stands that we sell for them, since my only personal controller is black (which means photoshopping the hell out of dust and such) and quite worn at this point.

How much do they run and might you be willing to pick one up for me?  I've looked everywhere and the only new ones are the generic brand controllers, which I never use.

I'm seeing these Chinese popup scams all over the place for NES classic and the Switch. Luckily it's easy to get your money back from places like eBay and Amazon.

I grabbed one that was a factory refurb (new shell, used guts), but they had brand new as well. I think it was 50 for new, 40 refurb. I don't get to the particular stores that have them all that often. But next time I'm out I will grab one. Usually color choices aren't really choices though.

Cool.  No rush on my part.  Just looking for a second one so I don't have to stop and charge during marathon play sessions.  New preferred.  Pink color if you can get it, but standard black is fine too.

Anyone looking for an SNES? This is a great deal for opening bid. Hooray for poorly listed items.

Gameboy micro purchase. This will replace my fairly worn blue unit with one that's minty like Wrigley's! 

I got it for a steal since the seller had zero feedback and was in Serbia.

But, he shipped it in an envelope and then taped the retail box closed. Ugh. The box ain't in perfect shape, but it would be nice to have it arrive not in worse condition that it was when it left his hands.

Oh well. Can't really complain. I can sell my so-so condition blue for more than I paid for this one ;D

For boxed things I always PM the seller to make sure they don't do cap like this, I have been burned too many times by GameBoy boxes crammed in bubble mailers and such.

The guy BARELY spoke English, so I didn't press my luck :-\


We must look for Gaia Gensouki, the Japanese version of Illusion of Gaia/Illusion of Time.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
