Retro gaming references on reality tv?

Clearly just an act for attention for both Pawn Stars and Pat the NES Punk. I didnt for one second think that Pat would actually be willing to sell his NWC carts. Pat would have to be seriously hurting for cash to part with those, anyone who has the slightest idea who he is would know that. Plus something tells me he wouldnt need to take it to the Pawn Stars to sell it anyway.

Honestly, the funniest part was them calling someone in to authenticate the carts. Seriously? Who better could you get to authenticate the carts then Pat himself? That would be like the equivalent of having some famous artists come into to sell one of their rare paitings, just to have a random guy who owns some art store down the street to come in and tell you what its worth. Id be insulted.

Yes. I'm sure if Pat really and honestly wanted to sell either of his NWC 1990 carts, the best place would be NintendoAge. Guys there seem to be willing to shell out almost anything for ludicrous items.

I wonder if they were even real? In the AVGN review they made some very convincing fakes.
BadChad:
Im sure they were real. Obviously the ones they abused in the AVGN episode were fakes made from any grey cart and a zelda cart, but I always found the dip switches on the fakes simply look like a printed picture of the switches glued to the carts which gives it away, as were the carts on Pawn Stars had real dip switches. And seeing as how there was no real intent to sell them in the first place, I dont see why he wouldnt bring them real ones. You know Pat likes to flaunt those bad boys! ;)
