Couldn't pass up my first chance at being around at launch for a console. So far enjoying it a lot. The only annoying thing is game install time. Spent more time watching tv on the dashboard but at least after today most of the 6 games will be installed.

^^^ that last sentence just reaffirms my aversion to this generation of consoles. "Most installed" after a day?! Ugh. May as well just buy a PC at this point if I want to play modern games.  Hard to believe that it's become EASIER to buy/install/play PC games than console games.

Nah I agree with you. I've just wanted to be around on launch day for at least one console and figured what the hell. My internet is slow which is one of the bigger problems. The updates are all quite large.

Both PS4 and Xbox One require the games to install. However, you can play the games while they are installing. While Killer Instinct 3 was still downloading, it let me play it. In most cases, I didn't even notice the games where installing.

Pick up a Nes Deluxe Set complete in Box the gun and maybe some R.O.B. parts might be missing  ( i really dont know what should be included with the Set) but for $85 i think i got a good deal, and i always wanted a boxed nes.. ;D and i now have a ROB too

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-NES-Deluxe-Gray-Console-NTSC-/261336972966?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&nma=true&si=KhS3zcXb6tvmP7vYGdNyUnbw%252Bxc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

It seems to be missing the 2 game carts (Duck Hunt/Super Mario Bros and Gyromite) and the Zapper.
As for the R.O.B parts only thing that might be missing is the other claw (I can see one in the second to last picture, and there might be the other in the last picture), All other parts seem to be there (battery bay doors are not pictured).

Nice find still.

Thanks
I was not  looking for a deluxe system but seen how much complete sets like this go for i figure $85 is not bad , the carts i have them already and the gun, lets just hope the other claw is there. It a had quite a few watchers and it had just been listed so i wait no longer than 2 minutes to buy it. I think i got lucky finding this deal.

Like I said the biggest problem was the large updates, my internet isn't the quickest, stuck with Verizon 3mbps DSL so I can only go so fast.

I'm really not trying to be a dick man. I know there is a few people here that do want the XBOX One/PS4... but there is a lot of people that doesn't care for them.

I'm happy that you got something you wanted, but truthfully, in my honest opinion, I think they are both an over rated pile of crap.

I want a system to play "Good games"... not watch tv and and play sports games... Hell, I even hate the current 360's interface, it's like "Let's play a game!" and then, "HERE IS A BUNCH OF ADDS THAT NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT!!"

Where are the good games? Really? I have not seen any good titles for day one release nor upcoming titles for later on either new system... The last good games I actually played was Dragon's Dogma and Mass Effect 3 and the quest menus blew total ass on Mass Effect 3...

I cannot justify spending $600 on a console and a couple of games that does nothing better than what I already got. Especially when they claim, "It's just like the systems you got now! derp"

This becomes a catch 22 because I'm sorry if I hurt your or anyone else's feelings, but I'm not sorry how I feel, and I know someone is going to be butthurt. So then I won't be sorry for them.

*End Rant.

You arent hurting anyones feelings by expressing that the adds are BS. I will note that the big window in the UI for Xbox One is the last thing you did on the console.... which means mine is usually a game. I cant stress enough how perfect that is, because the tiny here is your disc window is beyond lame.

That being said:

Day One Xbox One
Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag (xbox one)
Forza 5 (xbox one)
Killer Instinct (xbox one: sadly its dlc only.... but Ultra Edition)
Legend of Zelda: Link Between Worlds (3DS... not system)
Super Mario 3D World

To be fair the system updates and any firmware update will auto install over night while the system is off/sleep mode.  So most installs and updated you will never see or notice.  And also the games will let you start playing after a few minutes while it continues to install.  Well at least the Xbone will,  but i'm sure the PS4 is the same way.

But still the point is, you shouldn't have to install your games. That's why I hardly ever play my PS3. It's only use to my anymore is it being a fancy Bly Ray player.
What are you looking at? You think baby's don't like video games? THEN YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BABIES!!

I hear that, 50% of the time I go to play a PS3 game for the first time in a couple months I usually end up switching the input when the download starts and lose my desire to play

I got my 3DS XL, and I was playing in minutes of it being out of the box!
Shame thatch rare nowadays, I remember my Wii U having some problems with connecting to my router for updates. but I think it was useable without them.
