Hook me up! If you can find them for that price, then I'll take two! :roll:

You can Ebay it or game exchange easiest i have an old SNES at my house but im not modding that for 2 reasons, 1 its fat and harder to do, 2 my brother would yell at me because we have to share it. But yeah i just called up my game exchange and with the power cable and RF/AV cable also comes with 1 controller,its 22$.The N64 costs 35 with cords and controller. And i also plan to keep my first one i make just so i can show off and get some advertising showing i can make it and people will ask if i can make them one.

$35 for an N64? I bought three for £3 each ($6)! (I was lucky at a car boot sale). The controllers were an extra £1 each.

I see someone is avoiding confessing to their lies...


SNES consoles are cheap if you find them at the right places, but on eBay or Amazon it won't be less than about $50 (excluding lucky auctions and such). You can get many consoles for really cheap if they don't have power cords and A/V cables, which is what you want for making a portable anyway as long as you have a set to test it with initially.

Yes, on the UK e-bay, you seem to pay about £25 ($50) for a "working and tested" SNES with cables, however I bought one for £20 at a car boot sale which included the cables and six games (4 of which I wanted - good deal) two of my three I got on e-bay "untested as I didn't have the cables, etc" and they are fine, one cost me £11 and the other one about £8 (dirty one). All work fine (dirty one doesn't play all games, might be dirty contacts).
