Looking For An Nes

<div class="IPBDescription">the Famicom</div> One of my friends @ college wants to buy a classic Famicom (NES to all you non-geeks). Right now i'm searching eBay and Yahoo auctions and uBids but is there any other place that I should check?

    I have an original NES, Gray Light Gun and all XD. I'd be willing to sell it, but not for cheap.

    Are you looking for the Famicom (Japanese version) or the NES? Be sure to note that they are different, and there's region type stuffs in most of the games you get...

    If you're looking for an NES, just go around to local used game places. They usually sell them for about $50 if they can get them, but the problem is so many people want one nowadays its hard to find one in the shop for more than 5 minutes....

    Hmm, there's one or two places that sell NES's for something like £5 over here, whether or not a PAL one will be of any use, i'll check next time i'm up in town for you. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You could travel to my parents' house and convince them to give it to you/steal it.

    there are vintage video game shops in big cities like NYC. I know of one in the village. they sell NESes, ataris, etc... they also sell those little nintendo wrist games and pocket games. I was swooning with nostalgia when I saw those =P in, like, 2nd grade, I was the coolest kid cuz I had Donkey Kong on my watch...

    Have a pair of NES (US) decks in case one fails, light guns, Final Fantasy, and a Power Glove. Need to find the left-hand one so I can mod them for computer gaming. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
