Title: Finding a New SNES
Post by: Kasceis on March 23, 2004, 04:15:30 AM
I was wondering if any stores actually carry SNES anymore, I know I can find them used at garage/yard sales but most are in poor condition, so does Wal-Mart, K-Mart, or Toys-R-Us carry them? I can't order online because I have no credit card.

I have three words for you: GOOD LUCK, and, EBAY.
Ebay is probably your best bet, though maybe not your safest. Finding a vintage mint snes still in the box will be tough since they stopped production almost a decade and ago.

Dude the best advice I can give you is to go to Game Crazy X at certain Hollywood Video stores. Some have the store some do not. They're used but you get the used for free when you buy $50 in used games of the corresponding system. I got a PSX from that and it was an earlier version and it didn't work so I returned it and got another and it works fine. The only problem I had with it is that the controller didn't feel as good as a fresh new one. I just wished it was a used PSOne. Those things look cool and are fun to take around.

I can almost guarentee that you wont find one at a store. I bought a almost new one at a garage sale with 5 games for $30, so they are still out there in good condition, u simply have to look.

If you have a gamestop close to you (check the mall). They usually have em with everything you need.

Look around for a "Mom & Pop" shop. There's one less than five minutes from my house that has them, and another across town.

It's a long shot, but if it MUST be new, get in contact with a company that distributes games to other stores. I remember they at least had a lot of new SNES games still, around when the PS2 came out.

I see mint SNESes around here all the time. Old model and new model, just be just good luck. Just poke around classifieds or used game shops and you might get lucky.
Edit:by new I meant the style, not that it was never used.
