I'm looking for an old NES system to buy... Working condition, two controllers, all connector cables, etc. Preferably with Mario/duck hunt. Don't care if it has box/manuals... Just needs to work.

My fiance' likes the old Super Mario Brothers a lot but hates trying to play it on the emulator on the computer... So I need to get her the real deal... Silly girl.

Yeah there are a lot on eBay... just figured I'd ask here since I trust people that I *sorta* know more than some guy on eBay. Never bought anything from eBay before so I'm a little nervous about the stuff will actually work and so forth.

I actually have one that's around somewhere, don't know if it completely works or not. If anything messed up it might just be the cable from tv to console. I can take a look and try to find it at my folks place if you're interested...

Hey, thanks for the tip Charm. I saw that bundle pack on there. $60 for the system and Zelda and Tetris. Then I can get her Mario for $.99 more! Does anyone remember if Super Mario is 2 player? I haven't played that game in so long I can't even remember anymore.

Fig, thanks, but I'll probably just order from FuncoLand. Might be more expensive, but they are guaranteed to work/refurbished, etc.

Super Mario I is sort of two player. One person plays until they die, and then the next starts until a death and then it is the others turn again.

In Duck Hunt there was a way to control the ducks so two people could play.


Get final fantasy 1 while you are picking up nes games.

there's 3 lives when u start.. so when u "die" luigi will be next, vice-versa ... btw, how some she plays old games?? there's only 8 levels bout 4 sub-levels each... i can complete it in a few hours...

She likes old games because they are simple and easy to play. Unlike most games today that require you to memorize 45 buttons on the keyboard that do different things. I like those kinds of games, but she doesn't. She just plays when she doesn't have anything else to do, so simple game like Mario is good for her. I think I may get a SNES instead actually, because she likes Super Mario World also. And I would rather have an SNES so I can get some of the great RPG games like Chrono Cross, the Final Fantasy games, Secret of Mana, etc. I love that system...

I've also been looking around eBay all afternoon (I'm going to get fired if I don't force myself to stop reading web sites all day...), and I found some old TurboGrafx 16 systems. Awesome! I need to buy one of those eventually as well. I'm thinking I should just start a huge video game collection. I don't think my fiance' would be very supportive though. Some of the imported PC Engine (Japanese version of TurboGrafx 16) games are going for $150+ for one game! Video games! Weeee! Who needs a Gamecube anymore? (me, actually) aaaaaahhhhhhhhh.... I love video games.

Mine only require me to memorize 35 keyboard buttons. Geez, what kind of wack games do you get? 45 buttons. :rolleyes:
