The SNES Is a proper robust console too! They must have given that quite a kicking to damage it like that. How annoying.

I want a SNES. Unfortunately I have no money and no space.

Gaz, when we buy a new house I want a GAMES ROOM.

I don't care how many SNESs you wire together, you won't get them to play Crysis.

They're for the website. Well, actually the consoles are a bit of an extra as I mainly buy for the games they come with as often they'll justify the price alone.

Looks like this is what's up there.

SNES console boxed

Unboxed Games
Batman Forever
Castlevania IV
Cool Spot
Mickey Mania
Mortal Kombat 3
Royal Rumble
Star Wing
Street Fighter 2 Turbo
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario World
Toy Story
Ultimate Mortal Kombat
Yoshi's Island

Boxed Games
Cannon Fodder
Fifa Soccer
Mystic Quest Legend
Pebble Beach Golf Links
Super Mario All Stars
Winter Olympics

Ebay prices for that lot seems to be close to £500 which surprised me a little though obviously fees would eat up 10% of that, with Castlevania, Cannon Fodder and Mystic Quest Legend being over £100 for the three. I'd be happy to sell those off separately, and would be open to offers on the rest. It's not entirely out of the question that I couldn't head past the cottage at the weekend.

There's probably an N64 available too if anyone would like one of those.

Price of SNES games is a bit mad, not really sure why. I remember when the 360\PS3 were the newest consoles and you would see SNES games costing £40 or more in those game exchange shops.

It's not like you can't play the games on your TV with the original controller or on endless other devices

Great Console though and I still have a dabble the RPG's for this system.

I wondered if interest for the actual console and games would wane when the SNES Mini was announced and launched, but it seems the opposite has happened. Mind you, I'm also seeing similar with the Mega Drive and Master Sytem.

This morning while turning Mrs Zs iPhone alarm off I held the screen for a while longer than required, let out an almighty morning fart and Siri searched for "Caravan".

Business class lounge fun times.

Bought uncharted 4 last night on ps plus - fecking hell it's good. I was considering jacking off the Singapore trip and staying at home playing that instead.

Side note: the spin-off (Uncharted: The Lost Legacy) is at least as good as, if not actually better, than the main game.

uncharted 1 to 3 remastered and Battlefront were the first games I got for the PS4. The former came with the console. Wanted to play those before getting 4. I finished them ages ago and loved them, but somehow didn't get round to buying 4! Fallout etc got in the way.

I work in marketing as some of you may know, and I've just had this email trying to convince me to advertise in the Daily Mail...

Quote:
Hi again
OK, I understand that some people would walk on broken glass than advertise on the Daily Mail website, but both the Mail and the Telegraph reach high-spending audiences, and these rates are brilliant.
Do you fancy giving one of them a try?

It's weird she's drawing a line between the website and the paper itself; anyone who's against the Daily Mail's going to be equally against all it's instances surely?
