I've been looking for an original snes without the yellowing for nostalgic reasons. Oh the shit you get rid of. I've seen most go for around 100 bucks complete. I'm going to a massive flea market on Sunday and want to know what I should pay. Any suggestions?

not sure... I would check amazon & ebay to price it.

slightly on topic, the original NES robot goes for a premium these days ~ $500. we actually had one, but I have no idea what happened to it. someone probably tossed it along the way.

why do you actually need a SNES? you do realize you can just download an emulator and whatever games you want for your laptop for free, right/

It's not the same, but this would help:

maybe not that specific one...but one of the cheap controllers should work

I just use an Xbox 360 controller, I bought one a while back to use with all windows games, and I noticed it works with my emulators also.

And I have an SNES, and the emulator is probably less frustrating because you never get the problems with games not wanted to work until you clean them 10x.
