Ghetto is crap like a rasberry Pi to an LCD.
Better than mine. My rinky dink apartment isn't big enough for a TV, couch. A desk, chair, and bed barely fits. So, I'm stuck on classic controller with OpenEMU.My ghetto retro setup. Better than collecting games and never playing them, I guess.

Two quick questions I'm not sure where else to ask.
Is this a decent deal for a AV-modded Famicom and eight games?
Where's the most up-to-date place for resale values? I'm thinking of selling my N64 and putting it into the Famicom I've linked above.
Well, the games are good which is more than you can say normally on eBay bundles, but I would still get the AV Famicom, if only because you can use normal euro controllers on it. I dislike the dogbone not only because of the short wire but the placement of B and A buttons. my2c
They were thinking 'This is how we do it from now on, see Game Boy, SNES, GBA etc'.Yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking when placing the B and A buttons on that thing. I simply can not use it.
Conker is worth $80+? Goddamn, I might even have the box for that one somewhere.
Right, making games with dash - like freaking Mario - impossible to play properly. Had they at least had the angle go from up left to down right like how you control in Super Mario World, it wouldnt have been a problem. But what they went for is just atrocious imo.
Works fine for me.
Never play a Game Boy or Game Boy Pocket or Game Boy Color or Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Advance SP or Game Boy Micro or Game Gear or PC Engine GT or Neo Geo Pocket?

Basically while you hold an NES pad like this, with the tip of the thumb on B, and you bounce the 'ball' on A:
You hold a Game Boy like this, hovering over both buttons, and leaning left and right to hit each or both:
So go Game Boy style:
I agree that Game Boy Style works totally fine, and I've never had an issue dashing or anything like that...
That being said, I tend to hold my controllers "keyboard style" wherever that's a possibility, using my middle and index fingers to hit A&B. I have no idea where I picked up this habit. A lot of times I'll even shift my grip in the middle of gameplay.
I do that for Hyper Sports/Track and Field and Tekken.That being said, I tend to hold my controllers "keyboard style" wherever that's a possibility, using my middle and index fingers to hit A&B.

I've just been through searching and purchasing a FC and FDS on eBay and I would say this bundle is high in price. They ARE good games but they are also all games that have come west so they're not exactly special as FC games.
I'd also suggest looking at an AV model. But perhaps you really want the original FC experience? Either way you can get them cheaper.
Loose prices are without box/manual.
CIB are complete in box. New is obviously sealed.
If you're surprised by $80, you will be surprised at the price of other NES/SNES/N64 games. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wished they held onto their own personal collection, but you can't blame a child for wanting to upgrade to the next system!
I just spent $175 for Chrono Trigger and FF3 loose. CT is $110.
I've sold a few SNES games back in 2014...nothing really of value outside of Secret of Mana.
SOM is like $55 now, hasn't changed much.
I bought Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, FF2, FF3, Super Mario RPG, Super Metroid, and Street Fighter 2 for $400 just a couple days ago.
I've been developing some Oculus Rift (simple) VR games on the side, and playing NES games with only 2 buttons helps me get into the mindset of coding simpler games with limited input and how they can still be fun. I actually feel like I could code an Adventures of Lolo game in VR and it would be fun. Imagine looking to your side and being frozen by Medusa looking right at you.

I'm not terribly interested in the AV Famicom because it's so sterile and boring looking. The original Famicom hardware is Nintendo's iconic hardware from the 80s and the one I'd much rather have.
What price should I be paying for an AV-modded Famicom that's gotten a bit of a refurbishment? (With a few games?)
I do that for Hyper Sports/Track and Field and Tekken.
Same, I don't see a problem with either method. No big difference after a while. Y-B instead of B-A threw me off in Super Mario World after a few years of NES Mario (many accidental spin jumps), but only when it was new to me.
god, i hate that site - mind you, someone else'd do it if they didn't, but it's a ballpark at best, and doesn't factor in certain things.
if im ever at a retro shop and a cashier is looking it up, i tend to leave
Price charting has it's uses, but yeah it becomes real annoying when people try to use it in RL sales. The fact that it is from only ebay sales where the seller is loosing a cut and there is really good buyer protection are things that sellers never like to take into account.
Of course all the shops around me have their shit priced at a healthy increase from what recent ebay sales are anyway. MAGfest in a month is going to have me just walking around the buyers room being mad as fuck at all the prices between enjoying the arcade cabinets. So just like every year.
So protest price charting at every fest? lol I wonder if that would actually work.
Long shot, but why not. Any Michigan GAF NES fans ever stumble upon any NES games with the name SLOCOM (spelling might not be 100%) carved into the back of them? Namely a Mario/Duck Hunt, Zelda 2, or Dragon Warrior?
