villaajax Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Following on from the WWE thread, here are some pictures of my SNES collection My one remaining SNES is turning yellow with age.

coda Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I used to buy games from America and sell them to a local independent shop when I was bored of them. The owner nearly started crying when I told him how cheap I got them for. The price of PAL games was disgraceful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price sticker is still on the Prince of Persia box, £54.99 in 1992 which is the equivalent to £96.40 in today's money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Mystic Quest Legend! It was actually a (none numbered) Final Fantasy game, considered a 'starter' or intro to the series/genre. It worked for me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were reasons for high prices of certain games though, cartridges were expensive to manufacture because the cost of flash memory back in the 1990s was ridiculous. Just look at what Neo Geo carts were going for back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at what Neo Geo carts were going for back then. I remember Starwing costing me £50 in Woolworths. Games were much cheaper in the US/Japan and they were released months earlier. Europe was very low on Nintendo's list of priorities. Neo Geo prices were crazy, weren't they arcade quality at the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyjsg Posted March 6, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted March 6, 2014 Neo Geo is still super expensive if you try and get your hands on the games. I got (and since sold) one so I could play world heroes - wasn't as good a a I remembered. Marvel vs capcom on the other hand was amazing with the neo stick.

samjp26 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) I have a SNES that I bought off eBay sitting here because I can't use it with my TV. I need one of those crappy non-HD huge TVs ASAP so I can play SFII Turbo. Edited March 7, 2014 by samjp26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaajax Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 I have a SNES that I bought off eBay sitting here because I can't use it with my TV. I need one of those crappy non-HD huge TVs ASAP so I can play SFII Turbo. Are you sure? Mine is an HD Sony Bravia and it plays through the TV antenna port the same way as it does on an old TV. Can be awkward to tune in but I've had it working in the past (haven't actually tried since I set it up again) If not, there must be an adapter. I shall be acquiring a NES soon. I have 'borrowed' my sister's NES and Mega Drive - But the SNES rules supreme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 SNES was awesome. Secret of Mana is still one of my favourite games. Super Metroid, Link to the Past (another fave), Starwing and Mario World all amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
