Posted by exodus on November 15, 2017 at 14:10:35 EST in reply to If I knew that I'd probably be a lot richer. : o Ooh I do have a relevant story though: a friend of mine got caught up in a rush of his co-workers who found out a local store had a bunch of NES Classics when those were the thing, so they all jumped in a car, charged over there, and bought at least one each. Later my friend wondered why the hell he bought it, he hadn't been planning to get one at all. He never opened it; sold it months later to a friend. He works at a different place now so hopefully he won't get rolled into buying a SNES one. Oh and bonus story: my brother thought he would go one better, and got me a 620-in-one NES Classic rip-off off of Amazon for my birthday--not that I had ever expressed any interest in the NES Classic or anything. The "MINI GAME Anniversary Edition Entertainment System" has horrible video out (composite, of course), but I will admit the D-pad turned out to be less tortuous than it looked at first glance. The games are mostly hacks or bootlegs, like the cute "Fruit Pig" where your pig character catches and eats falling fruit. My brother was surprised and a little downcast when I told him the thing was a bootleg. : P (n/t) from Paleface.

ha ha, your brother did the classic 90s mom thing. "But mooooom, I wanted a SEGA, not a NINTENDO"
