Funny. I thought the Wii only had two i's.


My NES works from time to time, not that I try it out a lot anyway.

Anyways, I don't, but my grandma has a somewhat-working NES. Most games and the Game Genie refuse to work, though. sad.gif

Oldest console I have is a MegaDrive/Mega CD combo, which works perfectly (Although the 32X that came with it doesn't). Got a Master System convertor for it and a bunch of perfectly working Master System games, but nothing as old as a NES.

That is, unless you count the Dreamcast that can run NES games.

working NESes aren't that hard to come by, and broken ones usually have pretty obvious problems that are easy to fix

i have a top-loading one that just has some bent cartridge connectors, it'd be fixed by now if i wasn't too lazy to go down to the home depot and pick up a torx screw bit but alas

Hello people, I just want to say, OFF TOPIC!!

Save it for the PPP.



I don't have an NES myself, but my grandparents currently hold one. 'Tis fun to play SMB3 on there... that is, if

a. you can get it working and
b. you can get past World 1 without it freezing on you.
