WHERE CAN I BUY NINTENDO RETRO GAMES

Post by Rayman3DS »

Yeah I'm looking for a good place to buy retro games. Looking for Nintendo 64 or Snes games mainly, but PS1 or anything basically would do
Thanks;)

Yo, I remember you from YouTube. How are you?
Anyways, you can buy games on http://www.ebay.com/ (For US and Japanese versions)
Or if you want European versions, go here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/

What's up, I haven't been here for years, and man I miss this. I'm aware of Ebay, and bought a lot of N64 games from there, although I think the SNES games are pricy on Ebay.

Also if anyone was wondering, I'm looking for PAL versions

ALSO IF ANYONE WOULD WANT TO SELL ME SNES GAMES THAT WOULD BE COOL

AND IF ANYONE COULD TELL ME WHERE I COULD BUY CUSTOM CASES I WOULD ALSO BE VERY HAPPY

Erm... was there really need to create a whole new topic for this?

If you want cheap Nintendo games search out for flea markets, people throw that type of stuff away for dirt cheap.

I am not sure if Denmark has flea market. If it did, I am sure he would not need to make this topic :\

You may want to find a e store specializes in gaming, that's how I plan on buying Conkers Bad Fur Day, anyway. Also do you prefer to buy them new or used?

Yeah, this really didn't need its own topic, but I'm not going to do anything about it.

eBay is the obvious answer I'd think, 'nuff said.

haha yea, and why the fuck is it, that PAL games are so much more expensive than NTSC games, for both the N64 and the SNES? So annoying

I dunno, Nintendo never really liked PAL format so they made less copies of them. Japanese and US N64, SNES and Famicom games are way cheaper which is why I suggest you buy adapters to play other regions on yout NES, SNES and N64. Not to mention it has better framerate too.

So what? Just buy Adapter so you can always choose what region you want to play and buy the cheapest versions of games while playing current ones you own too.

What I usually do is either go to Ebay or search around thrift shops and game stores locally. Sometimes those may have sales or even coupons they hand out.

One store I've been two had a buy two get one free sale for multiple purchases which lasted for a week, and one other type of store had a coupon to buy one get one free for one purchase for a couple of days. Just an example of what you may run into when trying to find what you want and even see about possible good deals.

Well, I like to check in the shops once a week, because thrift shops can put out something new at any given time. Some days you may find absolutely nothing, while some other days you may find a couple of things or a lot of things.
