    Guys I’m looking for an original PAL version of an NES, I’d love it with a box and manual but if that’s not possible I’d take a fully working console on its own!
    Does anyone have any links or know where I could get one or go any of u have one yourselves! Any info appreciated.
    Thanks

    Arcade and retro or Nintendo forums here would be good places to ask, some pop up on adverts often but they can be very expensive

    You could check out The R.A.G.E. on Fade St, usually have a few of the old consoles on the shelves.

    What are these consoles worth now? Have one since back in the day.

    You can but a bare unit console from about €40, if you have box manuals etc you can look for multiples of that.

    Ok thanks. No it’s just the console and controllers. I thought they’d be worth more with the NES mini being out. Then again that probably makes them less desirable if someone can get the same experience with lots of games off the shelf. Will hang onto it another 30 years I think!

    Sell em to CEX for a tenner, watch them magically turn that into €150.

    Lesson: be CEX.
