How Many of You Actually Own a NES?

[isturbo1984]

I was wondering how many gamers out there actually own an original NES console somewhere in their house or apartment. And no, the NES Classic does not count. Most of us had one at some point in time. My story is, like a fool, I gave it away to a younger family member shortly after I received my SNES.

I have been collecting NES and SNES for 22 years. I have a few consoles lying around lol

I have 3, one for each region.

We got our cousin's old NES when I was a kid, but our cousins didn't take the greatest care of things, and unfortunately not even a Nintendo product survived intact. It quit working not long after we got it so we had to get rid of it.

Wow. A LOT more people who actually have one is a more than I expected.

I never owned one, my first console was a Sega Mega Drive, but I *kinda* played NES games as a kid on a friend's NASA, the chinese clone with a million games inside. Actually, I played with a NES for the first time in around 2002, never knew anybody close to me that had one, we were all Sega kids over here.

I've got one, still. AND in (mostly) working order, I might add!

Never had one when it came out. Bought one and some games when it was a couple generations old and cheap to buy. Didn't play it too much. Sold it for even less or gave it away. Now it's a collector's item. Summary: f ing dumb.

I have one and about a dozen games for it.

I have one that I picked up years ago. My original toaster oven NES that I had as a kid went missing somehow. I wish I knew where it was.

I cannot actually mention if mine works, I am gutting it out and pitting a pi 3B+

I voted "no" to be perfectly accurate, but I do have a Twin Famicom, so sort of?

[Irritablesquid]

I have one, i dont think its ever been opened so i dont actually know if its real or something else.
I might open the box to see whats inside but i dont want to, im going to keep it and use it as a family heirloom and hopefully pass it down for several generations. When someone does open it there might be a nes inside or something else.

I have a NES and a NES Classic Mini. Sadly, my TV doesn't have support composite signals so I can't play the physical games that I own.

That's probably a problem for a lot of 1st and 2nd generation console owners.

True, I would have loved to own an Analogue Nt Mini to get HDMI output for my NES cartridges.

Now that I am able to see this thread again... Would this help you?

Looks like just what the doctor ordered.
