Friend talked me into standing in line at Best Buy this morning to get one with him. I have no real interest in keeping it if I can make some money off of it?

Sell it now?
Wait a decade?

I started my bid for about 120 on eBay and it went all the way to 235. Good profit

Sell now, its Christmas, people will be willing to buy immediately. Put it for 1 or 2 day auction

I played mine a few times. Kept all the packaging and remembered how it all fit in the box

Sell it now before the idiots figure out recalbox or retropie.

Got someone that's going to 3D print me a small NES case for my rPi

This is what confuses me about this product. Emulators on Pis are easy to set up. Yes the $60 makes because you are paying just $10 bucks more after buying all hardware for the PiEmulator but 3rd party prices are stupid.

I got there about 5:30. Best Buy in Covington had 36 total I think. There were only 32 people in line so I was actually able to get a second one

Have you heard of anyone using an original nes case? Got one in the attic and no more crt tv's. Would be pretty cool to use the original controllers if possible.

I don't guess. She may not have realized I already had one. Everyone in line already got one so I just said frick it and she gave me another one

I'll give you a whopping $60 for it. It's the only thing my son has asked for. Don't think too long. $60 bucks is a lot. ??

Its insane to me that these things are really selling. You can pay $200 to get 30 games or u could get an emulator and every nes game ever for free. People are suckers for nostalgic shite
