You've played the GBC version, Wyrdwad? I hear it has 32 levels as opposed to the original 8. Outside of that, what's different between the GBC version and the NES version? What should persuade me to get the NES version (wait for the VC version, I mean) instead?

Hmmm... I'll have to get the NES version on VC sometime when it's released, then -- as I don't have any intent of blowing my lungs out, powering the system on and off, or jiggling the cartridge. XD That's the only part of old-school gaming that I'm glad I'm done with.
Hmmm... it's so hard to decide, I didn't take into account what the S+H would be. $3.99 for first class?! Couldn't they, you know, just put a stamp on it and send it in a white envelope? XD

I can fix your NES in 10 min with the proper parts dudeski. No more blowing ever. Mine plays like she did back in the 80's. If you want to know more, PM a ninja, or perhaps Ill think of writing a cleaning faq one day.

Not to mention that if anyone makes any sudden movements (shaking the house, making the NES jump even a little bit) my games would crash. I'd rather not suffer that ill fate again. With the development of the Wii VC, (and emulators,) I really don't see the point. XD
// Speaking of VC, they now sell Commodore 64 games?! When the hell did that start? Anything good I should keep my eyes peeled for?

Ah, GBC! Forgot about that one. OK, so there are *four* versions of Spy vs. Spy that I know of, then. ;) C64, Amiga, NES, and GBC. NES version is still the best, though. -Tom Ahem! :) pwned. Well, not really. I doubt anyone really knew the extent of Spy vs Spy games in existence. ^^;;; Except for that d00de that collected them all. It's like editor in chief of Hardcore Gamer and his Castlevania shrine. DDDDDD: Soooooooo many games and versions. @_@

I'm going to have to call off my Spy vs. Spy hunt for now, but I'll be back. At the very least, I'll be watching the... really short show on YouTube. // ...and I saw every episode. XD It's too damn short, and I want a Black Spy!

The fact remains that I won't touch another NES. Its controllers are outdated, uncomfortable, sharp, and fragile -- I don't know if I have one left that still works properly. I know, I know, you'll play another genius card response, right? Something along the lines of buying a rounded controller or somesuch -- well it's the d-pad too! It's just as bad on the SNES, in my opinion. // I know, I know, right knowledge, right parts -- you know what? If I ever did make such modifications, by the time I'd be done, it wouldn't even be a real NES anymore!

........nope, no genius response. I still love jamming on mine, and I don't find the dpad or controller hard to use. My callouses must be dampening the soreness To each their own, just don't let that thing go to waste. Sell her off to a special buddy so he can paint a custom shell on it

I believe I have two. One's missing its jaw, but both are fully functional, unmodded machines. I also have two SNES consoles; one without the American tabs (no more region-blocking) and one completely untouched.
I wonder how much a gold Zelda cart (no box/manual) would sell for... and if I could get it both, how much it'd sell for then. XD

My mom and I decided that the original store would possibly be a shady place, so we need to look elsewhere
And no eBay. Where do we go?

Why not try Amazon? They're trusted worldwide!
