Thanks to the SNES vs Megadrive thread - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18433916

I have now purchased (another) SNES

The SNES itself (unboxed with the rustic yellow look)
2 Official control pads
Official PSU and RFcable plus the following games

PGA Tour Golf
Starwing
F-Zero
Striker
Nigel Mansells World Championship

I then got Mario Kart and an Official RGB/Scart lead. Total came to £45 including postage

Not too bad really, I know it doesn't include Mario all starts or World but these will no doubt be bought later...along with Street fighter 2 turbo and donkey kong :rolleyes:

Anyone joining me in buying an old SNES again, emulators simply don't cut it. Here's to Mario Kart original on 52" Plasma :D
 
Don't need to buy one again. Still have my boxed perfect condition one I bought way back when and only played for about 6 months :)

Might have to dig it out of the cupboard somewhen just for a giggle.
 
Still got mine, got the Indiana Jones collection last year for the Snes, really need to get around to playing it :D
 
Don't need to rebuy, still got my original SNES + controlers and about 50+ games in the wardrobe :D

Wardrobe? Id either get it out and use it or sell it. Looking at about £450 if its not boxed and cartridges only. God knows if its boxed and games are boxed too

Any duplicate carts of Street fighter 2 or Mario all stars by any chance?
 
I get it out every year and have a play with some of the classics.

Some boxed, most just carts now.
 
I still think Super International Cricket is the greatest cricket games ever made. Pick that up if you can. Many an afternoon with a beer playing test matches against mates on that.

Will have to pick it up sooner rather than later
 
Get some Super Tennis in!!!!!

I remember having a 3 hour marathon 5-set match against my mate back in the day - not found a tennis game to match it in terms of playability since!!! :D

Nothing has come close to Super Tennis on SNES, with the exception of maybe Virtua tennis 1
 
Super Tennis was great but I preferred Smash Tennis. I've still got my original launch day Snes (boxed etc) and an American Snes that I bought a few years later.

My UK Snes was a bargain as Woolworths where I got it had marked everything at the wrong price so I got it way cheaper than it should have been - let me get a couple of extra games anyway :)
 
Super Tennis
Mario Kart



and Super Ghouls and Ghost. My old man was playing it the other day. - Awesome
 
Installed a customer firmware + snes emulator on my PSP a few days ago, been playing Shadowrun ever since. Epic game.

:)
 
Tried Shadowrun before, pretty sure I kept getting gunned down as soon as I stepped out the door. Could never work it out.

One of the most infuriating games ever :D Making people destroy perfectly good pads way before Super Meat Boy and the like

Awesome music though.

One of my proudest moments, completing super ghouls and ghosts...

The end boss battle with Loki sat in his chair was a *****

He actually mentioned the music to me the other day. Epic.

Double jumping your way through the levels:D

Another Game Guys

Solstice - I remember taking £40 of my hard earned Birthday money when i was around 10 and handing it over to the people at Toys R Us in exchange for this. I eagerly took it home and was duly disappointed....Ah those were the days:p
 
Had the same with Equinox (aka Solstice II). Bought it expecting some epic RPG'ing, it was truly truly awful, took it back and traded it for Secret of Mana, which was one of the best RPG's EVER.
