Who gives a shit? NES mini is worthless. 30 games, not all of which are even good, for 100 dollars? Fuck that.

You can get literally every nes, snes, 64, gamecube, etc, FOR FREE running on a fucking toaster.

I can not seriously believe people bought it. Same retards are going to buy the fucking snes mini too.

Not gonna lie. I pull a gun on scalpers all the time. They just deserve it. I got like 14 switches now.

It has everything that's on the NES classic aswell, so it's a better deal.

It still isnt even worth 20 bucks.

If nes mini and snes mini came with EVERY game that was good (or even just the entire library), it would be good. But it doesnt. And the ones it does come with arent all good either. So whats the point?

It is a waste of money in every sense. Even if you had money to throw around, it is a worthless purchase. You could build a pi machine that can run every nes, snes, virtual boy, gbc/gba, etc, game for less than the nes mini or snes mini.

They are trash and Nintendos business practices are fucking retarded.

You must be poor.
>>
>>378790343
Would you rather spend 100 dollars on a nes or snes mini for 30-60 ok games overall, or would you rather spend 80-160 dollars on a pi machine with an HD out that could run EVERY SINGLE GAME from nes/snes/etc?

They are worthless products only built for retards and scalpers (to sell to even bigger retards) to waste their money on. There is no reason to own one.

The employee guidelines state that buying something with the employee discount and then reselling it is a terminal offense. You should report the Facebook post to the store manager, out, failing that, report it to GameStop directly. They won't be impressed.

They aren't allowed to buy things with their discount then resell it, but nobody is stopping them from doing it anonymously.

Also, the NES Classic is considered a Console SKU in the computers at Gamestop, so their discounts do not apply to that. Those are fair game. t. former Gamestop SGA.

Nah, spending money on something you deem valuable is never bad. Trying to convince others they're spending their own disposable income wrong when you know the reason is they're probably just fucking pirating their games anyway is childish.

It's a quaint replication of a classic bit of gaming history with several popular games loaded in. It's not hard to see why people like the idea. Maybe you'd understand if all your own money wasn't going toward ramen and weeb cartoons.

Send them an email with the details, and really express how disappointed you are to see employees selling rare finds that you've been looking for forever.

He'll get fucked, and you'll get some pityshit paltry reward

For less than $150, you could buy an NES, a flashcard, and still have money left over.
At $60? Sure it might be worth getting the Classic. At $200? No fucking way.

What I don't understand is
A). Why is the demand for this shitty thing so high? They're god damned NES games which almost anything can run.
B). If they're flying off the shelves, why is nintendo not making and shipping out more? They're shooting themselves in the foot by not meeting the demand, which upsets customers and loses them money.

You can buy a 5 dollar Raspberry pi Zero and run all those games
You can even 3D print the same case for 10 bucks online.

The NES mini is for Drones and Normalfags.

$80 I can see, I guess if you include multiple controllers in the cost.
How the fuck would you make a Pi system cost $160?

Not exactly. There are rumors of them trying to push harder into the tabletop gaming business now that board games and D&D have made a comeback. Apparently the idea is to cannibalize the retail space reserved for PS3 and Xbox 360 titles and relegate them to the used game bin to do so. Much like how they ditched physical PC game space for Funko figures and other garbage

>>378795863
that was before NAND memory shortage. they had to give up nes classics to make switches

You're unbelievably fucking stupid if you don't think that people don't do this shit in other countries.

>fucking gamestop is trying to become a hobbyist store now, when fucking gamestop helped kill hobbyist stores years ago while they were cancerously spreading and having booming profits off being a secondhand console pawn shop

i think they vastly overestimate how many hipsters are buying D&D shit now just because Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day are shilling for it on their Washed-Up Child Celeb & 5/10 Nerdslut youtube show

Well then, that's what people call the "idiot tax" I guess if people are too stupid to google a quick guide for how to set one up. The NES mini is for the kinds of people who pay the $99 "installation fee" to have a Geek Squad employee come to their house and plug their new PS4 in for them.

Setting up a pi machine is something any idiot with access to the internet could do if they took 5 minutes to learn something instead assume it's too complicated and give up before they even try.

I have over 400 confirmed sales, on tweakers.net with about 1/4 of the items being sold from within my house.

Netherlands btw, but i guess mostly whites and nerds buy computer parts on tweakers.net

People who abuse the scarcity of limited time items that could have gone to fan instead of being marked up foran absurd price deserve to be stabbed and left for dead.

P.S I hate Nintendo so I could give zero shits about the NES Mini.

Yes, the expression is appropriate, though, the grammar is not.
