    Where to buy a nintendo

    Just curious, cause ive been playing a lot of football games in the last month, and i really really really wanted to play super techmo bowl, with the 85 bears and their reverse plays. Just wondering if there is a site or a store that sells nintendo's. I know there are always emulators, but nothing beats the big screen. Thanks in advance.

    Most stores like Electronics Boutique or FuncoLand will have a copy of old Nintendo games if you actually go to their store. Just try one of those and it shouldn't be too hard to find. Good luck.

    You're not mistaken about Gamestop, but I think some individual stores still keep the name Funcoland.

    You can also check out Game Crazy(I think), which is located inside of Hollywood Video. They are the same thing as Gamestop, EBX, etc, selling new and used consoles and games.

    I'm sure you'll be able to find a cheap one on eBay.

    Babbage's, FuncoLand, Software Etc, and Gamestop are all the same store, just diffrent names. But their prices are rather high for older console systems.

    Check "For Sale" in your local paper. You might find one. Ofcourse I live in a small town.

    W3rd, I just went there last week and got me a copy of Contra and Super C for $5 each! Funcoland was selling the same games for $10 and $20 respectively.
