Re: Random: Counting The Screws In NES Cartridges Is A Big Deal For Collectors

itslukec

I'm a big NES collector, but I decided not to worry too much about 3 and 5 screw variants. It's neat, but if I have a copy of a game, I have it.

I am in Canada and there are even Canadian only variants that have CAN in their product code. I would go insane, and go broke trying to get them all.

Good stuff though, love any info for retro collectors on Nintendo Life.

The ever increasing costs of rent, and living expenses in turn increases the price of their vintage stock. They are in the business to make a profit after all.

As these prices have gone up, I have found my vintage game purchasing has moved online. It's no fault of the shops, they need to pay the rent, but I can't justify paying what they are asking. Even if it supports local game stores.

@impurekind I wouldn't read a movie review from someone who has only watched trailers, and random scenes online. They have yet to actually experience the film as the film crew intended.

You are entitled to your own opinion, but you should at least wait until you have played the game until you start throwing around scores.

Let the stability wash over you like waves in the ocean. Feel the stability strengthen your resolve. Soon we shall reach our most stable form, and Lord Xenu will rise from the ashes to smite our enemies and deliver us to the promised land.

@Kalmaro I think as a company you have to weigh the pros and cons of allowing people who alter the code of their phone to play your game. I understand the benefit of rooting your phone, but understand it from their side. Why take the risk on such a small monetary demographic?
