... you do find one you will pay dearly for it. Thankfully, the Super Nintendo is very durable so buying pre-owned consoles is a great option. The Super Nintendo isn't like the original Nintendo where you have to blow into all old systems and have just the right technique to get it working.

3. Don't Shop in Retail Stores: You will most likely be wasting your time. All major retailers and most video game stores no longer sell SNES consoles or games. They have moved on to the newer systems and don't have room for it anymore. The only stores where you might have a chance are independent video game shops in your area. Even most Gamestops and EBGames stopped carrying Super Nintendo games a long time ago.

4. Shop online: The best place to find a Super Nintendo console and games is in online stores or ebay. You can search google or shopping comparison websites and find quite a few available.

Next-Gen Console Focus: Nintendo wii - And then there were Three - I mean wii

...ii can take a standard CD - it will NOT playback DVD, unless Nintendo is going to change things at the last moment. This seems to be a failure as all of the other consoles can do DVD playback. This may be a marketing ploy for Nintendo as they are not making the wii a home entertainment center, but a home gaming center.
