    Why is Nintendo charging so much for the Nintendo Switch 2 console and games?

    Partially asking this out of curiousity. Partially asking this out of anger. This morning I go onto Amazon to look for a new cable for my laptop and I see pre-orders for Mario Kart World from Nintendo's official Amazon account. I live in Canada so the prices are always a little skewed (when Americans are paying $60, we pay $80, and when Americans pay $70, we pay $90) however, the pre-orders for Mario Kart World are priced at a whopping $110!!!!

    At first I thought it was a joke, this couldn't be correct, right? But no, on their official page their all in that price range, some games going up to $115 or $120!! Is there any reason they think this is acceptable? Because if these are truly the final prices, I won't be buying a Nintendo Switch 2 until I can get it second hand, and the games second hand.

    It's strange that I'm learning about this now since we in the U.S. will still pay $70 for the new Donkey Kong. I really don't get that yet.

    How would I sell? - Fallout Themed Xbox Series X

    My computer has bitten the dust and I have a limited edition Fallout Pipboy Xbox Series X. I’m not sure how I would go about selling it as I know it’s going to be worth a lot but at the same time, how do I do it safely for myself and the buyer?

    SNES demo carts from kiosks

    Good day: I was just wondering if anybody on here knows where in the world they may have a Super Nintendo game that is a demo cart? I’m looking for smw in particular, haven’t found that anywhere on eBay or in local stores of Canada. I know they’re very old, and were used in kiosks to show to the public.

    I did, but I don't think any of us including you would want to pay the price for it, as it's a collection of the demo cartridges as a whole: https://www.ebay.com/itm/155372658801

    17k USD, and no ability to individually order it is a huge let-down and deal breaker.

    thats too bad. A deal breaker to get such a rare old item. im guessing nobody would accept a trade of any game in exchange for any demo carts... ebay usa would probably br the only market that would carry any such items? anyway its better i heard it from you than the actual seller.

    A question about what qualifies as an Atari XEGS accessory

    So essentially, the back of the Atari XEGS Console  features a peripheral port, which is notable because of the fact that it is basically the same port for all of the Atari 8-bit computers going back to the 400/800. Because of this, couldn't it be stated that items using this peripheral port for these systems could technically make them accessories for the XEGS? Just wondering.

    That's a good question, as even the disk drives work with it from what I understand, which make it not only legacy, but fully supported since the XEGS is indeed related to the 8-bit computer line, specifically perhaps the Atari 65XE (which is a descendant of the 400/800).

    JabaJ

    Yeah, and don't forget that the joystick ports on the system are also the same as not only the rest of the Atari 8-Bit line, but also even the 2600, which opens up the question of whether or not the controllers for the other Atari computers could be classified as controllers for the XEGS.

    masterlink
    lvl. 13

    Agreed, because the part number for the joystick for the XEGS and 2600 both are actually CX40. They aren't just compatible, they are by part number, the same thing (with a different color plastic). I see no reason why they can't be at this point. Same lineage, same part numbers, same accessories.

    We are STILL getting emails from the email leak.

    *Sigh*  Well Don, while you have excluded Consolevariations.com from the Wayback Machine on Archive.org, the damage is done.  You promised to reach out to everyone affected, and as *I* found out, you had not reached out to everyone.

    I want a remedy to this issue ASAP.  Who is/was the web designer responsible for such an egregious leak, without saying how it happened as you know I had discovered precisely how this leak happened, and why it is as egregious as I state it was?  I think it's time I talk to an attorney moving forward.  If it was NOT you, it's in your best interest to be fully transparent.

    Honestly looks like a custom paint job, nothing official. Improper use of masking tape is clearly visible around the power button, and edges elsewhere due to paint leakage.

    Nintendo DS lite "Altium"

    Hello everyone, 

    I recently bought this DS, and I'am courious if anyone have seen this Version before, since I did not found any hints about it online.

    The blue logo is professionally printed using the pad printing process.

    Only found out, that Altium is an australian software company, design printed circuit boards, and Nintendo is using their software.

    Thanks 🙂✌️

    As you pointed out, Nintendo uses them for PCB design, in fact Nintendo uses Altium, Orcad, and Allegro for this. I wonder if this was a gift to Altium perhaps. While the serial is a little strange without a barcode, I have seen DS Lite's without a barcode and similar prefixes before.

    If I had to really guess, I'm going with a gift to Altium from Nintendo that simply over time, made it on the streets.

    Update:

    I contacted the seller and asked for information of the origin of the DS. I was tolded, that it was raffled by altium on a trade fair back in the days.

    Videos of people restoring consoles are pretty relaxing to watch

    I stumbled upon this the Odd Tinkering Youtube channel recently, and I have to say, it's pretty satisfying to watch old consoles being restored to their former glory. Anyone else enjoy videos like these?

    That one of the only accurate channel about restaurations, you should check Tysytube too. Others are mostly fake or the guy just throw everything and build a console with aliexpress parts sadly.

    Spectrum90 Yea the moment the ramen comes out to fix a hole, that's when I stop watching.

    These do appear to be legit repairs, which is great to see. Should be a list of fake repair channels (though I assume one is already online, not just from our hobby but from other hobby's as well).
