rare nes?

im wondering if a nes i own is rare at all because i havent seen nobody else who owns one although i doubt its rare...

its got two buttons one red and one gray with a cartridge slot where the game must stand up....

on google i couldnt find a picture although on the site manuel suggested if u scroll to the bottom u can find a picture thats looks similar too it

it looks much like that picture at bottom except mine is nes not snes

That would be a top loader, yes it's more rare than the normal NES. and the image on the page manuel linked is an NES, those are just the updated "dogbone" controllers.

I'd like to find a top loader for my collection.

o i just know this, I think it works much better then the original nes. Ivr almost never had a problem with it but on my regular nes it would mess up a lot.

The toploader came out in the US?
I envy you again. No such things like NES toploaders in Germany.

that sucks for you lol
i just know i very much love it because it works much better
i never really did like the original it never worked to great for me

My old NES still works fine and I never had bigger problems with it.
I just like toploaders better.

I want a top loader, but they're RARE in Canada from what I've heard... also, I'm currently using the composite out on my NES since my TV doesn't have RF, the top loader only has RF. but it can be modded to output composite. maybe I'll find one someday...

That's definately the only drawback. I'm not a fan of the dogbone myself, but I do like the RCAs better than RF. I want a top-loader and another spare NES "toaster" so I can hack up the one I have. It seems NES-Luke has motivated me to try my hand at some hardware configurations!

lol

man i want to move to canada when i turn 18.

i love my top loader especially how ocmpactible it is.

i have 2 original nes's so maybe i should mess with one of them today since im sick i need to get them out of my storage today anywayz

I have a friend with THREE top loaders. I think they look great, but the no RCA out thing bothers me. I like the picture quality I get out of my first-gen NES. With a new 72-pin and clean games, I have no problem with blue screens or anything. I also prefer the dogbone controller. Can't go back to the older "box" style controllers now. Too square and uncomfortable.

EDIT: And yes, your toploader is rare. NES put that out during the early SNES days to try and cash in one last time on the NES. You're lucky to find one for under $100 on ebay.

Yea i was lucky to find a toploader on eBay for $50

was ures already opened or was it still sealed?

mine was opened but it works great

wow opened for 50$ i bet if someone had a closed one considering that one original nes toaster was 250$ or close then that could probably go for a pretty good amount

not exactly.new toploaders usually go cheaper than new toasters. ive had many opportunities to buy new toploader from $120 - $160 but havent.... much less than the average new toaster

really... thats weird but cool
yeah porbably because the toaster is older so theres not as many of them still factory sealed but theres probably more toploaders that are sealed

I just read how a lot of you dislike the RF output of the Toploaders...well, I have some good news...some toploaders were released with A/V output. They are just extremely rare to come across from what I've heard. So keep an eye out for those

So is a top loader better than the original? or does it even matter?

I honestly think it doesn't matter. A top-loader would be a cool collectors item, but if you maintain your toaster, it'll work just as well.

I've never seen the top-loaders with composite Hook-ups that Speedy was talking about, but that'd make that pretty cool.

I am not sure if this was mentioned before but The worst part about the Top loader is that can't use Gamegenies because the GG is too wide.

adapters were produced, though I don't think in great numbers...

On ebay they got those clone top loader things for buy it now $35.95USD with $19.95USD shipping. I dont like 'em though 'cus it takes that old school feeling out of playing the games. Or atleast thats what I think.
