SavannahLion:
I would venture to say the Wii is playing a big part in the price increase for NES consoles.

Those NoaC consoles probably play a role in the prices of the original, but it's hard to judge whether the NoaC systems push the price up or down. The NoaC sucks ass and the consoles they're in are really only useful as spare parts. So people who buy them probably get disappointed, dump the NoaC then hit eBay for the original.

Fluctuating console game prices are easier to track. When Klonoa 2 hit the market, Klonoa 1 was already out of print. My Ex wanted Klonoa so badly that I ended up paying, IIRC, around $60 for a NIB copy. When The Lunar series hit the Playstation, the ---smurfing--- Sega CD versions skyrocketed, $60 for opened copies, $100 for the rare CD prints and $150 or better for NIB. At the same time, it was almost impossible to find a working SCD for a reasonable price. The Lunar rush pushed the console prices up. Now you can find SCD copies for less than $20 (though this NIB with potential signature might command the asking price). Makes me wish I kept better care of my SCD Lunar discs :(

Then again... maybe I'm talking out of ---my bottom--- and prices fluctuate whenever Pam Omidyar has a visit from Aunt Flo.

ChadTower:

Bump, the nicest shelled unit is gone, sold locally for more than I'm asking here.

ChadTower:

On ebay now

ChadTower:

Bump last day on ebay, still at $20 each with games.
