You remember the ones I'm talking about? Where you could plug in your Pokemon Snap cartridge and print out stickers of the pictures you took in the game?
I'm guessing Blockbuster just threw 'em all out.
Are there any still surviving in working condition anywhere?

Some were destroyed, some were probably sent back to Nintendo and destroyed, or some stores allowed people to buy them or just take them.
I'm sure there's some collector out there who found one and has it in working condition, even if they would have to use new sticker paper and get more ink eventually.
Weird, I was actually thinking about this just yesterday. A friend and I were talking about Afrika for the PS3, which is somewhat similar to Pokemon Snap in concept. I still have some of the stickers I printed out at a Blockbuster kiosk on my computer desk. :)

someone around here has one, I think. Anyway, someone was just asking the value of one in the What's it worth forum within the last few days.

Someone here does...but I can't remember who it is. I remember seeing pictures of it in one of the monthly "finds" threads. This was years ago.

Yea. I saw one go up on ebay also.
It was the internals so no tele or the large unit itself.
but it was all in functioning order. If I remember correctly it looked like the printing unit was just a simple picture printer that people use for their cameras.

Ha ha,Me too......
I don't know why..It just came to mind for some reason..
I could of got one at a Flea Market for $250.00 Years ago.....I just didn't have a way at that moment to get it home..i
I liked it and it was unusual....The seller said he got it from a frend who worked at blockbuster .. IMO he picked it out of the trash behind blockbuster..
He sold it by the next week as I went back to buy it..He said he sold it for the $250.00 but I got word that he dumped it for $100.00 the first time that I saw it..
He didn't give the buyer any of the smart cards though..My uncle wound up buying all the boxes of them off of him..
