Does anyone have one of those rare Pokemon Snap Station units that were only at Blockbuster back in the N64 days? I'd love to get one some day and was curious to those (if any) that have one how much it cost and how they managed to pick it up.

Depends on if it's just the shall or if it has the tv and the speial N64 inside. Ide easily shell out $100.00 for one of those if it still printed.

Last one on ebay sold for $700+. They're pretty impossible to find, although I know of at least one member that has one atm.

You rang?

Ya I have one. Complete. Including boxes of the cards and the printing cartridges and paper, not for resales carts and the keychain and key for the station. I'm an ex-blockbuster employee. At the time the stations were supposed to be sent back to Nintendo, or so they told our store. Never was. Most stores threw them out by the dumpsters where people stole the TV and N64 outta them and left the shell. Ours sat in the back of the store until the manager goes, you can have that stupid thing, just get it outta the way now. So my dad came and picked it up for me. Ta-da.

This picture is really old. I'd get new ones, but we moved it out in the garage, cause it took up too much space.

There are more pictures of mine there. I didn't realize someone was using the pictures I took. I'll have to get better ones for them down the road. Very cool indeed.

I have seen them go for as low as $300 and as high as $750 depending on condition and the extras included like spare ribbons, cards, etc...They were super common at one point with 3-4 on Ebay at any given time. Recently, they seem to have become harder to find, but still not crazy rare or valuable.

Just saw this thread. I have one that I found on Craigs List for around $125.

It's a little beat up but it works. Unfortunately, I don't have any cards to buy prints with (but I have confirmed that it works by printing out a static image).

Anyone know how to get free prints out of the machine?

Unfortunately I'm also missing the side info, I'd love to find that sometime.
