Does anyone have a NEX?? I was trying to find somewhere local to buy one because the website says gamecrazy and gamestop sell them. I went to gamecrazy today and they had no idea what I was talking about.

If you do have one, what do you think, is it a good console?

Im pretty sure most people said it was a piece of shit system.

You know, people.

There was a huge hype thread on the DP boards awhile before the system was ever released. Then after the system launched and the people that pre-ordered found out the real details about the system, there were riots in the streets. Im pretty sure there were issues with certain games being played properly on the NEX and some audio/video issues.

There are wrong colors displayed and sound problems. Castlevania III and River City Ransom don't even work, apparently. (This is what I summarized from all the reviews, anyway). It's unfortunate because it's an awesome concept, isn't it? The manual for it looks frickin' sweet, too.

Until the next brilliant scheme, nothing beats a toaster.

I just stick to my toaster and my FC Game console, that works with all games, everytime :D

Or you can drop them a line and ask where they are sold.

This has been discussed and discussed and discussed - heatedly, I might add. The search feature above would've pointed you to every review, opinion, praise and criticism this console has received. Here are just a few threads that the search engine popped up when I typed in "nex:"

And there are many, many more. Some of them haven't turned into flamefests either.

And, now, I lock yet another Nex thread.
