And are the S-Video cables and controlers universal?

Yeah, Japan. And japangamestock.com (http://www.japangamestock.com/buy_video_games.php?cPath=67&products_id=5445). Shipping's gonna kill ya, though.
Other than that, camp out for one on eBay that's close to where you live.

I have two boxed ones for sale. One nice box and one a little worn. I want Ebay prices for them and I live in Portland. If you just want to play Super Famicom games you can trim a tiny piece off in the cartridge slot of a SNES system and use it. I don't have any game reccomendations but if you search the old posts on this message board you should find some.
Thanks, y-bot

And not to mess up any deal's that might be happenin' you could always check out ebay.co.uk there's always a few Super famicoms, both boxed and unboxed for some good prices.
I saw one a few weeks back unboxed but nice and clean go for £24, which is around $40 to $50 and shipping would be around (£10 standard parcels/console only!) which is around $17, just to give you a ruff idea,

You're not messing up any deal I was working on. I just sold the two I had on Ebay for $70 and $80. Too cheap I guess since they both sold out of my Ebay Store within a week.

Thats not a bad price, when the super famicom first was launched, a friend of mine (and his brother) got it straight away (here in the UK)
and he paid around £350 for it, to everyone in the universe for those few weeks, the SFC was the second coming, and even back then £350 was crazy for it, but it was a sweet machine! :-P

Wow, 350 pounds! What was the pounds/dollar exchange rate then? Still 1.5 to 2 times. People are sure willing to pay crazy prices for stuff to have it first. Not too long ago soem boxed SFC systems were going for $150-$200 but they seem to have come down like most everything else. I guess I could've sold them for a little more though since they sold so fast. Oh well.
