    They look gross, and are 30 bucks just for the system, no accessories. AH. I have 5 snes's so I think I will paint one of them sometime. Same with one of my extra nintendos.

    I wish I saved my 2nd SNES and sold it now. That paint job is terrible just because the leave the grey. The all black one looks cool. Someone is probably thinking there getting a rarity.
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text

    The Black would look good if the whole thing was black with the exception of the 2 switches. However those are a bit high for nothing but paint and the unit.

    I feel stupid but I actually bought one from this seller for an ungodly amount of money. When I found out it was just paint (because it says nothing about paint in the auction), I complained about it and got them to give me a refund on my money, but after it all I still paid about waht these people paid for this system.

    So recently I have bought the bit set to take these apart. I am thining about painting my yellow snes's and selling them like this guy. Maybe even custom colors...? Anyway I am not sure if I will do that or not. Just my 2 cents.

    Well, it appears that the one I have that was painted, the stickers were removed and replaced afterward which I think i would have a hard time with. The "Super Nintendo" logo would have been painted over if the grey part had been painted. I think maybe I will try some paint and see how it works. My guess is that any high quality spray paint would do. The paint on mine is flat black and not at all glossy.
