    Default What Style NES is you Favorite?

    Some people like the VCR style. Its old school boxy-ness. Its sharp, bright picture quality. The original controllers have a sweet color scheme, too.

    The Top-Loader. Its got a sweet look, and its pretty small. Games work easily on them. Dog-Bone controllers rule the skool.

    The Famicom. Its got cool colors, and the controllers fit onto the console( dont they?) You can use a Famicom disk system+ a bunch of exclusive titles from japan.

    Famiclones? I dont know how many there are...which do you like?Pirate games are the sweetness...

    Hmmm...Anyone?

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Agreed. I like the design of the Top-loader, but they took out the AV outs, so fuck em. The toaster is the OG classic nintendo, and with proper care they work just fine.

    After years of blowing, bashing, Q-tipping, queitly negotiating,
    screaming curses, begging , pleading, hoping to get my NES games to play ...I got a Top-Loader .
    I use to love and hate the NES because it took so long for it work.It seemed to take magical powers. Plus, half the games were a complete mystery as they had not worked until last year.

    I walked into my favorite thrift by chance, and that Top-loader was so beutifull sitting there all by itself. I ran over and snatched it up; the owners berely noticed, they think Im crazy for liking the stuff so much
    Ill never let go of this console, not even for a better looking one. Ill always see it as one of my better finds.

    Shouldn't there be a selection for the AV Famicom?

    Also, as much as having a top-loading system helps, the fact that so many of the games out in the wild are dirty as hell means I still have to whip out the Q-Tips.

    Well, I've had my toaster forever, so the choice is rather one-sided.

    The Toaster looks and acts like a VCR that plays games. +10 cool points.

    The Top-Loader is streamlined and slick, but no A/V ports? +1 cool point.

    However, nothing, nothing can compare with the Sharp Twin. Plays both Famicom and FDS games. Smooth design, with controllers that fit inside the system...mmm, sexy.

    I like them all (don't have a famiclone tho) but I 'd have to say my fav is my AV Famicom - all the goodness of the NES toplooader with the AV ports instead of the nasty RF.
    But how can you go wrong with Nintendo at any rate??

    The toaster, hands down. I wouldn't pass up a top loader at a reasonable price, though.

    The toaster NES is better looking, better quality, better everything. And once you add in the nostalgia factor, it's no contest*.

    The Toaster Style Nes will Always hold a place in my heart..I remember so many years ago my Brother and I got a nes when they first came out..We played Super Mario Bros and Zelda So Much...We manage to beat Super Mario Bros but Zelda we could never beat..Until a Couple of years Ago..Anyways the Orignal Nes is my choice.

    Like the toaster the best! The top loader version looks cooler to me though.
