    Default jimmy conners tennis sealed FINALLY GOT IT!!

    How much is a jimmy conners tennis for nes sealed worth? I just came across one today at my favorite store but passed on it, thinking it was the snes one that was rare. But it turns out that this baby is an R6. Smack me now.


    Just picked it up today finally, read my post on the bottom.

    Dude, go back and grab it ASAP! My brother just sold a sealed Jimmy Connor's Tennis for $250 on Nintendoage this past February.

    Damn, the guys closing, at six, and hes open till 7. WTF!!!! There is a slight chance itll be there when I go back, I did see that box the last two times, as well as all the other same games around it. Maybe, hopefully itll be there next time. Cross your fingers

    Jimmy Connors is a lot rarer than most people think. I still have never seen a loose copy in my 12 years of NES collecting and it's one of the last 50 games I need to complete my US collection. Definitely worth at least $250 for a sealed copy. Hope you can still get it.

    Don't start a new thread, just update this one.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    I FUCKING GOT IT!!!!!!!!!! Nearly two months later it was still there. Unfortunatley its not dead mint, as the corners do have some small wear, and theres a push in crease in the bottom right corner. Also it doesnt have a hangtab, but it looks legit.I would call it 8.7 out out of 10 if not for the crease a solid 9 or more. This babies gonna hit ebay unless I get a decent offer. Ill get pics in while here.

    Congrats! I'm glad to hear that you finally got it.

    In the condition you describe, it should still pull $200 without much trouble. Could you post some pics of it when you get the chance?

    It does seem odd that originally he was so determined to get the game that he was annoyed the store was closing earlier than normal that day. Then he decides to wait two months?

    umm lets see, i live at home with my parents, and when they say were going to augusta, were going. Believe me every chance i got i asked if we could go, and they either said no or had other plans. So it wasnt up to me wether I was able to go there. I didnt WAIT, it was a matter of not being able to get there.

    And Ill get pics as soon as I can, I dont have my own camera so I have to borrow one.

    It doesn't matter if it took you two years, the important thing is the fact that you still got it.

    Do you know whether you're going to keep it or sell it yet?

    yeah zing's post irked me a little. I obviously wouldnt intentionally wait that long to get this, it was out of my hands. 90 percent of me wants to sell it, the other 10 wants to keep it just because, and hope someone doesnt find a warehouse full of them
