    Some guy crudely fits a SNES in a star wars toy, bundles it with mostly shitty games...
    Some guy trades CIB games for it....

    Nothing new really, I think there's a 64 similar too.
    Don't see why making a system bigger is practical.

    As far as I know, vintage Star Wars toys run a premium these days, so that trade could actually be almost worth it in the value of the toy itself.

    Also, how is that a crude job? I don't see anything wrong with it. The amount of complaining you're doing about things like this and RCG makes me think you'd be better suited to the NintendoAge forums. :p

    Well, for one, I don't think it's a very clean job, especially with the top of the snes just sitting on top of it like that. It looks like a quickly done hack job. Anyway, I was kinda shocked to see someone trade all those cib games for it. I bet the guy who traded the snes is jumping up and down in joy over that trade.

    I gave my opinion about it and wanted to hear from others if they would do a trade like this. Yeah, maybe it's not my business but it popped up on my feed today and I decided to share it here. The beginning of your post makes a great point, maybe the toy is valuable in and of itself, but then you go on to make a little condescending comment to me about "complaining." If I remember correctly you said some things about RCG, too.

    Anyway, you're a good guy and I'm not gonna bicker with you over it.

    lol, just cropped them real quick to further extend anonymity to the traders. I just wanted focus to stay on the items in question.
    Chief gets like that sometimes, I don't take it personally.

    Chief does no wrong :p Right @DeChief ?

    Personally I think it's amazing he actually even got a SNES into that toy. I mean I could too, but it probably wouldn't work after I stuffed it in there :oops::p And let's see if awesomeNES can stuff a SNES into anything better :D

    Yeah, I'm pretty good at stuffing things inside things ;)
    I personally am more into fine details when it comes to these sorts of things. And I especially wouldn't give up a CIB mega man 4, and X2 for that.. just saying

    Just see a lot of trades/sales go down and this one caught my eye. Not trying to come and complain lol.

    No idea why people jump down awesomeNES's throat about threads. It's a forums for discussion, you can agree and disagree that's fine.

    Yeah, I thought the off-topic section was for BS'ing about stuff lol.
    But sometimes I guess it can turn into a bro-down

    Honestly though, I'm probably gonna be absent from the forums for a while come January with school and stuff. So I'm gonna try to leave on a good note ;)

    I get it too. I just think some others take the internet far too seriously, and just like policing others for the sake of it. It makes it hard to not get defensive sometimes.

    If you're on the topic of games, and shitposting about hate for a certain product so be it. That's fine by me.

    I think Star wars is being hyped just a little too much recently...

    Thats exactly what I was thinking. And one of the reason why the guy may have made the (IMO) bad trade for it.

    Makes sense. The fact that EA managed to get me more hyped for Battlefront than Halo 5 also speaks volumes for just how hard the brand is being successfully pushed right now.
