The_Orignal 3 months ago#1 Hey guys I got the first Print of the NES Classic Edition, is there a difference between the first print editions vs the 2nd print editions? Mine doesn't have the ESRB logo on the bottom right front of the box here's a picture of mine. I got my NES Classic Edition in 2 weeks after launch. https://imgur.com/gallery/XQSbw

Hey man I'm not spamming the board, I just found out that the first Editions of the NES Classic edition are worth more than the 2nd print runs of the NES Classic Editions. But I don't know if it's true that's why I want to find out. That's all.

creep50 3 months ago#8 you are not flooding the board strikezone1, is just being silly...this is the best place i think to talk about it...being the NES board and all as for the actual topic..i'm not sure if there are 2 versions/prints ,just the ''american'' version and the ''european'' version (ignoring the Japanese Famicom that actually is different)..they have different boxes but the actual product is the same, with the same versions of the games San Andreas > > > > > > > > >Desert Bus > > > > > > > >GTA 4

Two weeks after launch.

Cloud75x 3 months ago#10 no difference. Only differences that I am aware of are... -NA and EU editions both use NTSC roms due to reasons -NA and EU have different boxes/box art -NA and EU have same games, famicom has different games -Famicom mini initially was packaged / was going to be packaged with 30 mini posters of the box art for each game. Mine never came with them but I remember seeing that as a major selling point for wanting it over NES mini (personally).  -Famicom mini runs off USB, 5v AC power brick sold separately.

Go on the 3DS board and search "Pikachu 3DS" and "Fire Emblem Fates Special". It's his thing dating back years. I'm very impressed he hasn't been banned yet.

The_Orignal (Topic Creator)3 months ago#12 So no one knows if the first print NES Classic edition is worth more than the later ones that were produced?

trumooch 3 months ago#13 The_Orignal posted... So no one knows if the first print NES Classic edition is worth more than the later ones that were produced? I wondered this myself. I have the first and second print and I just noticed that the cover was slightly different as you pointed out. I got my first one at launch (11-11-16) and my second one 2 weeks ago. I haven't opened either but I plan to open the one I got 2 weeks ago and keep my first one as a collectors item. www.twitch.tv/trumooch1 I need followers please!!!

proCalhoun 3 months ago#14 Yes, the 1st print is worth more because there are less of those that exist.

spooie 3 months ago#16 If people don't want to read The_Original's threads, they could simply, you know, NOT click on them. But then, that would probably make TOO MUCH sense.  Anyway... from a guy who has been reading gamefaqs for over 20 years, who cares if there are multiple threads here? This is a dead forum for a dead system. Any new conversation, the better.

The_Orignal (Topic Creator)3 months ago#18 proCalhoun posted... Yes, the 1st print is worth more because there are less of those that exist. This isn't true, reports show that more of the 1st prints were made than the 2nd print, most likely in this case it is the 2nd print that is more rare because less of those units were produced.

Maximothelad 3 months ago#19 When do we get Nintendo Power Mini? That's what I'm waiting for!

Hmm that could be the case for now. But if they do decide to make more (it might happen; it is not an impossible hope) most likely they will use the 2nd print and that would make the 1st print more rare in the long run.

Not only that, but I think that even if they never make any more of them in the future, the first print will worth more in the end just because (obviously) it was release first. But hey, this is just the opinion of a random internet guy.

Time will tell.

In most case first print is more rare/ valuable rarely do future prints give more value.

proCalhoun 2 months ago#30 Yes, I would not underestimate the power of a first print.
