NES Top Loader Close Look - 12 Days of Nintendo Christmas Day 5

[@Majora_901]

The Wii has never stopped being fun to play. Back in my day, it was also a great way to watch Netflix and KZbin.

[@emilskaralis5786]

Playstation 4 because it was my first homeconsole

[@BlameAntix]

If the Switch wasn't around to take the crown, my favorite system would've been the Gamecube. So many unique games emerged from that system that I love going back to. Animal Crossing, Mario Sunshine, Wind Waker, there's no end to the fun to be had with the Purple Lunchbox.

[@user-yk9yz1wr1h]

Pikmin. I also love the gamecube

[@NicktoonsA]

@coolerRVNG yes but in the west it was gc

[@frafrafrafrafra]

Luigi's Mansion too

[@8bitneslife1985]

Twilight Princess.

[@AsianAccordionist]

Scored one of these with three controllers, 4 games and a ‘84 Pac-Man desktop arcade game for $20! That number still does work! It transfers you to Nintendo of America.

[@Millwright4life]

That control deck top loader is my favourite vintage console. Very dependable and rare 😅. I have mine complete in box like yours. Love the dog bone controller.

[@MrOmirodss]

My favorite game system is definitely the first one i ever owned, the nintendo 64 ! Super mario 64 and Super smash bros are my go to games for any couch parties with my friends

[@retrothrift]

In the past my mainstays were the Gameboy/Gameboy Color, Sega Genesis, and the N64. Now 25 years later while still playing all of the previously mentioned systems and many others, I'm really enjoying my 3ds and my Nintendo Switch.

[@tinamoore9766]

Excellent collection our favorite Nintendo system will always be the old nes system keep up the excellent work

[@shaitet]

My favorite system is definitely the PS2. So many hours were put into my slim, and it's still that way 10 years later. So many different games and it has my favorite controller ever.

[@mootsnoots]

I think my favorite game system of all time is the n64. I got it for Christmas the year it came out and absolutely loved it. Loved the selection of games and the graphics at the time. And you just can't beat original 007 goldeneye

[@prestonb5636]

My favorite system is the Nintendo switch. This console has some of the best games (botw, oddysey, links awakening, sword and shield) which makes it great. Also though, it lets you take it on the go and the controllers are creative.

[@NickTendoGames]

My favorite console is probably the Wii, I would say GameCube, but I haven’t played enough of it to warrant calling it my favorite. The Wii is surprisingly underrated for what it is. Obviously, it has a lot of shovel ware. But It has fantastic games like Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. Wii Sports and Resort. And many many more.

[@heavymetalmikey95]

There is quite a few underrated games for the Wii I'm trying to find me a copy of lost Shadows I played a little bit of it way back

[@NickTendoGames]

Heavy Metal Mikey i’m Still missing a bunch of big first party games from the system. Super Mario Galaxy 2, Animal Crossing City folk, Donkey Kong country returns, the Metroid prime trilogy, Pikmin. (Although I don’t know whether I should get those last 2 for the GC or the Wii.) and many many more. I do hope you find everything you’re looking for soon! :D

[@34jetli]

I love the Super Nintendo because of my childhood memories and masterpieces such as Zelda A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, and Earthbound.

[@twilit8162]

Glad to hear you finally got your hands on that, the toploader is one of my favorite, more obscure console redesigns! My favorite console was the Super Nintendo, and because I remember watching my father play A Link to the Past as me and my brother watched. He always turned up the volume during the victory jingle after beating a boss, which I do too nowadays on my Super Nintendo Mini in College.

[@catgirl_eva]

The Game Boy has to be my all-time favorite console. That little handheld, along with a copy of Pokemon Red, was my escape from my parents arguing while we were getting ready to move to VA back in 2000. Whether I was at home or I went out, I had my Game Boy. Come to think of it, that might be part of what spawned my love for portable gaming.

[@command3rlucas294]

Without any doubts, I think the Gamecube is my favorite system. Surprisingly enough, I did not grow up with the system, like most people. I got my Gamecube only 2 years ago, as a birthday gift from my dad, and I love every game I buy for it. Some of my favorites are The Legend of Zelda The Windwaker and Chibi-Robo. Nice toploader by the way! I hope to get one some day.

[@alyssacody6437]

My favourite system is the GameCube. So many great games came out of that amazing cool looking console

[@aidanplush]

The Wii was big part of my childhood, when I was 6 (I'm 15 now) I got a Wii for my birthday along with Wii Sports and Mario Kart Wii. For years I spent hours into playing it, from winning rainbow road for the first time to beating subspace emissary in Smash Bros Brawl. This console has built many memories to me. Unfortunately I gave it away to save up money for a switch, which I honestly regret so much. I will miss my wii and I'm thankful I got to grow up with it.

[@SteveGameSDG]

The first system I truly ever bought for myself was a Gamecube. I started gaming when I was four, back in 1990. I had an Atati 2600 that caught fire. My next console was a Genesis at Christmas 1992. I had that until I was 15 (2001), when I traded that for an original Playstation. By the time I did that trade, the Genesis had suffered a few shorts in it. A decent amount of weight was required to get the player 1 control port and power supply to work. I also briefly had a PS2 that was gifted to me. But the Gamecube was my first console I truly paid my own money for. Gamecube remains my personal favorite console, due to having so many Sonic games, the better version of Mortal Kombat: Deception, Super Mario Sunshine, and of course, THE most comfortable controller ever made.

[@kyrodeath7484]

I don't have one favorite game system, I have two the N64 and the gamecube. I love them cause it is the consoles that I grew up with

[@thenintendoroom398]

My favorite system is the Nintendo Wii. It was one of my first systems, and I like making Miis. I also like Wii Sports.

[@TostetoLightsky]

The Gamecube was an important part of my childhood, I remember getting mine at Media Play back in the day, along with Luigi's Mansion and Smash Bros Melee. So many great games to choose from, it was a system I really enjoyed playing games on as a kid.

[@8bitneslife1985]

Media Play ruled.

[@irishgavin6687]

Favorite system is nes

[@StxrmzYT]

Nintendo GameCube I grew up with Mario games on GameCube and I focused on GameCube after watching your entire collecting tip 101 and loved collecting it

[@kitedj123]

One thing you didn't mention about the Top Loader, It has no region lock so unlicensed games and PAL region games work right away without an import adaptor. (Famicom games still need an adaptor.)

[@PPMax.KirbPro]

My fav is nintendo ds/3ds, lots of good games

[@jak3y3]

My favorite all time system is the PS2, I have a lot of great childhood memories and it held some of my favorite games ever on it

[@bcrowie1]

My favorite system is the original Xbox. I was 12 and saved all my money to buy it and a game called bloodwake. That wasn't too great of a game, so eventually I got, and played the hell out of Halo and THPS4. Too many hours playing Tony Hawk 4 with Adema and Linkin Park in the background... Nostalgia is a beast. Awesome video! I used to have that top loader. Unfortunately, my mother wasn't too aware of electronics so when the power cable broke she just threw the whole thing away rather than replace the power block. I'm still upset about it to this day lol

[@dad7275]

I actually own top loader, and toaster. I chose to use the toaster because of the av hookups. Might get my top loader modded one day for av though then that would change.

[@Demeech]

I would just get a Retron HD. They're only around $25-$30 and play all your NES games in HD. The sound and colors are a bit off, but it works great.

[@dad7275]

@@Demeech I own a Retron 5 and it's a decent alternative but suffers some lag. I even bought a hdmi to composite converter to play it on a crt TV which seem to help lag a little, but did not eliminate it. But Retron 5 is nice for some games, but Mario games I'd highly recommend original hardware because lag hurts gameplay on games like that.

[@rickeyrankin8457]

I'm missing the box for my top loader I just have the system and dogbone controller

[@adrielcorteshd2077]

Can I get an NES classic edition

[@allenryals1321]

My favorite is probably the Wii U. I know it didnt get a lot of love, but it had a lot of great games, 2 awesome Zelda Remakes, Hyrule Warriors, Splatoon, DKC Tropical Freeze, Mario 3D World, Mario Maker, so many good 1st party titles. Also it had the best virtual console to date. It basically became my Nintendo machine.

[@JayJayden45]

Honestly, honneesttly I think the Switch is my favorite console. It's the most fun I've had with a console in a very long time. But for the longest time my PS2 was my favorite! I grew up renting so many games on it, playing with friends, watching movies on it, it was great!

[@heavymetalmikey95]

My favorite console of all times is the N64 remember playing it all the time with my cousin playing it today takes me back to the days before I messed up though with my smallest collection it's still my favorite

[@Blu_Rhapzody]

My favorite game system is the Wii because it brings me back memories of my childhood and playing New Super Mario Bros with my siblings.❤️

[@RealOriginalJ]

Snes is my favorite Nintendo system of all time

[@Watts_Auto_Works]

My favorite console is the wii u because it was the first console I bought myself I got it and I remember playing during my birthday and just chilling playing with friends.

[@Tamarind93]

My favourite has to be the ps1 just for the nostalgia and it was the first console I ever owned

[@luner3736]

My favorite game console was the Nintendo 64 and its because of mario party and all the different colors the system had I also love the controller which some people had a issue with but it always felt good to me

[@Korey-rb6bk]

My favourite console is the SNES. The games were probably some of the best during the 16 bit era, and at the time, it was a huge step ahead of anything else. The DS and the Switch are tied for second. Weird that the top loader is only coax out. The Japanese top loader Famicom had an AV port as the only output. (Called the Famicom AV) Great review as always. Keep them coming!

[@Kyoyaxcloud]

I think my favorite is actually the PlayStation 2. It has a ton of games and I’m still playing it to this day.

[@BoltingMouse2]

My favorite is the Nintendo GameCube. I like the GameCube so much, as it was the most gaming console I played the most and plus so many great games to me like Super Smash Bros Melee, my favorite GameCube game as well with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle that got me into the Sonic series. So many good game compilation like Mega Man and Sonic in my opinion. I like the GameCube controller as well, it's been my life when I was in elementary school and I remember going to my cousins house playing Super Smash Bros Melee and Mario Party 7 all Saturday night. So many good memories with the GameCube.

[@susanfit47]

The NES is my favorite Nintendo system of all time. I love the first one and the second one a.k.a. The New-Style NES (also known by its model number NES-101, the New NES, the top-loading model, or simply the Top Loader). Nintendo marketed the New-Style NES model as the NES Control Deck, exactly the same as the original NES-001 model, only with a "new design" mark on the packaging almost 28 years ago.

[@honeybug_]

the og DS is my favorite ❤️ so nostalgic for me

[@vanguard7551]

My favorite game system is the PlayStation 4 there’s so many jrps on Thats system and also Spider-Man is an amazing game

[@TheSkullbones17]

My favorite game system of all time would have to be the PS2 because tit has so many games it has to offer especially ones like Ape Escape, Street Fighter, Bloody Roar, Hot Shots Golf, Disney Golf, etc... and I just have so many fond memories with it!! I love every system about almost equally but the PS2 just really had more of an impact on my life even to this day!

[@lennonrichards]

Wii for sure. Best product quality, best games good controls. I like also what they did with wii fit

[@ryschy1059]

If I’m correct, there’s models of this out there with the a/v out from the Super Nintendo all the way to the GameCube. It’s even rarer.

[@ThyChaseBelonga]

You finally got the tip loader, nice

[@ThyChaseBelonga]

N64 is my favorite console because I grew up with it and I have probably 20 with almost every game

[@rollingcameraproductions7103]

My is probably the PS1 because it’s library is so varied that it can appeal to anyone

[@tacocheif429]

My favorite system was the GameCube, I still have my childhood one plus one I modded with LEDs

[@sethallison5682]

I got a top loader for my birthday brand new sometime in the mid 90’s. I was so stoked. I had my little stack of nes games but our old style nes hadn’t worked in years. On my birthday after school my parents were waiting out front in the car. They popped the trunk and that little guy was waiting there with the 49.99 Kmart price tag still on it. Money well spent, it still works to this day. I don’t mind not having the av. Even my modern flatscreen has a coaxial hookup in the back for an antenna. And yeah it’s not the best output quality but these are SUPPOSED to look like sh!t, it’s the way I remember it from my childhood. When I want HD I use the mini console.

[@rdandes47]

The GameCube is my favorite because of game selection, graphics and awesome controller concept which was Comfortable in your hands

[@wowzagh]

My favourite console has to be the 3ds.so much fun!

[@sonictonic_]

The phone number is still the same for Nintendo support! :)

[@josephsparacio6700]

My favorite system would be the nintendo switch because you can play in so many ways and play a lot of great new and old games.

[@kevinnguyen3389]

My favourite system is the 3DS. I loving owning the Pokemon Red/Blue New 3DS. The 3DS is my favourite is because of the amount of games the system has, especially Pokemon

[@PlushieMaster]

My fav is Wii my fav games are Sonic and the Black Knight and new Super Mario Bros Wii

[@posearya9652]

The switch its amazing. the ability’s to take/use it every where is unlike anything.

[@M_Riolu]

My favorite console is the Wii U. I have about 5,000 hours maybe more on the Wii U. I don’t know why but I just love it

[@cario0236]

The switch would be one of my most favoirite systems of all time, since it is a home console that is portable! If the switch wasn't around, either the Wii u or the 3ds would be my most favourite consoles of all time, since they are both good consoles that have good virtual concole and are backward compatible with, for the wii u, wii games and, for the 3ds, ds games.

[@rs.matr1x]

My favourite consoles of all time are the Zoga 8bit console and the micro genius IQ 501

[@jonathanmena6639]

My favorite system of all time is the Nintendo gamecube because of the controller and the games

[@DJSquirtle]

My favorite system of all time is a tie between the Gamecube and the Wii 👌🏽

[@jessemcglothin8066]

My favorite console would have to be my Wii U because I grew up on it and I still play on it today

[@techengine64]

The Sega 32x is really good !

[@joshuawick5382]

You can use RF on 4K TV’s

[@Lasag]

I recently dug out one of these systems and cleaned it out, but it isn’t mine (meaning it’s a little bit older tech than i am used to), so for the toploader I was wondering how to specifically turn it off without causing loud static and losing save data on my cartridges. As an explanation, whenever I flick the power switch down to turn it off, the screen goes static and it makes a very loud static-y sound. Is there anyway to avoid this? I’ve tried holding down the reset button and flicking the power switch but it does the same thing. I’m wondering if that’s just how it is considering that turning off the power interrupts the connection, but if it’s possible to change this using just the power and reset buttons, I would be thankful. (Side note, can someone explain to me the purpose of the reset button? Thanks!) Yours, -Lasag

[@pinkandbluebloxplayers3320]

Well it's hard to me to choose what it's my favourite console and to be honest I like them all why because it's giving a nice retro looking and even more collectable

[@JBBRICKS1]

I have a control deck it’s pretty sweet!

[@7riforc3]

I need help i can't find the cables or av cables for the NES top loader someone pls help

[@jaxsonsmith8261]

Nothing is better then the original.

[@cooperbartlett885]

Yep, the Switch has to be my favorite console of all time. I don’t use Switch mode all the time, but the gane lineup is totally wicked!

[@Itsmealder]

The number still works

[@derek-64]

i honestly don't care about winning any prizes but my favorite console of all-time is the snes. and i live in the US so i have the NA version, and honestly i like that look more than the euro/super famicom. just my preference. i love the look, the controllers(although the other controllers are nice with the multi-colored buttons), the games, the boxes. the decals on snes game boxes are awesome and some games have freaking awesome box art so that makes it that much better! as for the nes top loader i never had one. currently have an original, though.

[@Mr.Ben.]

Thats a really collector item!

[@jasonjones649]

Hello, I'm new to the channel and am loving your content! My favorite system of all time has to be the gamecube.

[@thesaltypig]

My fav game system must be the n64 as it was my first system I played and Mario 64 is amazing haha

[@deepchocolate7984]

I just called that number and it’s still working and it’s customer service but they were closed

[@RedDragonTony]

For me, it would be the Nintendo GameCube. I had a lot of playtime with this console and I've been looking into getting GameCube games that I've missed on over the years. Nintendo 64 is up there as well.

[@samuelbaugh4952]

A comment unrelated to the giveaway, this NES model is actually derived from a famicom revision called the AV famicom. It’s a really great model because It has the standard Nintendo AV port seen in the SNES, N64, and Gamecube. The system also has NES style controller ports on the front, and even comes with 2 of the “DogBone” controllers. The only flaw is while the Japanese Dogbone controllers function identically to the American ones, the cords are only 3 feet long.

[@ryanwillette145]

My favorite has to be the GameCube or N64, both have so many great games

[@DNL0JD]

The console I like the most is the PS2 for the great variety of games. Second would be N64 since many of the games in there are my favorite, and the nostalgia.

[@Omxga7]

Wii because I got it for Christmas and was so shocked

[@Donutello333]

I absolutely adore the ds lite

[@Fits124]

I mean what i am about to say is preety rare bute my favourite system of all time is the wii u😂. The reason for that being that it was what really got me into Nintendo and i have so mamy amazing memories of playing with it with a friend of mine

[@Gamefun124]

My favourite game console is the GameCube cause it was the console I grew up with

[@WindUpTsukumo]

It's a bit of a tough choice maybe the switch. Cause I love the fact I can play it in handheld or console mode. I don't like being stuck to in one spot for long when gaming. The switch allows Me to move away from the tv if I need too.

[@paulbradley705]

nobody i knew had a gamecube , everyone had nes,snes,n6e sega masterdrive and megadrive.

[@psyducksquad715]

My favorite system is the Nintendo Gamecube.

[@samuelbaugh4952]

I can’t pick a favorite console honestly, it depends on what I feel like playing at the time lol. I really appreciate all of them for different reasons. I will say that for me, the N64 and SNES probably has the most “play for the rest of my life” type of Games out of all of my systems.

[@OjamaLemon]

My favorite Game system is the Xbox 360. So many great games, and the controller is the best of all time imo, maybe the Xbox one controller ties it

[@GENERALMEGATRON]

Hello friend, very nice collection, I can make you an inquiry. Could you help me with the measurements of the Nintendo Top Loader packaging box? saludos desde santiago de chile

[@jordandavies2614]

The Sega saturn is my favorite system

[@DevouiDevoui]

My favirote is the Nes because its old

[@dino988]

SNES or GameCube would be mine with the Switch rapidly moving up the ranks

[@fluffymacaw933]

I just bought the top loader

[@Zcat7]

Its RF can you read?

[@Wheels8504]

I had my mom buy the top loader NES when my toaster model blew a fuse. I was not and still am not a fan of the lack of A/V cables. I'd buy this model again if it didn't have A/F.
