Is This NES Worth $16,000?
Never opened. Frozen in time. That’s what the claims are for a rare 1985 launch edition of the Nintendo Entertainment System being sold on eBay. Wrapped in plastic in a handled cardboard box, the NES up for grabs is apparently in the same state that retailers received it more than 20 years ago.

The Nintoaster Brings Power Of Top Loading, Bread Warming To NES
As the owner of a top loading NES, I can tell you there’s nothing quite like the reliability and satisfaction of vertical cartridge entry. And that dog bone controller? Like holding on to a cloud, it’s so comfortable. One enterprising console modder has decided to take the top loading bliss of the NES hardware revision and the usefulness of the toaster and combine the two into the Nintoaster.
While it no longer makes bread browner or blacker through heated coils, the Nintoaster does make for a snazzy, fully playable NES. It even retains its orange glow, sans cartridge melting heat! A completely useless making of video is available should you want to see this bad boy in action.
