my mom wants to give my 10 year old cousin my SNES and my games. I dont know. I just found the power cable yesterday and played for super metroid for like 2 hours. Should i keep it or be generous?

Keep it. Chances are that the kid is gonna bitch anyways since it's an old system and he'll want an XBox or PS2 anyways. At least you'll appreciate your SNES.

give it away, then mod your xbox and play the SNES emu on it.

i have 1 disc that has every SNES rom on it that I play in my xbox. however, playing with the xbox controller DEFINITELY feels alot different than the SNES controller.

Do you live near each other? If so just extend an open ended invitation for him to come use it any time he wants. But keep it at your house. :)

Of course I did see something the other day where they've taken all the ROMs fromthe old games and put them inside of a controller. You just plug the controller into the TV and can play all the old games.

Was at a friend of a friend's house and he's got this thing called Professor SF II... really wild... it sits on top of a SNES.
