I am in....
Without knowing the prices and current market for Nes games, my wife and I started collecting NES games around September 2016 (nostalgic bug ). We were then introduced to the youtube shows like Game Chasers, Pat etc ( via google). Price wise, the market seems to be peaking (we have the worst timing I guess) and with the nes classic edition and youtube shows,it seems like it keeps on increasing. When we find great deals at garage sales/flea markets, I guess it makes it more rewarding (Final Fantasy for $6 felt good). I found this site via google and it looks awesome!

Hey man... like you said, when you find the deals it makes it that much more rewarding.
Welcome to the chaos!
Welcome to NA mang. Here's a tip: Buy lots, sell what you have and keep the rest, you'll easily get the dirt commons that way. Plus there are some pretty fun ones in that category *cough*dragonspirit*cough*bumpnjump*cough*
Whelp... there goes the neighbourhood
Seriously, though OP... Welcome, enjoy the hunt, and have fun!
NA rocks!

Personally I'm jelly of that $6 Final Fantasy. I've been collecting since 2000 and have never had the chance to nab it for under $25.
And OP if you like RPGs you have to keep an eye out for Willow and Magic of Scheherazade. Both super cheap, super fun titles.
Welcome.
Focus on the deals; ask members! Everyone here hooks you up real nice!
Demand may go up or down, but the 'cool' factor of having an NES collection (I think) is worth the risk.

I second this. Don't pay more than the games/console/accessories are worth. Some items are just overpriced in the current market. If you're dying to play a game, buy a usb controller and play on a PC. Wait patiently, and you'll score some sweet deals which will make enjoying your gaming gear that much better. And remember that eBay and Amazon cost the seller so that always increases prices over trading on NA.
A way to get good NES deals at G---stop.com....Save 36% (sometimes more with 2 for 1 deals).
- G stop Pro members save 10%
- cag16 code at checkout saves 16%
- Giftcard disocounts (ex giftcardgranny) around 10%
- SAVER code at checkout (free shipping on 24.99+ purchase)
I did this (actually my wife did) for christmas for me and it worked great. Codes still seem to be eligible and at the time of purchase, it worked. The quality of games were surprisingly awesome. (mike Tyson, bionic commando, batman, super maro 2, contra, ninja gaiden).
And yeah, hunting is a little harder these days but every once in a while I stumble upon a decent deal at a used place (nothing crazy though, unfortunately) so it's still possible! Good luck adding to your collection!
i would say there might be deal(s) still out there w/ individual(s) not knowing at what they have
best time to start is sooner than later ... imo
