    We sure do. It's hard enough to complete the set. Took me over a year to get 2009.
  • KellsKells
    I got a complete set. Also got a spare 2011 cart.

    You've been added to the list.
  • dquirosdquiros
    nice job Jon! seems like a very hard mission to get all these now.
  • thankyouforfuthankyouforfu
    I would love to buy one of the 8-bit or 16-bit XMAS if anyone is selling for a reasonable price.
  • UncleTuskUncleTusk
    lots of sex-mas going on in this thread!
  • Commander SantaCommander Santa
    Hot dang I'm a proud papa...



    Also, I did not mean the "HEROES" to look like it was scrawled by a serial killer.





    Thank you to everyone who has made this happen.



    I'll have to ask Shane if I can do an 8-bit Xmas Expose' in on of the up-in-coming E-Zines!
  • Jon SoloJon Solo
    Lookin good Santa! I'm glad we could both complete our sets on the same day!
  • thankyouforfuthankyouforfu
    when will 8-bit XMAS 2013 come out, and where? RetroZone?
  • bunnyboybunnyboy
    Your overlords were just playing previous years. When not drunk the NES 2011 was still the best game. How bad would it be if this year's NES game was single player only? SNES might have to be another port.

    2013 Reindeer Hunter?



    Zapper or optional controller with crosshairs for non tube gamers.
  • jfreakofkornjfreakofkorn
    thats a cool looking interesting set there ....



    whats the story behind them ...???
  • goldendark007goldendark007
    Every year a new cart is available at retrousb.com, but they stop selling them after the 31st. So 2008 is a 'holy grail' of sorts for repro collectors. I remember paying around 250 for it and have seen people pay past 500. It's a fun little set and I will be adding two new carts to mine every winter!
  • RpgCollectorRpgCollector
    Here is my games. All bought by me from Retrousb except 2008. Got that from Nesguy about 2 years ago.

    Don't know why I have not bought boxes for 2012 games yet:

    2008 - $400+

    2009 - $300

    2010 - $200

    2011 - $125

    2012 - $75



    I know they have sold for different prices, but this is what one should expect to pay or receive.

    How much are the SNES-versions worth at this point?

    And the best Card too!




  • KHAN GamesKHAN Games
    But what's the best game when you ARE drunk?



    If you guys come up with an icon for this set now that I've sold two of mine, I'm going to ACTUALLY make a serial killer "Heroes" list.
  • goldendark007goldendark007
    Thanks Jon Solo - lol.



    I don't think there is the same demand for the 16 bit carts
  • ElijahElijah
    Thought I'd post up pics of my Christmas cart set, which I posted in a thread last year. 

    Also have the ASMRetro Christmas 2012 gameboy cart, #3, that I got later, not pictured
