imo, the people negging this and not negging the other ones listed on ozbargain just because the store reps took time out to show the community they are stocking it at the MSRP deserve to lose out, and have to fork out hundreds of more dollars on ebay later down the track.

seriously… keyboard warriors these days.

  Only what is preloaded. The device is physically smaller than the original.
  
  Fairly certain the Mini NES was hacked to allow people to play other games, so one can only hope the same happens with this ;)

Not negging the deal, but jeez, after setting up recalbox on the weekend, I am quite horrified by how much I had romanticised old games.
I wish I'd kept believing that snes was the bees knees and not emulated it. A few minutes with starfox had me in tears!
MK3 was somewhat fun but ruined for me by using a PS3 controller rather than the real deal.
I really want to love the old games, but buyer beware lol. It can ruin some memories.

You know, from the types of ppl commenting on this deal, it makes me wonder why you guys go out of your way to kick the smaller guys and you all support ebay/JB/EB. Go back to buying your 10c delivered plastic cockroaches in bubblegum prank items.

In the mean time, I wonder if these will sell out by Christmas.

  The reason ozbargain is so popular and has such a large community following is the strict enforcement of the rules on what constitutes a bargain by its users. You, as an ozbargain user, should appreciate that. There's no discrimination between a small or large company - if you don't follow the rules your post gets removed. Without it ozbargain would be nothing more than a site full of spam ads that no one wants to visit.

  Those deals also do not belong on OzBargain, but I can tolerate them enough to just ignore them rather than comment or neg them. The fact that a company is using this site to market full priced items so that it can generate more sales is straightforward advertising for commercial gain.
  
  I'd like to say it is a subtle difference, but it is a huge difference. This is not a place to generate free advertising.

If I was posting the deal as a rep, I would have offered a $5 discount. Would have been the only legitimate post about the console on here, and probably would have been picked up on Nintendo blogs etc. Just saying.

This is not the kind of community I want to be in. This negatively and critical shitposting is toxic. I like bargains, I like people helping each other, I like knowing about where to buy hard to buy things. I don't like reading negative posts bitching about others.

Can't we just be happy that there's a few places to buy these things since they're almost certainly going to sell out at the big name retailers?

OzBargain is not a place for free advertising.
This is not a deal, nor is it cheaper than the other 2 "deals".

EB: $119.95 (RRP) pickup or $124.95 delivered.
JB: $119 (0.79% discount) + $6.95 delivery = $125.95 delivered.
Gamesmen: $119.95 pickup or min $129.10 delivered.

I really like you guys and you have top notch service, but if this isn't just an attempt at advertising, then I don't know what is.

Next time, put it into the forums or actually try to make it a "bargain".

  I'm not negging because it isn't a bargain (it isn't); I'm negging because this is blatant advertising of something at the RRP. I've given very few negative votes, and this one is very well deserved. I'm quite surprised it hasn't been taken down already, but by now its probably generated most of the advertising it needed to anyway.

      Because they were put up by Ozbargain users - not the company selling the item. I think they probably belong in the forum, but I don't waste my time negging deals just because I don't agree with them or find them useful.
      
      I am negging this because this is using the site to advertise and make money. That is not even taking into account that the first two user-posted deals are better value for money and were posted well before this deal.
      
      This just opens the flood gates, and as someone else has noted does this mean that every time a new device is released that different shops can just come and use OzBargain as a marketing tool? Can't wait for the 7S posts, the Scorpio posts etc etc etc.

      There aren't any rules which don't allow merchants to post deals here.
      
      Furthermore, any store rep could easily get their relative/friend/coworker/stranger to post something for them and it'd be impossible to prove otherwise. So don't you think it makes more sense to vote based on a deal solely based on it's own merits?

I feel a bit indifferent to the fact that this post gets negged to oblivion (which is probably justified) but the other two don't. I don't believe there are specific rules to say that you should neg based on whether a rep posted the deal or not. I think all three posts should be consolidated into one thread and moved to the forums. That way the user can make an informed decision based on location, price and stock availability. The fact that the mods haven't done this already has me concerned.

Typical for the gamesmen to try and boost sales on a high demand product. I don't rate these guys one bit. A couple months back when the Nintendo Switch Deluxe Travel Case was sold out at Big W at $25 the gamesmen had a pre-order page set up for $29.95. I didn't pre-order because I didn't know when they would receive stock. Once they received stock they bumped the price up to $34.95 and when I asked them why the price increased they said it was because it was in high demand so they had to put it up. Factor in shipping and you were almost paying double what Big W were charging. Not long after that they put it even higher at >$40.
