Sumer

Apparently, there was a sale on eBay for this pin set for $150 already tonight. No patience these days.

I see it has already been mentioned, but I am giving a +1 to the Arcade cab charm/bobble that the old site used to have. Non-Arcade 1 Ups, of course.

An example today: The Super Mario 35th Anniversary Pin Set was released for purchasers of Super Mario 3D All-Stars game for Switch. The pin "redemption codes" were gone within a half hour to an hour. I managed to get one, thanks to telework. The scalpers are in full force on eBay for this "freebie" item from Nintendo. As an example, someone is offering to sell his confirmed order for $1250. Many others range from $100 on up to $1000.

Good thread! I got the game on release day and started 64. Haven't gotten very far...was busy cleaning out the garage this weekend. However, I did manage to snag a set of the Mario pins tonight on the Nintendo site (the giveaway they are doing for buying 3D All-Stars). It was a pain to snag them, as everyone was hitting Nintendo's website at once, but I did manage to redeem the code. Some fools on eBay are already trying to pawn these pins off for $125 up to $1250. Un-freaking-believable.

I think I was also Sumer on the old site...but it could have been SumerNivek. Too many forums that I am apart of to remember each and everyone...but they always start with Sumer.

Hi all! I am another NA member who just found out that the old site went to pot literally last night. I had been absent from the NA forum for about three years as I started hanging around the KLOV forums after getting into Arcade cab collecting. That is still my current focus, but I will always have a soft spot for the NES, SNES, and GameBoy, as they were my childhood obsessions, along with my knockoff Atari (Coleco Gemini). Anyway, my jaw literally dropped when I saw the NA website last night and thought what the heck happened, then read up a bit on this forum and other online outlets about what went down. A shame. Looking forward to talking with all of you old NA people moving forward. As well, if you are on the KLOV arcade forums, I am also Sumer over there as well, so feel free to drop a line if you also a member of that forum too.
