Hey... got a question for ya...

Ok, so this kid named Jim buys this system back in 95 called the Super Hyper Floptendo, and it's a 16 bit system.

Then, in the same year, this other kid named Bob bought the Mega Ultra G-Drive.

Both systems are fairly similar, they both have the same bittage CPU and fairly the same amount of graphic and sound capabilty.

So a few years later, both systems are now outdated, and they don't go for much. but! the floptendo weighs 4 kg/lb, and the G-drive weighs about 1 kg/lb.

Personally, if i had both systems, i think that i would want more for the floptendo rather thant he G-drive because it weighed more. is weight ever an issue when parting with old systems? i mean, it's like trading a gunstar genny cart for a poo condition ninja combat (or any other CHEAP neo game you think is bad)... even though the ninja combat sucks, i think that because it weighs more, i would want the gunstar cart + something else to "compensate" for whatever else there is to compensate for.

This, i think, is the massive weight of the cartridge. What do you think?

Di to the scuss...

that was just an example. re-read it my post.
The main question is: Is weight a factor in price?

no, weight's not a factor in price for a system or cart.

weight does have a certain cool aspect to it..but should it be included in price? no way..but i get how you feel empty when you buy a small, yet cool thing, instead of the big box with stuff inside that isn't necesarily good.
