PAL NES Console. With or without some games. Small to keep costs down. Boxes unimportant, but the console to be fully working and in nice condition, please :)

Thank you.

I have a PAL NES with a bunch of games.  NES is working but very used and yellowed - interested?  Also have an Asian NES in beautiful condition!

I've considered adding a PAL NES console to my collection for years, as I have almost 20 PAL carts (including most importantly here, ones like Elite and Beauty and the Beast which just don't work on NTSC consoles). Unfortunately, I don't think I have a TV that will support the signal (I've heard PAL modes are increasingly common on modern American TVs, but mine are all old CRTs). Also, I'm not sure what I'd have to do as far as safely plugging it in.

There are some adapter boxes to run PAL machines on NTSC TVs. 

I have a Sachen PAL NES machine I am thinking about letting go of, probably sometime within the next year.

I've heard some mention of those converters, but usually to say they're pretty unreliable. Sachen PAL NES? They made a clone? I thought they just did games.

But if I did figure out a workaround, I'm fairly sure I would only want an original console. Actually a PAL top loader would be amazing, but I think they were only released in Australia and are supposed to be very rare.

Sounds nice!  Did it have different packaging and artwork on, any differences on the console as well?
