I'm looking to buy the Sharp branded Famicom 3D glasses (no Nintendo logo, came into black and red box), as opposed to the Nintendo ones (Nintendo logo, came in silver and blue box).  Loose is fine, but they need to work flawlessly.  Please reply via PM with pictures and prices if possible.  Thank you!

There were some on eBay not that long ago, came from a Canadian seller. Boxed and complete, they sold for $50. I've not seen them around much though, so sadly they will probably be hard to track down.

Yoshi

Shoot.  I completely missed those, though I am glad to hear they weren't crazily expensive.

Can someone post pics of the item in general?  Never seen these...

You're in luck, I saved a picture from the eBay auction of the ones that sold not too long ago.

That looks so cool... Are there any functional differences?

Frank_fjs

Nope, they are identical to the Famicom glasses in every way, they just come in a different box.

Thanks for the image and info!  I think it's literally just the box that's different right?  No sharp logo on the glasses even?

Having never examined a pair in real life I have no idea whether the logo on the glasses themselves is different. It seems unlikely to me though, I can't imagine Sharp spending the money to re-badge the glasses themselves.

Oh yes, there is a Sharp logo on the glasses. They also have their own Sharp product code like the Twin Famicom.

I would've bought them immediately for $50, damn :( Only saw them on Yahoo once incidentally, they went for more than $50 though (brand new). I think something like 10k yen.

Damn, something else I gotta try and find now...

Thanks for the info!

I was going to grab them when I saw them but I had just recently purchased some fami glasses at the time, so didn't bother. Same seller also had ROB, Family Basic and DOREMI-KO that sold rather cheaply as well. Think he was clearing out his collection.
