Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) Model SNS-001 with Controller and AC Adapter

This is a vintage 16-bit Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) North American model (SNS-001) released by Nintendo in the early 1990s. The unit features a boxy, two-tone grey plastic chassis accented by iconic lilac-purple sliding switches for 'Power' and 'Reset.' The kit includes one original wired controller and a black AC power adapter. The console exhibits a light grey upper shell and a darker grey lower base. Notable features include the top-loading cartridge slot with a protective dust flap and the prominent 'SUPER NINTENDO' logo embossed on the front left. Condition-wise, the item shows significant signs of age and wear. Most notably, the plastic upper casing exhibits moderate 'yellowing' or oxidation, a common chemical reaction in fire-retardant ABS plastics of this era. There are visible dark scuff marks on the left side of the unit and general surface grime throughout the console and controller. The controller buttons (D-pad, start/select, and the A/B/X/Y face buttons) appear intact but show surface dirt consistent with heavy use. The AC adapter is included, though its specific model number is obscured in the image. This piece represents a seminal era in home gaming history, characterized by its robust build quality and distinct early-90s industrial design, despite its current need for cosmetic cleaning and restoration.
