Try Ebay as they would be the only ones selling video game systems now. Also Ebay would be the only ones selling those games. They are extremely old and are not usually in good working conditions due to the newer game systems now in demand. I had a hard time buying a Sega Genesis about 2 years ago for my son and went through about 3 until I found one that worked. Also the games are hard to get a hold of also as they are usually worn to death. Keep in mind that you get problems with the older units such as readers and circuitry and parts are extremely hard to find.

May I suggest getting a used Xbox system? Not the Xbox 360 though. Just the plain old Xbox system. There are used video stores out there that carry refurbished Xbox systems that you can buy for about $100 and you buy the insurance for $10. If the unit does not work or stops working within one year of sale you can take it back and get another Xbox refurb'd. We went through several units and that $10 insurance is worth it's weight in gold not having to spend another $100 again. Also there are loads of games on Ebay and Amazon for Xbox. My son has been into video games since Mario first came out a zillion years ago. He loves role playing games and action games.

EB Games (at least the one near me) sells old games

Also services like craigslist or kijiji where you can buy from local sellers would have them too.
