Video Game "Look what I found"

[MrPopo]

I've been after one of these for a while and all I can say is that I hate your ass right about now.

Nice find though.....

Can't you just give your two weeks notice and then loot your store?

I'll keep my lawsuit free lifestyle, thank you.

The trick is to finger it on someone you hate. Plus, no one would suspect the guy who gave his two weeks notice. He's too obvious of a suspect.

Yeah, but the five cameras all recording me stealing shit in HD say otherwise.....

Plus the only demo units any store still has are PS3, 360, Wii and maybe PS2 (Even that's a pretty long shot now.) so it's not worth it anyway.

The Gamecube/XBOX/PS2 Generation mean the most to me because of my age and where my life is at now. I have a family and don't play the new generation systems as much anymore. And now i have kids also. But From 2001 - 2005 I was into gaming hardcore had a ps2 xbox and cube got all the video game magazines in the mail. Went to gamestop all the time, wasn't into collecting older systems at the time. Was always on video game message boards talking about what system is better. But Basically all that is over now, I hardly ever go into a gamestop anymore don't get excited about upcoming gaming releases anymore. Only have a few games for my next gen systems. Don't go on video game message boards anymore except for gamefaqs once in awhile. With a wife and kids I won't ever be able to get into games like i once did. So having a peice of gaming memoribla from that last gen era means a lot to me. I can't believe how cheap i got it to. The tv even has gamecube component cables hooked up to it. Not sure if thats how they were all displayed?

But I really do love it.

I'm starting to restore it right now and cleaning it up. The controllers on it were soooo tore up. They were some of the most abused gamecube controllers i've ever seen. Im installing brand new platinum controllers with a new platnium gamecube the one that it came with was beat up. Then i'm really just going to clean it real well other then that it's in good shape.

Don't use platinum controllers, the GS across town from me swapped theirs out for a platinum pair and since the platinum is really just silver paint over 0plastic it begins coming off as a powder from rubbing up against the metal latch that holds the controllers to the unit.

Use either black, indigo or spice orange controllers; or if you can't find any new controllers in those colors just gut the new platinum controller for parts and stick them in a good looking black/indigo/spice orange pad with loose sticks.

Not completely a video game find, but I recently picked up a Yamaha DX21 Synthesizer. Has a YM2151 FM chip powering it, so I can really get that nice FM sound. This thing is a blast to play. Here is a vid on how it sounds.



Also i got that DJ hero demo kit.
