Thanks! This one? I'll forward it to the Retro Game Store Directory.

Game World

(Freeways now jammed with Racketboy Gamer Hoosiers rushing to find any more) :lol:

Obligatory bimonthly post.
Always good to visit Gamestop for this mislabeled SKU. Five bucks, usually is a S-Video cable, but might get lucky to get this GameCube/N64 Component Cable - Used. Don't call, go see for yourself.

(Gamestop website now clogged with excess traffic) :lol:

EDIT
I'm was just as frenzied about that oops "AV Cable" buy on the Receipt. Googled the "GW Rewards" at the bottom, in desperation of beating the crowd. Didn't think its at the Guild War hits. Good luck if anyone finds more.

Looking back at that receipt one more time. "N64 Controller Ultra 64"; did you also get a N64 Ultra racer?

Love the Ultra Racer controller! Gives a great tight RC feel to all the racers, try the N64 Beetle Bug race game! PSX Crash Team Racing also works beautiful. A shame there isn't a Dreamcast version for Toy Commander. Wait, I do have that PSX adaptor, hmmm.

Okay, forwarded the address to the Lisa's Retro Store Directory.

You were very lucky with that cable! As in the Gamestop SKU mislabel, Gameworld probably didn't have a specific SKU for that expensive cable. They used the "AV" SKU just to get it on the inventory. Their loss your gain! Congrats!

EDIT
Crap! Crap! In going thru three different type Total Control adaptors and two PSX Ultra Racers, not compatible with Dreamcast driving mode. Oh well, there is always the V3 Wheel or DC Panther option. Ultra Racers still work great with their own consoles.
