Video Game "Look what I found"

[brandman]

After I opened it up and cleaned the connection it started to work a lot better. I still have to push it down to get it to play but I can just shove it into the NES and it will work most of the time. There is only a number of games it doesn't work very well at all (I almost have to play around with it) which is mostly those unlicensed Tengen games.

Well I wouldn't think you would want to play with it not pushed anyways, but it's good that you got it working. Now just clean the carts.

Yep, I normally keep my carts clean and clean off glue and markers or whatever is on the cart. I got lucky one time and was able to get rid of marker on a label without damaging the label.

Ok...This is Mrs Clem and this will be the find of the day...if not the week....I know it is my biggest find ever. I'm gonna build this up, so bear with me....

First, there was nothing of interest at a garage sale I was at. I asked about games or systems and the guy brings this out...



Cords tangled, but otherwise ok, but the deck, the poor, poor deck!



Oh, it gets worse...



Yea, what was he thinking?? (Oh, and he gave it to me for free...) At least he had his 10 yr old into retro gaming! Under were some games and This was the first one I pulled out......



I know, I know...This is suppose to be BIG finds....I'm getting there, believe me when I say it will be worth it! It gets better with these next ones...




And these...



And these...



Then there was this one...



And this one was nice....



Then my heart stopped....

When I pulled out this one.....

You ready??....You are gonna freak....for $2...YES! Only $2.....



I couldn't believe it! I knew it was a game my husband sought after, but I didnt know just how much until he got home from work and I showed it to him...We cleaned it and it fired right up. Needless to say, he took me to dinner tonight!

I bundled all of this for a grand total of $15.....And I made my husbands day. It was my only find today and my best find ever....How did you do??

That is too funny Wclem! I've seen some horrible condition SNES systems as well, I got one that looked like it had been played with out side!

Good find on the games.


As for my finds, nothing really game wise but gaming related.

Killer Instinct: Killer Cuts CD - $1 w/ sleeve.

I want EVO for $2!!!!

That is a super fun game, by the way. Probably top 10-20 on the SNES, in my opinion.

[mjmjr25]

In most opinions i'd think.

I doubt wclem is selling though, since mrswclem knew it was a want of his.

Nice find.

Was there really a need to make a separate thread for this? We have a "Finds of the Day" thread where this belongs:

http://www.racketboy.com/forum/viewtopi ... tart=13180

he's a semi/psuedo celebrity, I think he can get away with it.

Some validity to both counts, keep the thread clean for now please.

I saw this cabinet on KLOV awhile back iirc, is that where you found it Nathan?

Tighe messaged me. He knew I wanted it. I had asked about making me one when he first posted it after he built it. And there will be an episode dedicated to this gateway to Dimension 3.

The local Play N Trade guys love me. Snagged Dragon Warrior IV today for 10 bucks. Loose cart, but mint. Not too damn bad. I'll post pics tomorrow when I'm not sleepy.

@ MS.WCLEM

You should have your own user name. Not use your hubby's. Go ahead and make your own avatar too ms.wclem!

Why do you post all of your finds under his name? That Lazy bum!

That or he's too busy playing the games!

You Rock with that find of EVO!
