As I recall, the dots were scratch-off areas (like instant Lotto tickets) involving some sort of game. I think the objective was explained on the back of the cards.BoneSnapDeez wrote:What are all those dots on the cards?
Awesome! I would bet dollars to donuts all that pin connector needs is a through cleaning. No need to replace it.BumbleChump wrote:
Also, NES! The box said $20 on it, but when I went up to pay, they said it had been returned previously because it didn't work. So I got it for $5. All it needed was a new pin connector and now it works great! Woo!
Very Nice! The crazy part is your coworker had all that NES stuff since he was a kid and now getting rid of it! Not often an adult can have an opportunity to rediscover treasures of their youth like that. At least in good hands and not donated to a Thrift Store. All the rare NES documents would have been trashed otherwise.Mechblue wrote:Got some stuff from a co-worker who's family is cleaning out their garage. Finding a lot of his childhood video game stuff. So he offered it to me before they get rid of it.
Some pretty good game stuff and lots of interesting paper work. I'm always interested in the paper stuff because it is always gone. And these cards are something I've never seen before. They're pretty neat.
Nah, the cartridge would slide in and out with zero resistance. That thing needed to be replaced.Teh Lurv wrote:Awesome! I would bet dollars to donuts all that pin connector needs is a through cleaning. No need to replace it.
That just means they used a Game Genie and/or left a game popped down in there forever. Bending the pins in would have solved that, along with some cleaning.BumbleChump wrote:Nah, the cartridge would slide in and out with zero resistance.

bending the pins is such a pain in the ass. i did it once, and i will probably never do it again. it's worth the $10 or whatever a new adapter costs for me to not have to sit and fuck with those things.Hobie-wan wrote:That just means they used a Game Genie and/or left a game popped down in there forever.
