Video Game "Look what I found"

Bleh, that sucks. I was trying to be positive.

Nice NES grab Michi

I am glad you thought about using the broken DS as a GBA J_Wil. Most people view it as trash, but they can live on as a decent big GBA.

If he can get the carts to read that is .

I've been had like that before it's sketchy as hell when stores bag or reseal stuff. Personally I open anything I get from a second hand store anymore . On one to many occasions I bought sealed items on impulse thinking I got a great deal only to find out I bought an empty box . There really is no reason they shouldn't let you open a resealed/bagged item before purchase especially if they don't accept returns or list the condition specifically.

The top screen is cracked. Otherwise, it works and will clean up fine and be a nice $13 GBA player with a bright screen and a folding screen protector.

Or a really fancy paperweight...I spoke too soon. It doesn't read carts either. At least it will be a nice training project. I've never worked on a DS before so here a chance to get familiar with it.

Scrub the heck out of those leads on your cart and try to clean the head on the DS. Slots rarely just die, I bet with some elbow grease you may get it to work. Also, check your cart on another system.

Yay, pricey item checked off my want list. Got it for less than $100 shipped.

WOO dude! I'm jealous.

Nice.

Long live the SCD.

Been a few weeks so I popped in the pawns to see what was new. Got all of this for $43 after taxes. Keeping Catherine and putting the rest up on my sale/trade thread then ebay.

All CIB except Mario Kart which is missing the manual.

Thanks everyone. That particular thrift store is my favorite for a reason and I rue the possible day when they start looking stuff up on the internet.

I just now managed to clean all of them. You couldn't tell in the picture, but some of them were pretty dirty, a lot dirtier than they looked. Many q-tips have lost their lives this weekend. So far the ones I was really pleased about tested okay, but I haven't had time to go through all of them yet.

And then, of course, I read stuff like this:

If he can get the carts to read that is .

And end up getting nervous when it comes to testing the rest

He was referring to the DSi being used as a GBA. But if you cant get an NES cart to work with thorough cleaning its time to retin.
