Definitely an awesome deal, and an awesome item you want to have if you own a Saturn. It's basically just a memory card for the Saturn, and it's much larger than the system's save game memory. It's the only Saturn game save cart I recommend.

Find at the City Thrift. Got a 3rd party n64 controller. Has a blockbuster sticker on back. Reminded me of the Hori n64 controller so for $1.98 I will give it the pepsi challenge.

IMHO that's the best N64 pad. It has a real potentiometer for the analog stick and you can switch from analog to d pad without juggling the thing. If you don't like it, I'm sure you'll have no trouble selling it.

Yeah, those are pretty neat. I remember a friend having one back in the day. I've been wanting to pick one up, but only if I find it in the wild. I wont go out of my way for it.

Haha, I bought one of those controllers new for a 4th controller. Interact SuperPAD 64. Couldn't afford another legit one... so if you lost in a 4 player game you got demoted to that controller. No one liked it.

If some one wants to trade for mine, I'm game. Lol, its seen little use. My main complaint is the Z button is on the left hand, should be on the right. Also I have giant hands to man handle that left side.

PS: I just looked up this controller on ebay and I'm honestly blown away at the prices.. why is this horrible hunk of plastic worth so much. :shock:

We played that same scenario. :lol: Too funny. I always felt the stick was too smooth, if that makes sense...among other disqualifications.

Got Shining Force 3 scenario 2 for $30 total off ebay. The next cheapest copy of the game on there is $40. Still not much of a savings, but considering the 2nd scenario is the rarest of the 3, I'm happy. Now I just need to finish part 1...
