Adventure Time #4, Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton, a loose NES, a loose GCN with an official 251 memory card, Space Ghost Coast to Coast volume 1, Sony brand radio headphones, a PPG plate, and a SNES controller. Don't ask me why I bought the PPG plate, I still haven't figured it out.

I can't put my finger on why, but that GC's color looks... different. Does it have dust on it?

It's a regular old platinum colored one. It came from a rummage sale and it's still a bit dirty.

always thought the platinum 'cube was a tad ugly looking for whatever reason. Probably because none of the ones I've ever seen are clean...

It would've been cool to get a gold gamecube that's the same shade as the gold n64...

Yeah, it's probably just dirty. Mine's platinum and it seems... different, once again I can't put my finger on why.

It would have, but Nintendo was a lot less good about colors for the GCN than they were with the N64.

Japan got that cool looking orange one that we didn't get for whatever reason.

Actually we just got that color in controllers, not systems.
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who loves the Nintendo e-Reader.

I'm learning to make chiptune music in my spare time :P Check out my Soundcloud!

That would explain my confusion, although that was kind of jerky of Nintendo.

I suppose it would be possible to place an NTSC GCN inside an orange shell. That might be neat to try sometime.

10 dollars @ patapsco flea market in baltimore

Its a cool flea market it got raided by homeland security in april due to all the counterfeit purses and clothing and all the bootleg dvds sold there. There where no finds in the main building that charges 25cent admission. Outside up on the lil hill they have place where people sell there stuff out of the back of vans and where i found this stuff mixed in with used cd's.

All the dreamcast games are imports besides space channel 5 and a couple are still sealed.
