Yeah $15 is fair for sure.

I got some random things and some nice good stuff for free!

At the fleamarket I got for $6.00 an NES and SNES AC adapters.

For $2.00, I got a wireless Reciever for an oXbox logitech controler. (need to find one now!)

For $3.00 I found a Dreamcast controler (fair condtion). But the good thing is that it had accessories with it! A Pelican 4X memory card and a Pelican Rumble pack

Lastly I got for $6.00 these things: I am Legend DVD, American Psycho DVD, Medal of Honor Rising Sun GameCube (box no manual) and Tiny Toons Adventures Bab's Big Break Gameboy cart only.

I then went to Gamestop and I got an official PSP component cable for $5.39. At first I found a generic one, but as I kept looking, I found one more and that was the one I got!

As I was looking around at other games (and doing some pre-orders) I saw a man and his son were trading in games. It looks like he traded in some games earlier in the day and he was back for round two! He traded in lots of DS and PSP games before, and now he was trading in some more. He was carrying a bag of DS and PSP cases. I guess from what he said to the GS worker, he forgot to bring those earlier. The Girl took those anways.

I know this gamestop throws away their DS cases! So I talked to the Lead Guy and I mangaged to take these cases home FREE!

So I got these cases:

PSP: Lego Batman The Videogame, Disney Pixar Cars, Disney Pixar Ratatoulle, Scooby Doo Who's Watching who?, Spongebob Squarepants The Yellow Avenger

DS: Build A Bear Workshop, Monsters VS Aliens, Tecmo Bowl Kickoff, Mario Vs Donkey Kong Mini Land Mayhem, Lego Batman The Videogame, Phineas and Ferb, The Legendary Starfy, Bolt, Lego Harry Potter years 1-4, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Namco Museum DS, Mario Party DS, Lego Pirates Of The Carribbean the Videogame, Big Brain academy, Mariokart DS, Mario and Luigi Bowsers Inside Story and Super Mario 64 DS

and yes, the CODES WORKED!

Wii Mad World - $2.69 Gamestop[/b]
Finally bought this, always passed up in the past due to having the look of an unfinished game. That Black and White Graphic Novel affect is okay though sometimes hard to distinguish things on the screen. I love the Jet Engine level tossing enemies into the impellers and watching the red blood fly.

Nice find. Mad World seems to me be a game that'll be highly sought after 10 years from now.

A Savers opened up on the road I take on my after work commute. On one of my pop-ins, I found this mixed in with kitchen appliances. You can't tell from the picture, but it is the version that has the gamekey expansion slot in the game.

Nice? That silver thing on the upper/right side of the joystick? I just picked up a Ms Pacman a few weeks ago at Goodwill for $1.30. If I find them cheap, PnPs are cool designs.

$300 on craigslist, and it came w/three carts. Single slot cab. Carts are Bust-a-move, Aero Fighters 2, and Strikers 1945 Plus. Strikers does not want to work, even after a good cleaning Still a great deal though; the other two games play perfectly after getting the PSU output at an acceptable level.

Man, are people just cleaning out their garages of cabs right now or something? haha.

VERY nice. There is a 2 slot that I've been eyeballing in my neighborhood for a while now. I've talked to the guy, and basically I just need to pull the trigger. I want it soooo bad. And now you make me even more jealous! LOL.

If the price is right, go for it I hope you have good knowledge of JAMMA/MVS going in to it, and decent skills with a volt meter. If not, well, you better hope that thing was well maintined

I'll either have to replace the motherboard or my strikers 1945 plus cart. I hope it's the motherboard, as that's marginally cheaper. My closest friend who can test the cart on a known good mobo is a 60 mile drive

I had to replace the board on my 4 slot since it was giving the B240 error. But if it is only Strikers not working, its most likely the cart - sad to say.

But you already knew that, you are a wiz with cabs.

I had the same error on my 2 slot that came in my cab, but I was prepared for the worst when I bought it. Ended up with a 1 slot for like $80 bucks and it has been going strong since!
