It has push buttons on the front to swap inputs, but I don't think they work without the power adapter.

I'm thinking about picking up one of these. Pretty much the same concept but with a 4 player multitap instead of storage. Willing to bet the adapter is the same as well. Only cost $7 with two day shipping as opposed to $5-6 for a replacement adapter so I'm gonna give it a shot. If nothing else it's another interesting accessory :P.

CRTGAMER wrote:@ emwearz - That Pac Pix looks interesting and exclusive to DS, nice discovery! Be interesting if there were a Wii version (won't happen but maybe for the WiiU) using the Wiimote to draw the walls.
I think it is defiantly worth owning. I don't imagine they will do much with the concept, since it came out almost 9 years ago.

It is a decent concept, it does get a bit repetitive after awhile and I only sat down with it for a hour or so.

Could work as a cheaper downloadable game on Wii U, doubt it though.

Girlracer has 2 on their BST, so i'm guessing they got in on the deal. Error or not, I'm baffled it took that long for corporate / someone / anyone to put it to a halt. Most major corporations have alert programs that will pop up on every company PC. It's meant more for natural disasters and other emergencies, but it certainly would work for something like this too.
yep I got 3, gave one to my mom (kind of funny since she got me the Mario & Luigi 3ds xl for xmas) sold 2 here for $110 each, so I paid for all 3 and made some money for some motorcycle mods.

My weekly pawn shop hunt got me:

DK64 - $2
Scribblenauts (CIB) - $7 (Got this for my mom thought she would think it was cute)
Rabbids Land (WiiU, CIB) - $7
MGS: HD Collection (360, CIB) - $7 (Wanted this for PS3 but settled for now)

Dug through the loose DS box at the pawn shop and walked away with a few things. At $5.33 it was a bit higher then I usually go I try to stick around $4-5 on loose DS games since I don't know the market well, but I did alright. I try to never leave empty handed :P.

Also picked up another Silver Slim PS2 for $20 came with the Silver Pack in controller. Only issues are it is a little scratched up and has a third party A/V cable.

I found a Sega Pico at Goodwill for $1.99. Works like a charm and came with some Magic School bus game. Pretty cool Sega Collector's piece to own.

I love Goodwill.

I found these in a big pile and bought them all, $2.99 each.

My girlfriend made me buy this because it was only $1.

Check your local K-Mart. The two in my area are selling Sony-published PSP games at $4.99 each. Picked up these today:

Last week I grabbed Fat Princess and the first LocoRoco. They didn't have Patapon 2 unfortunately.

Oh, and here's something I had never seen before. See the "Greatest Hits" on Patapon?...

It's a sticker.
