So I just acquired a pretty sweet Nintendo box. It's pretty banged up, but I'd say it was totally worth the 25 USD I paid. I really did need more boxes anyways :mrgreen: . My roommate found it at a thrift store and got it for me.

Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics. Anyways, it was apparently part of a bedroom set in the 80's. Pretty rad, I think :D .

Nice pick up! I saw that at D.I. a couple days ago too and thought the artwork was pretty cool. I decided to pass on it, but did find a copy of Yoshi's Island for $3 which I was happy about because I've never played it.

This is from the Provo D.I. in fact! That's where the pictured Virtual Boy came from too. That was a great way to spend 7 USD :mrgreen: !

@8-Bit Legend: That would be the most amazing find ever. Sadly, no :) .

Nice on the virtual boy too! I live right next to the Provo D.I. and try to stop by at least once or twice a week. :)
