was delivering mail today and walked up on a box of games just sitting on a porch . 6 common 2600. barnstorming, fishing derby, pitfall etc...
but on top was a Donkey Kong Jr tabletop. in really good condition with stickers and all. only thing is i cant get it to work. i put in new batteries and it doesn't work. i thought these things had on/off switches on em. any suggestions. im hoping it could be something simple i could tinker with. like a lightbulb or something. i really dont want to take it apart cause i wouldn't know what i was looking at anyway. oh well it looks so nice it just may end up on the shelf anyway.

:D so happy now. got the tabletop working. this thing rocks and i dont even like Jr, it's in near mint condition. this will be a focal point in my gameroom now. all i had to do is clean the contacts (duh). i waited all day to get that home to put in some batteries. so bummed when it didn't work at first, now i'm like @_@ must thank the elder woman for leaving games on the porch while i deliver mail. (i paid her guys and gals)
