What you meant to say, is the cheap adapters just convert the plug type; they don't regulate the voltage at all. You would need something to step up, or step down the voltage, depnding on if you're trying to run a Jap device on the US's 115Volts, or a US device on Japan's 230volts.
Mostly yesterday which I'm catching up on. Today's trade-ins were pretty "blah". In fact, I think the only distinguishing feature of the day was that it may have been the day that the most people tried trading in broken stuff. Seemed like none of the systems we tested worked, and customers walked out with the same junk they walked in with.
PS3 40 GB System (loose) - Complete except for the packaging, in excellent condition.
GameCube Pikmin 2 (complete)
PS1 40 Winks (complete) - It's not an expensive game but we don't get it in very often.
PS1 Klonoa: Door to Phantomile (complete) - One of the "quietest" rarities on the PS1, great condition.
PS1 Tomba! (complete) - I believe more rare than Tomba 2, which I wouldn't have believed BEFORE I opened the store.
japanese voltage is 100 volts 230 is europe.
For lucky best wash, use Mr. Sparkle.

Though sales have been stellar (I don't know what it is about August here, but this is the third time it's clearly going to be the second best month of the year in overall sales). Yet, trade-ins over the past few days have been pretty boring. "Decent" stuff but nothing I haven't mentioned here many times. Rather than let a full week pass by I thought I'd post today's trade-ins, indicative of the week's mediocre stuff overall.
SNES Mario Kart (loose)
SNES Mortal Kombat 3 (loose)
NES Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (loose)
NES Contra (loose)
NES Super C (loose)
Saturn Fighting Vipers (complete)
Not too exciting ... and this is a Saturday!
Contra!
CONTrAAAAAAAaaa~
And Mario Kart...a game I should've picked up for $4 when I had the chance.

A little catching up, as I was away on holiday with Mrs. digitalpress for 4 days. We don't get out much.
PS2 Shadow Hearts (complete) - Not entirely sure why this belongs on an "interesting" list, but one of my guys at the store thinks so. That's enough for me.
PS1 Parasite Eve
PS1 Parasite Eve 2 (complete) - The first is a common request. The second is the game that a lot of people buy and learn as the rest of us did initially that it's not very much like the first.
Sega Master System Buster Douglas Boxing (complete) - Are we about to find out that this game isn't as rare as legend has it? Two of 'em in a month. There are still some Master System games that have NEVER been traded in. One should wonder...
TG-16/Duo Bonk 3 CD (complete) - Big time collectible!
PS1 Castlevania Symphony of the Night (complete) - Huzzah for black label oritinal versions, eh?
Virtual Boy System (loose) - In superb condition and working order, this will be placed into one of several "orphan" game packages (box/internals/packing) to make a complete set.
Nice trade-ins....been looking for Shadow Hearts for a friend for a while. It's pretty damned good, Joe.

Wow, Bonk 3 is a nice rarity to have traded in. Its my least favorite of the series, but a title thats rarely seen, even on ebay.A little catching up, as I was away on holiday with Mrs. digitalpress for 4 days

There was some DS game mentioned that I wrote down too hastily to be able to read back. Looks like something with SMB (Super Mario Bros?) and boxed. When I write fast I can't read it back for shit and that's happened more than I care to admit in this thread
Man Joe I wish finds were that good around here now but there's no store for 60 or so miles of me that is specifically video games now, too bad too.
If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?

Ooooh ...
Anybody up for some 4-player SNES Saturday Night Slam Masters + Multi Tap action at the next NAVA??
Anybody have an SNES multitap that they can bring?

I have that same problem. I've learned to deal with it by printing absolutely everything. Aside from my own signature, I've actually forgotten how to write certain letters in cursive.When I write fast I can't read it back for shit and that's happened more than I care to admit in this thread
I don't have one but my friend Tim does. I doubt he'd have a problem letting us use it.
If we ever do multitap games I'd love to set up a Bomberman or some 8 player Lords of Lunar. You know that Warlords knockoff on the 'Making Of' disc for Lunar: SSSC? I have the game and two Playstation multitaps waiting to get some more mileage.

I can bring my copy, the trade-in just reminded me about how great it was.

Yesterday:
PS1 Final Fantasy VII (black label, complete) - You know the way I feel about this game. At one time I had four of them in the store. A few days later everyone is looking for it, and they're all gone. I cannot stress the importance of the presence of this game in any decent game store!
NES Game Collection (loose) - A small pile of loose games. Notables included Donkey Kong Classics, Contra, and Little Ninja Bros.
360 Mercenaries 2 (complete) - First time traded in, the game's a week old. Usually I grab these to try 'em out first but a customer grabbed this one first.
Today:
NES Deluxe Set (complete) - Whoa, this is the huge box with ROB and Zapper and two controllers and Gyromite and Duck Hunt. The contents were in very good condition, ROB looks like he's never even been used. Documentation was all present. The NES needed pins, that's already taken care of, it's out on the floor.
NES Game Collection (complete) - We got about 10 loose and 25 complete NES games with the system above. The better of the boxed games included Metal Gear Solid, Donkey Kong Classics (two days in a row!), Joe & Mac, Burgertime, and Ikari Warriors
NES Dragon Warrior Nintendo Power Extras - I'm not sure of the scarcity or value of this, nor will I need to since this went right into my personal collection, but apparentlyl Nintendo Power offered some extra stuff with Dragon Warrior. There's a little letter explaining what you got, which included an Explorer's Handbook (a nice thick booklet with maps), an Adventure Guide (a laminated card with info on each character level), and two full-sized posters which also include various game information.
Mercenaries 2 isn't even 5 days old.
That's replay for you.Mercenaries 2 isn't even 5 days old.
"You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world."
WEIRD day. A Saturday, usually the busiest day of the week, but it was pretty quiet today. Why? Because a fucking hurricane ripped through the area and access to the store was blocked off from the east side. Somehow the day didn't end up too bad sales-wise. And halfway through, I set up Rock Band and hung out with Raj, Maryah and Frankie "playing"... just the thing most people think game store people do but which in fact so rarely happens. It happens once every hurricane or so.
So trade-ins were pretty sparse, yet we did score:
NES Action Set (complete) - This was a completely immaculate set, including the original box and documentation. When the night was over I couldn't find it though, I think my peeps put things away a little too efficiently sometimes. But you may see this in the store tomorrow.
Genesis System Altered Beast Launch Set (complete) - I believe this is the first time that this particular set has ever been traded in. I may use the box as our display case "filler". This is the same one I have at home. The one I bought when the system first launched. Way cool though not particularly rare or valuable - at least for now!
