    Default VERY Good Friday Finds!

    Had a day off yesterday, so I did the entire Milwaukee thrift and game store circuit and landed some very nice items.

    Miracle Piano Keyboard with NES Cable, power adaptor and the bottom half of the strofoam packing trays. It powered up and played fine...I just need to get the cart and foot pedal now. $9.99

    NES R.C. Pro Am Racing II $4.99
    NES Flintstones Resue at Dinosaur Peak $4.99
    My second Flintstones II cart in less than a month...this one had a perfect label though....the one with the damaged label is now up for trade.

    Boxed Mattel Soccer 2 handheld $2.99...I didn't even know there was a Soccer 2!

    PS2 Tetris Worlds $4.98 at Target. Picked up a few, so if you need one, let me know.

    Also got some game guides and 6 crappy Genesis sports titles I didn't have for next to nothing with the B2G1F sale at Gamestop.

    My basket's about full...hope you all have a good Easter!

    Things have been dry around here, but had some luck this afternoon. Stopped into a Goodwill and found a box full of SNES stuff. Three complete systems with all hooks-up, power supplies and controllers, in fact! No games, but I can get those anyplace. What did this haul cost me?

    $5 for it all.

    picked up a boxed U Force today for $2.50, didn't have the joysticks tho
    also a red gameboy for $4

    i was on my mail route and these people had the same stuff from last year, i picked the uforce up and it was marked $5, i didnt even say anything and the lady said 2.50 and u can have it. i asked if she had games and she said that she just sold a Nes and 12 games for $25. they didn't have any games last year, except a game gear and case and a few games. she did tell me that she has a load of games and systems still to get rid of. she said that she would drop me a line when she gets them ready

    I picked up Ikaruga for GC and found the following complete at Game Stop:

    Super Nintendo
    Super Punch-Out
    Donkey Kong Country
    F-Zero
    NBA Jam

    Genesis
    Altered Beast
    Terminator

    I bought an N64 from a guy, but I can't get it working. The red light comes on on the front, but no picture will appear on the screen. Nice sturdy controller, though. Any ideas?

    Also, is $15 too much for Super Punch-Out complete?
    Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.

    Try replacing the power supply. I've seen that before, and the PS was just below rating. Give it a go, especially if u can borrow another PS from a friend.

    Good Luck!
