    Default Oddest thing you've found inside a videogame system...

    I just opened up an NES console to find the innards covered in rice and soy sauce.

    Yup, when I bought an NES from Gamestop about 4 months ago, I found a little over a dimebag. It was shitty weed though. :/

    Found a condom once in my friend's NES, hidden behind that pop-off plastic piece on the bottom.

    I've heard a lot more stories about weed being found inside folded up Power Pad's. It's not like somebody would actually want to use it for games or anything. I suppose inside the system is a good spot as well.

    I got a heavy sixer in the mail, covered in what looked like dirt. I opened it up to find a strange substance similar to that kind of beef jerky that comes in tobacco-like containers. I'm sure somebody knows what I'm talking about. Anyway, that's defintely not something I expected to find in a game console.

    Also, I used to work at a Gamestop. I had to buy back an N64 one time, and it was almost a golden color due to the sick amount of dirt. I opened the flap on the bottom to see if crap was in there, and sure enough, a ton of insects fell out. Very very disgusting. The manager actually made me buy it back too, because he knew the guy or something. After the guy left, he told me to put in the back with the defective stuff. There's good old Gamestop for ya.

    I found sun flower seeds in one and of course the monster sized dust balls. In one SNES I bought (which was filthy!), most of the inside was covered in pop. Sure glad I had a can of electronics equipment cleaner to spray on the board to get the sticky crap off!

    I was taking apart an old generic non-working pong system the other day. I was going to recycle the pots and switches and hardware and stuff for use in other projects. All of the sudden I smelled a strong odor of B.O. (classic body odor smell) on my hands. It was coming from the console...I gagged a couple times and in the garbage it went. Nasty!

    So I guess you could say I found some dormant body odor.
