The other day I picked up on the NES a loose copy of Athena for $2. I like the old SNK stuff and will be giving this platformer a whirl later tonight and God does it look terrible. No wonder I haven't heard of this title let alone seen it much in the game stores, most likely went right to the trash after play.
Also I picked up a Kenwood KR-4600 receiver/tuner to replace a failing one I have, and this one works great. After looking it up there's a bit of hate for this unit because it's a lower end model and is apparently more common. Spent a few hours cleaning it while watching some TV as it's in wonderful shape, just dirty from use and sitting in someone's garage for many years. Ironically it's going to find a new home in the garage, but next to the arcade machines to pump out background 70's-90's music for the comforting sound and feeling of the arcade experience. I'll post a picture when I find & clear a spot for it out there.
Picture of it on in my room:
