Just picked up 2 NES systems with power adaper and RF switch for each, 2 contollers, zapper and Super Mario 1,2,3 carts. One of the consoles works perfect like brand new. I can barely get the games out because it's so new. They don't rattle or anything and it works every time.

The second console blinks so I'm going to take it apart and clean the connectors.

Genesis Model 2 with 2 controllers, 2 power cords (they had an extra one for some reason), Sonic 2 and Columns III (CIB) cart only: NHLPA Hockey '93 (2 copies), Mercs, NBA Action '95, Ex Mutants

SNES console only yellowed on top but working

Astal for Sega Saturn Complete!! I've wanted this one for a while.

Total was $40. Only plan on keeping Astal the rest will be resold.

If it makes you feel any better, the green, blue, red, pink, and anniversary units are not yet in my possession :P Got a few coming from Europe, 1 from Australia, and another on it's way from a few states over ;D

Oh, and I'm waiting on the custom faceplate for the orange one still.

So I basically have a silver, black, and orange minus the faceplate on hand.

Also, picked up a 27" Trinitron for 20 bucks. Craigslist find. I actually have the exact same TV in my bedroom, but I think I'm gonna grab a cheap LCD and swap it out since the wife is the only one who ever uses it, and even then it's only to put a movie on to fall asleep to. So, my plan is dual 27" setup in the dork cave for light gun games. Don't know if that sort of thing works or not, but I'm gonna buy a few RCA splitters and have them back-to-back and see if I can't get some sweet 2 player action going on the classic consoles.

Anyone here ever try something like that? If so, any luck, or am I wasting my time?

My Dad scored me the Darksiders Poster things from around the XBOX 360 displays in Wal-Mart. The full sized LARGE (Almost door size), the small under the TV 16" tall poster and the 3 border panels.

Only found a spot for a border panel right now....my wife suggested I put the poster up in the bedroom....heh...she suggested it...I might have to take her up on it as I am pretty low on wall space.

That is still pretty sweet. Hope you didn't break the bank them. I'm having the hardest time getting ahold of a micro in AR. I refuse to pay online prices for one :/

Blueprint:
Be Patient and check Ebay frequently and you can get a good deal... I seen then for as low as $40.
