There was an ad in my local classifieds for 5 gamecube games for $20. I jumped all over it.



When I got there to pick them up I asked the guy if he had anything else for sale.

He was like "oh yea! I got a N64 (nothing special so i didnt grab it) And these"





Paid $5 a piece for the controllers. They appear to be factory sealed, they have the "H" seam, but since these are my first factory sealed thing if come across I am  not sure if its just a reseal.

WOW!  And those are the far rarer SNES mini controllers with the molded in logo. not the screened version :o

Great find!


I was looking into these at one point. I'm pretty sure there's unofficial drivers floating around.

Of course, if you just want to transfer the saves to your PC and vice-versa, there's always the long way of:
Memory card -> PS3 -> USB Drive -> PC
and
PC -> USB Drive -> PS3 -> Memory Card

I wasn't able to find anything for this.  Everything I read said to just get a "Shark Port" if that's what you want to do.

So I sold the boxed copy of Aero Fighters I found last month on eBay... and this is what I got with the money I made on it.



Everything is CIB except Blood Will Tell... so, more or less, this all cost me $18.

You might need to find a driver or some software to use it.

You may also want to cover up some of those phone numbers.  :(
Well those phone numbers are kind of worthless unless you smell a gas leak in this area. Lol. But I will make sure next time to cover them up.
Unfortunately, wiggy and I have been talking and haven't found a solution.  Which leads to this....

They're $15 shipped on eBay. Just suck it up and buy one. That's what I ended up doing ;)

That's all for this month so far, got some goodies last month but never got around to posting. Oh well :P Christmas is around the corner for many of us so it won't be long before this thread is flooded I imagine.

- Got a nice little score for 25 bucks at the swap meet. I asked about nes and the vendor brought out a box. I helped him lay the games all out. He initially wanted 5 a piece, but just gave me some dupes, for free, since I helped out. I was most excited for the Zelda, Guardian Legend and TMNT. The other 5 were just a bonus. The Gyromite is a 5 screw and a Famicom converter. I also picked up a dremel for 10 bucks to help trim up the universal game cases. I have to get my new additions boxed.

Don't know if this helps:

Haven't tried it so not sure, just googled ps3 ps2 memory card reader driver and that came up on the second site.

Bought this when the PS3 first came out, and just recently bought (about 6 months ago) 2 more at 'Toys 'R Us' for $2 each on clearance =D

Oh lordy, the Wii-U has changed my life in so many ways... The gamepad is now my TV remote, as well as my all-in-one gaming center. 0_0
