I said in another thread that my NES would not work as the 72 pin was broken. Well, today my mom and I went out and about and stopped at an eBay store (ironically, a couple of my friends work there). I saw a couple NESes there and bought one (just the counsol) for about $30. I tested it to see if it would work.
It didn't. So, with some oil and compressed air that my dad has, I cleaned and oiled the system's inside.
Works like a charm! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif I am so happy!

What do you have to play on the little system with the standard controllers that hurt your hands like the dickens?

yeah, i was just kinda boggled by the amount of games he's had, can't bother to seperate the list in my head. Tis a good example of why I normally do quote responses, look what happens when I don't http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

But there was a more than adequate chance everyone in a videogame listing thread on a vid game forum would have a billion games on a list.

Tanooki suit!

Edited out the redundancy! Not to mention vid game forum after saying vid game forum. WTFUX

I have emulators, but it is more rewarding to play on the real thing.
I would like to get:
Donkey Kong
Final Fantasy
Maybe some of the Megamen
Metroid
Galaga
Gauntlet
Pac Man
Tetris
Bomberman
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2
Duck Hunt

You got it dude.

The dang blasted game tapes will always exist out there for you to go hunt down.

And even if you think you'd alrady seen it all with everyone one-upping eachother on how many they do have in extravagance, there's always a news story of an eBay auction of like a massive game collection for like $12k B.I.N.

I actually may be working for that eBay store, too. My friends said they'd put a good word in for me. I just have to work one day every other weekend.

http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif Well, we'll see. I need a job first, then I can make an eBay/Paypal account. Then I can buy games with the money I get from my job.

That reply was seconds later than yours, or possibly earlier, the forum handles that weird.

And it was meant for the sord's post, but best of luck to work at that eBay store all the same Alex.

http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif I am good at lifting, hauling, and organizing things, so it should be easy. And one of my friends says that we can even fool around with/wear some of the merchandise.

if it breaks, blame it on the guy who pawned it in? http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

I don't know.
I guess the topic is a double Huzzah! Me getting a working NES and possibly getting a job. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

GAH! Dammit! Now why is it not working!? It was fine a couple hours ago!

I just oiled and aired it again.

Edit: NOW it works. I'm going to give it an hour and wait and see. Maybe it was because the oil dried up or something like that.

That's failing more then the 360.

Well, while it was capable of play, I played some Zelda. AoL has some graphical glitches, but I think they'll work themselves out.
