I feel guilty for being most impressed by your Aeroplane Flies High boxset

[egparadigm]

I had a similar problem with a brand new one that had been sitting in the box for the last twelve years or so. If the power light works, then leave it plugged in and running and watch regular TV. Reset it every hour, sometimes it magically comes back to life.

Yeah, sadly I don't even get the light.

Hopefully I'll be able to get a new fuse and multi-metre and test it out by the end of the week.

Someone on another forum said the same thing!

Hehe.

I have an extensive Foo Fighters, Pumpkins and RHCP cd and vinyl collection too.

Some goodies from my last boot sales of the year; will be back off to uni this week. I am also hitting the point where I am going to get more storage space for things and don't have the time to play everything I want to.... Anyway:


Some N64 goodness. Console has all the baggies


And some more retro and not so retro goodness.

^ Thats a nice little N64 lot with a nice assortment of games - how much did that set you back?

I VERY rarely see any N64 gear at car boots, yesterday was the first time in months and the joker wanting 5 quid EACH for a goldeneye and legend of zelda cart!

Heres my best find of the weekend - unboxed mario bros game and watch for 2 pounds




As you can there is quite a large scratch on the front but the screens are in pretty decent condition

I spent £35 on N64 stuff over the weekend. I got some on the Saturday and some on the Sunday. I picked up another boxed console in one of the lots but I only took a pic of the best one. The fact it was all boxed and in decent condition is why I took it all; it's nice to find stuff like this in decent condition.
I bumped into the usual jokers though - an N64 with 2 games for £40. Sure, one was Pokemon Stadium 2 but it was hardly in good nick and £40 is a vast overpricing.
I will probably have to start collection N64 games now lol

Bargain! Car boot?

I used to have that Game and Watch as a kid, and I once had an awesome dream that it was a magical device that enabled me to fly.

Bargain! Car boot?

Yeah. I think it had been on the table a while actually as all the traders looked too busy fighting over the generic ps2 games in the cars pulling up to notice

It didn't stop one of them offering me a tenner for it afterwards though

Good to see you find your first Game & Watch Ant! Good price for it 'n all!
However will it be a resale item or one for yourself?

Having never played a Game and Watch I have no idea what it will be like to play so i'm not sure!

So first of all, I need some batteries to get it working so I can have a go
