I went hunting around at a couple Garage Sales this morning, including one which was reported to have huge bin of LEGO. Sadly, I got there too late and it was gone. I did, however, find a NES for $3, with two controllers and Tetris 2. It works fine, albeit Tetris 2 is a shitty game. I love my luck.

I went to 8 garage sales and no one had any LEGO. I was pissed!

I went to 4, but no luck. There's always next Saturday, I suppose.

Nice find, Bonn! Wish I had a $3 Nintendo that works... I mean, heck, they didn't work well when they were new. =/

I haven't had any troubles yet, and it's nice and somewhat shiny from my cleaning it.
EDIT to avoid double post: Woo hoo! Ninja Gaiden and Dragon Warrior!

Dragon Warrior is awesome. I'm getting IV, V, and VI when they come on the DS.

Same here. Dragon Warrior makes me laugh because it's all in Old English.

I have my grandma's old NES. I used to have two Atari 2600s, too, but my parents sold those and my 100 or so games for like $10 at a garage sale.
I cried.

Ouch, that sucks. Someone my boss knows bought an Atari and an assload of games off Ebay, and he's keeping them boxed up for a long time until they're (hopefully) worth a lot.

I would play it! I would long to have that little controller in my hand and play Breakout or Tennis or Adventure...
I bought the Atari Anthology for my XBox a while back, and I know you can play them all online, but it's just not the same.
I want the freakin' buzzy and *pshkshoooooo* noises of River Raid!

Haha! That's funny.
Well, when I was a little kid, we didn't have much money, so I just had hand-me-downs, and as all of my aunts and uncles had money, I got all of the older video game systems while my cousins got Segas, Dreamcasts, Gameboys, N64s, and Playstations.
I didn't mind.

this kind of thing only gets you positive attention when you're talking movie reviews.
