Two SNES games arrived today, both bargain buy it now's, used to play Arkanoid in a local chipper when I was younger, I was terrible at it.

The next photo's show a cart widening I had completed with replacement perspex panel to keep the dust out, I had a spare top half of a snes with a slightly yellowed front panel so used that one for the windening and kept my mint one in case I ever need to return it to original condition.

Along with the switchless mod a mate installed I can now enjoy all my games without one of those annoying adapters, if anyone is interested it was Retromodsltd who carried out the widening, which imo looks extremely well done and clean.

TMNT Time!

Nice haul guys. Went to a car boot on Sunday, quite a big one - not much around, missed out on a nice mint boxed PS1. Picked up a few Gameboy games for £1 each and a Pacman handheld lcd for £1.

Star of the show had to be a 'Power of the Force' (1995) Millenium Falcon for £8 though.

Did see a battered Nes with a few games for £65, lol.

That's probably the bargain of the millennium really! BFD is £40 as a cart (as pointed out already) both the zeldas are amazing games, battle for naboo is pretty good and you have most the other essentials (though is the one above perfect dark a batman game that I don't remember??)

Either way get an expansion pack for a couple of quid of ebay as majors mask and donkey kong it's essential for, perfect dark and battle for naboo are pretty much unplayable without one ;)
 
snes came today, its a limited edition cappuccino snes :P , i won this last week then i won another one on ebay with super wild card :/ i cant help myself with this ebay on my phone

+1

I got quite a few of my games in bundles which after selling off the unwanted stuff meant the ones I kept were technically free or a few pounds, just got to be sensible.
