I just went to a flea market the other day, and the only NES games were a stack of sports titles in discolored carts, variations of the SMB/Duck Hunt/Track pack-in carts in poor, discolored shape, and discolored carts with almost no label on them to distinguish their title. It was a sad state of affairs at the Melrose Park Swap-o-Rama.Are flea markets a disappointment in general for finding nes games? I went to one today and found a copy of final fantasy for nes in good condition for 10 bucks from one seller. I ended up buying it because it seemed like a decent price for a game that was in such good condition.
This other seller though, had a lot of nes and snes games but they were in poor condition. The carts were dirty and had discoloration in most cases.Some of the labels were peeling off. I asked him if he had SMB 2 or Mike Tyson's Punch Out and he dug out several tubs from his van to find them for me but he wanted for 15 bucks Super Mario Bros 2 that was in poor condition. He ended up not having Mike Tyson, but he pulled out some boxes with super nintendo games so I asked if I could look through them. I was a little surprised when he told me no even though he had already gotten them out. I really wanted to just stand there and tell any potential customers that his games were in shit condition and they shouldn't buy them.
This other seller wanted 40 bucks for a loose copy of Super Mario Kart. The local used game shop in my town has it for 20 bucks. All in all it was a disappointing trip.
Dat Salamander cart. I went from six to midnight.A nice lil' famicom package arrived yesterday!

If someone can create a thread about the kickstarter that may help it get a few more pledges.

Is the top loader region free?
I have a cartridge of Legacy of the Wizard that I cant get to work after having cleaned it with alkohol. Does anybody have any tips on what to do next to get it to work?
Brasso? That works?Game bit screwdriver + brasso.
reproduction cart of airball came in the game is really good its like a lot harder version of solstice with just as good music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_AFPhWwFBA
Isnt Solstice hard as hell already though? Makes me think this game is night-on-impossible.
gameplay wise i dont find solstice to be that hard at all just a couple rooms that require some precise jumps where as airball has that but now you are on a timer you are constantly deflating and you have to find pump up stations to keep you alive
I'd suggest an art eraser over an abrasive like Brasso.
If you're going to use it, dab very little on, wait a few seconds, and wipe off slowly. Don't pile it on and don't keep rubbing vigorously until all the black residue is gone... that's the thin, gold layer protecting your actual contacts from corroding over time.
I'm not feeling that 'just as good music'. It's good, but still has has some of that that European developed 'grating/buzzsaw' instrument sound that I always think sounds awful. C64 fans always blow my mind thinking stuff like Last Ninja was anything near 'good' music, the instruments are awful.reproduction cart of airball came in the game is really good its like a lot harder version of solstice with just as good music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_AFPhWwFBA

So good. Original Famicom > all other NES variations.saw this on the Neo Geo CRT thread
what a match!
80s zenith apparentlynever even seen a CRT like that, but yeah, it's prolly the most fitting thing since that Space Channel 5 kiosk thing
Nope, I just don't know if it was a lucky find or not. The shop definitely had some over-priced goods, but I found some good PS1 games on the cheap, and they even had some incredible LaserDiscs (like Star Wars IV, V, and VI) for 200 yen each.That sounds to me like an incredible price no matter what. I mean, if you heard it typically goes for 100 yen... would you really feel buyers remorse over that little?
That brings back memories of seeing the price list at Funcoland in the 90s where those were the only games that cost over $50. I wasn't into J-RPGs, though, so I usually just ignored them.I'm so mad at myself for not buying the Dragon warrior/quest NES games a few years ago when I had the chance. They are so much more expensive now than they were 3-4 years ago.. Especially Dragon Warrior/Quest III and IV.
IV is like $70 minimum. Could of have it for like 20 just a few years ago
