Well, after all this time of looking at overpriced nes systems and passing them up. I walked into a thrift store and in a bag was the following.

1. NES
1. Controller
2. RF. Adaptors
1. Power Supply
1. Microphone (Don't even go to anything)

All for just $5.00. Appears to be the original 1985 model. At least the copyright says so. The controller is a later revision. I also spoted some additional controllers at another thrift store. I'll be going back to pick those up. I'll take the extra one after testing them and convert it to a atari 7800. I still need to find a game to test it with too. Hopefully all will turn out okay.

Later,

Josh

Pretty good. My best NES score was an NES, power pad, orange gun, rad racer 2, power plug, and RF switch for $10, and a TV to go with it all for $12. The Goodwill in Youngstown, OH was having a half-price sale, like they do on the last Friday of every month. Hell, most Goodwill stores in Northeast Ohio do that. Find something on Wednesday, hide it for Friday. I hid my NES under a stack of C64 printer paper. Hahaha...
