Thrift Store Finds/General Thread - Post your recent finds, things

I found a broken ps2.

I have way too many of those floppy vaults bought because they had games. I think FDEs are going to make loose disk games pretty worthless sadly.

I bought my first retro console (NES) about a week ago and now I have already like 10 games for it! Maybe I should slow down now. :P

Latest game I bought was pic related ($16 or 14€). I ordered it from USA via eBay (I live in Finland). I was surprised that it was quite the same price as ordered from Europe -if not cheaper! Also I haven't seen any copies at local sellers...?

I also bought Jak X for ps2 (3€ or $3). I've never played NES before (I'm 23 and earliest I remember is SNES) but Jak X is real nostalgia trip for me -well if you count 2005 'nostalgia'...

Awesome! Any idea if it can be fixed??

I bought an NES last week with a cheap copy of Pinball. It barely worked at all, so I boiled the pin connector and it worked immediately. I ordered DKClassics and Mario Bros. 1983, so I'm starting a small collection

Get a light gun zapper for that NES and try shooting stuff. Also go get Solar Jetman and Totally Rad right now.

Never heard of that, sounds dicey, but glad it works lmao.

Anyone lives in the Charlotte, NC area?

IIRC Charlotte has a huge Goodwill Computer Works which is one of the places all the regular Goodwills send their vidya to be marked up but if you live nearby it would be a good place to regularly check for mispriced or marked down stuff.

Wish we had that in Canada... have to rely on e-cycle places instead.

Pic fucking related, 5000$ for an Apple II...

Real nice service to the community.

Have you tested those floppies to make sure the data is still good? I bought pirates of realmspace complete with box and manual years ago, and the data was already corrupted. Eye of the Beholder 3 thought that I got at the same time still worked.

Waiting on a drive, hopefully nothing critical (ie. some of the local stuff) is bunk. Otherwise, if it's all trash, I'm out 14$... which I can get back selling the floppies, idek.
