    My SNES Mini shipped out yesterday! :smile:

    I had a backup one ordered from the UK, just in case I couldn’t get a US preorder. After I got the shipping notification I decided that I’d cancel that order today, but before I could it shipped out too. O_O

    I guess I’m getting both styles of SNES.

    Haven’t been on here much lately, but then I haven’t really been finding much game-related stuff lately. However….

    Earlier today I made a second trip to the local thrift store after finishing up a trip to the store and found this set:

    This includes two Game Gears (both need work), a single case, an original Game Gear manual, two manuals for games, a link cable and the following games:

    -two Sonic 2
    -two Columns
    -two Batter Up baseball
    -Joe Montana Football
    -Pokerface Paul’s Solitaire (catchy)
    -Super Monaco GP
    -Road Rash
    -Scratch Golf
    -Choplifter III
    -Greendog: The Beached Surfer Dude (weird)

    Like I said, the Game Gears appear to need work (most likely need some capacitor work) but for $7.99 for the whole mess, I don’t feel badly about that.

    It’s rare for me to see these deals at the thrifts nowadays, so I have to get ’em when I can.

    Hey! :smile:

    Good to hear from you. When you merged did you have to do a dance like with fusion?
