CAGiversary!
Walking around this gross little thrift store today, I felt this odd twinge of sorrow upon seeing how lonely and depressing everyday items can look after they've been discarded and assembled in one place. Especially video game items. I dunno, I guess it's the fact that these consoles and games were designed soley for fun, and now they look so sick and beat up. Kind of like the "Isle of Misfit Toys." I guess that's one thing I like about rescuing them from despairity when I have use for them, and give them new leases on life.
Anyway, it's sort of hard to explain, but it occurred to me to get this pics with my cell phone to try to convey the feeling. I might post more to this thread in the future. Feel free to do the same if you have any humorous/interesting stories from dark, dusty thrifts near you.
Here are the games. Tons of Genesis and NES stuff. Most marked $4.99.
Here we have a SNES trying to mate with a Dreamcast, an N64 trying to mate with a Saturn, two Genesises trying to mate with each other and a Genisis trying to make do by itself.
None of the consoles have hook-ups with them. If you want to get them, they're priced seperately and kept... here.
I did pick up something kind of cool, though. I'm not sure what it is exactly, but I know it's supposed to copy SNES games. It was $2.99.
