Rowsdower70 Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Snagged these from ShopGoodwill.com, just under $50 for all of it. Not a GREAT deal, but well worth stocking up for the next show. The handhelds are are SUPER clean.

jmjustin6 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Could someone help me. I just found this at goodwill. I saw the plug and thought for sure it would fit in the NES, but turn out it doesnt. Does anyone know what this controller goes to? Maybe a Retron system?

nosweargamer Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) Yobo, like Hyperkin (Retron), makes (or made, they may be out of business now. not sure) new, cheap systems that play NES and SNES games. I think yours may have come from this one. https://www.amazon.com/Yobo-Game-Loader-Console-White/dp/B000JPG87A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473721993&sr=8-1&keywords=yobo+nes Edited September 12, 2016 by nosweargamer Quote The No Swear Gamer on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChtJuo040EOCTVziObIgVcg Host of The Atari 7800 Game by Game Podcast on iTunes, Stitcher and YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 When i saw it i was hoping it was a turbo controller for the NES Oh well if anyone wants it its for trade and i wont be looking for much for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) Got me a boxed WII at goodwill today for $20. I got hope and opened it and it even had Jeopardy in it Edited September 21, 2016 by jmjustin6 RickR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted September 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Got me a boxed WII at goodwill today for $20. I got hope and opened it and it even had Jeopardy in it That looks really nice. Given that it's complete and there's still plastic bags and such, I'd assume this was barely used. Very nice find for a great price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) Yea and the wii sports is brand new. Tape still around it. Im thinking that this WII might have been miss priced. They had another boxed wii for $45 Edited September 21, 2016 by jmjustin6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted September 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I like to make up a story about things like this when I find them. I'll bet someone bought this for grandma. "She'll like Jeopardy, and it'll keep her active!" And then grandma never used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
