Today at a nearby thrift store, Sega dreamcast w power plug, av plug, control w memory card, and world series baseball 2k1 - $6.98 Keith Courage Turbo Grafx16 Huecard w case $.99 Star Wars demolition PSX $.99

Great! much appreciated.

I found a 2600 jr last week, no power supply. Can I use my regular 2600 power supply with the jr? Just want to confirm this so I don't damage anything.

Today I found, 3DO FZ 10 console $6.98 Naki Pro Player Arcade joystick boxed for genesis or snes $.99 NES Bubble Bobble $2.98 NES Classic Concentration $2.98

Went to my fav thrift today. Found Mary Kate and Ashley Magical Mystery Mall for playstation 1.99 Also there was a 2600 jr with a shoebox full of 2600 carts 40.99 a bit high but it looked like there was some rare ones in there Hopefully I can get the cash together to get it tonight.

The system is showing the 3DO emblem on screen after power up. I found a message from back in 1995 on the 3DO newsgroup about a problem similar to the one I'm having. So far it's all I have to go on. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.v...4f13dad64fd0407

Nope, no spin sound at all. When I insert a disc the green access light comes on, but after that the screen stays black. So, I guess it's the disc drive. Well, anyone know if it's an easy fix, or worth trying to fix at all:? I'll need some more knowledge before I open this FZ 1.

I just got a 3DO FZ 1 for 19.99 at a thrift store. When I turn it on it powers up, but when I insert a disc it does'nt load. Screen stays black. Anyone know of any common issues, or any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

I'd be intersted in it's value as well. I found one last summer still sealed from 1978.

Sorry, I had it wrong. It's only the swap trick.

I have heard that it is possible to play ps2 backups with a soft mod with boot from a ps2 memory card, or something like that. Anybody doing this or know anything about this:?

Yesterday: NES with 2 controls no power supply and copy of Cliffhanger $7.99 NES carts $1.99 each: Donkey Kong 3 Super Mario Bros 3 Double Dragon Ghostbusters Today: SNES carts $3.98 each: SOS PGA Tour Golf

Found some 3DO games today. 99 cents each. The boxed ones were sealed 1.98 each. There's some cool looking japanese titles in there too. I was'nt having any luck trying to run backup cd-rs on my 3DO FZ-10, so I'm glad I finally came across some originals.

I started collecting records from thrifts, flea markets, and garage sales in the early 90's and from then til now I've definetly seen less and less good vinyl available. Those big boxes of goodies has turned into a few goodies here and ther. Plus you need to be very persistent to find good stuff. Since I was finding less recods around I happened to get into this videogame collecting thing about a year and a half ago. The records were'nt around, but the retro gaming stuff was. But, just in the past year since I've been thrifting the workers get to know a regular and they know what you're after. I just saw a 2600 with power supply paddle and joysticks going for $35, when just a few months earlier I got one from the same place and in better condition for $10. If I do find a cool cartridge it will be like $5.99 for somthing common. They are jacking up the prices on anything videogame related now.
