So, yesterday Christmas came early, my best friend brought me the greatest gift I've got in years:

Complete with 2 controllers, Light Gun and two MarioBros/DuckHunt carts.

I couldn't be happier. I just needed to clean up the cartridges and the gamepads with a little alcohol and a q-tip, fix the 72 pin connector by bending the pins back in place, and it's now working perfectly like it's 1986.

Now to save up a little money to buy a few cartridges. Or, if I'm lucky, get them cheap at the local flea market.

Cuttlefish is a good friend. That's why I'm getting him SF2T for the SNES plus another controller. :)

...That is, if the postal service works. I was supposed to receive the packages several days ago.
