Author Topic: Busted Super System Card ... What to do? (Read 367 times)

Okay, time to get creative here... I have a Super System card that basically no longer works. I suspect that the RAM inside of it has gone bad since it works fine as a "CD System Card" but using it as a Super System Card does not work.

So what to do with it?

If I had a pair of them, my wife would be sporting the coolest earrings on this side of the Mississippi. But, alas, I have only one, and making a necklace pendant out of it is just not the same.

I was considering taking a heat gun to it, and molding it to my car's back bumper, then attaching it as some sort of coolish bumper sticker. But it would be too small to be seen by anyone unless you had hit me (no thanks).

So, what ideas do you have on how I can display the Super System card in homage for the world to see.. . .by using a real (albeit defunct) Super System Card?

Put in your wallet with all your pictures. =)

Tape a string to the top of it and hang it from your rearview mirror.

I had a TG16 contoller hanging from my mirror for a while. i got some interested looks about it

I distribute URLs and passwords for family photos now-a-days. in fact, I do not have any photos in my wallet. =)

And it is also illegal (in most states) to hang things from your rear view mirror. Not that anyone enforces it.. .but if it were not illegal, that would certainly be a stroing contender.

Put it in your wallet with all of your credit cards. When the time comes to take the credit card out take the Super System card out and say, "Woops, wrong card!" I just had to say that.

Hell... frame it and hang in on your wall.. like its a CD signed by a rockstar or something.

Other 'terrible' uses could be

Paperweight
Coaster
Bookmark
Something to throw when you get mad =P
Put it in the microwave?

...Ok, now im just getting silly.

Glue it to the front of a baseball cap.

I can't believe nobody said this:

BELT BUCKLE !!!

But that's pretty geeky because you'd be sporting a huge (by my standards) belt buckle.

Gluing it on a hat / car are great ideas that folks have already mentioned.

So is drilling a hole in the corner of the HuCard and using it as a keychain -- that's the most pracitical idea I've heard, but the HuCard is too big. Maybe you could do this for a set of keys that you don't shove into your pockets all the time. Or you could...

FRAME IT & GIVE IT TO A FELLOW FAN AS A GIFT

Glue it on top of a DS Lite

Expose it to direct sunlight, bend it and then drop it into a bucket of water.

Dunno how feasible it is but back in days there was mini calculator in exact size and shape of the hu card.
Could it be possible to convert it into something similar - though I'm talking about the some major hu card housing mod that may involves the poly-putty and other materials...
