Jesus christ! Find of the lifetime..for me anyway
« on: January 28, 2012, 06:34:06 AM »
Swapmeet dude had a bunch of ac adaptors for sale. Then on the table in the back i see it. A pc engine duo, black as shit no scratches looks brand new. I ask how much he puts up 5 fingers. I assume he means 50 but i wasn't sure. I ask one more time, how much sir? He says 5 dollars! I grabed that mofo so fast it'd knock your cock stiff. No cables or ac *funny you'd assume a dude selling nothing but ac adaptors would have the damn ac adaptor for the thing*

so 5 bucks today got me a pc engine duo. Now i just gotta find the inputs controller and all that stuff. Which is actually why im here. Anyone know where i could get this tuff cheap? And does any other ac adaptor work for it? I got a turbo grafx, and basically every other us system out there. Figure something would work but don't wanna fry it. Any help i could ge twould be great. Thanks guys.

Oh shit...  lol.   http://www.retrogamecave.com/  Sorry.  Oh, and VERY nice find on the system.

If something is wrong with it, most likely it can be fixed by someone here.

Correct.  But those same peeps here that can repair the Duo if it has issues, can also region mod it so it will play USA Hucards as well.  )

f*ck yeah!  usually I'd be jelous or something, but instead I'm actually pleased.

I still kind of hate the guy that got an LT for $5 though.
