Look what I found inside an old white pc engine
« on: April 08, 2012, 09:15:53 PM »
I want to show everyone what I found inside an old white pc engine system recently. Turns out someone altered the RF port by putting in a NES board of some sort. This thing now works on channel 3 instead of 96 or whatever number a pce runs on.

This PCE must have been imported a long time ago.  :shock:

Yeah, it is really old. The IDE type cables inside had started to fall apart.

Does anyone have a picture from the original auction? I still have a picture in my brain, but, DAMN, how could we be so silly as to not save the actual photo?

That reminds me of when I was at a Hard Off thrift store in Yamaguchi City (of all places) and I found a white multitap that had Tengai Makyou stickers on it. It had a 'well-loved' feel to it, and I thought it was cool. Just looking at it somehow reminded me of what it was like to be a kid again. I was gonna buy it, but I was with my girlfriend and she said it was ugly and begged me not to buy it. Eventually I gave in and bought another cleaner one that didn't have stickers on it. Now I've broken up with her and I still have the plain white tap instead of the dirty one with stickers on it that I really wanted. Hardware tends to last longer than girlfriends. I'll try to remember that next time (and not be a f@cking mangina).

Great anecdote!

Think of it this way: now you have a mission to find the impossible...a well-worn, well-loved, 85% new multitap.

Man, I had a couple white PCEs that looked like that multi-tap... Sometimes you wonder what kind of abuse people inflict on their poor little video game consoles. The crazy thing is that they still all work perfectly though! Couldn't say that about a Playstation/Xbox. Sneeze on one of those things and they break.
