They just don't pop up much at all in my area. Could've just bought one at any point off ebay, but where's the fun in that Contra, or a nomad?

a3quit4s | 4,103 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Quick local pickup, I’m in the Nomad club now as well! $250 for all. Ordered a new LCD screen for it. Only the glass is cracked but I’m changing the screen and probably the caps too 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont charge through the nomad OEM ac adapter though, it draws too much. Got way hotter than I am comfortable with. You will need a universal lipo charger. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lazer bear pack, if I end up using it a lot I probably will grab it. Nice opening it up and finding the caps to be on great condition, saves about 2 hours there. Ordered up a new LCD screen and it’ll be all nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd go with a moderate upgrade, glass lens and remove that LCD for a composite one as they only cost like $30 give or take if you can wire it in yourself and it's a huge help. There is an $80 choice but it's like mobile phone level stuff and needs more work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didnt get those n64 games here but I remember playing Spiderman on ps1 and loving it. I have accepted that gameboy games have become stupid expensive cib so im going too pick up SCN games if I see nice carts. And that 4B-008 YAASSS!!! Rally Challenge 2000 is probably the best Rally game on N64, super under the radar, I love that game! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signs are getting pretty ridiculous these days man, I have 2 more display/sign deals on the table at the moment, and after that I don't know how I'll be able to continue collecting them lol.
