Title: NES Wonder :-) Post by: BigJim on December 23, 2007, 04:30:37 PM My company recently shut on of their regional offices,
I went down there to make sure everything had been cleaned out and in the corner i spotted a dusty old box, Upon looking inside was this lovley collection (see pictures) Mind you the state the poor old thing was in - I almost did not recognise it, Got it home and gave it a nice bath and hey presto - as good a new :-) Spent the afternoon playing Mario Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: BigJim on December 23, 2007, 04:33:12 PM second pic

Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: bum-man on December 23, 2007, 09:21:05 PM Looks like it says "NES Version", interesting I've never seen one like that before.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Izret101 on December 23, 2007, 10:51:13 PM Very interesting NES indeed...
That requires some research! Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Tondog on December 24, 2007, 12:33:34 AM Yeah, I'm wondering about that too. I've never seen that before.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Izret101 on December 24, 2007, 12:43:48 AM Well so far al of us are americans and BigJim if memory serves is a Brit.
Maybe it is some Euro variant? Yeah he is a Londonian i checked his profile. Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: BadEnoughDude on December 24, 2007, 01:16:40 AM I thought it looked like "NES version" too. Definitely not something I am familiar with.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: James on December 24, 2007, 02:49:47 AM It says "NES Version" on my NES. Must be a European/British thing.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: BigJim on December 24, 2007, 03:43:18 AM I think, and correct me if I am wrong on this, but at the time there was 3rd party companies making copies of Nes for those poorer folk who could not afford the real thing, NES version symbolises a generation of NES that was brought out during that time,
some of you may of come across the copy cartridges over the years, I think I have a few at home somewhere Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: den68 on December 24, 2007, 07:21:34 AM Not something you'd expect to find in an office. Nice find.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: James on December 24, 2007, 07:27:52 AM Not something you'd expect to find in an office. Nice find. At my dad's old job they were clearing out the office and they found a unicycle behind a cupboard. :laugh: So now I have a unicycle. Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Ghost Soldier on December 24, 2007, 01:33:10 PM I'd love to find something like that clearing out an office.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: littlenick on January 08, 2008, 03:15:54 AM I'd love that Advantage! It would be so much better playing any NES game with that.
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Tan on January 08, 2008, 06:55:56 AM I'd love that Advantage! It would be so much better playing any NES game with that. Built like a tank too. I've never seen a broken or loose working one no matter how badly abused it was. Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: NESman93 on January 23, 2008, 08:53:48 PM Ah! DK Classics one of my favorites!
Title: Re: NES Wonder :-) Post by: Tynstar on February 01, 2008, 12:31:52 PM Thats awesome! nice find.
