Great Goodwill Find

I went out to a couple of Gooowill stores in my area that tend to yield great finds on a consistant basis. I walked over to the counter with most of the video game items and found a Sega Nomad! The Nomad looked pretty decent althought it was missing the battery pack, it did came bundled with two games; Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic Spinball. The best part of the whole deal.. $9.99 PRICE TAG! Got home, and it works great. Probably my finest Goodwill find to date.

**Edit-I also picked up a copy of Wrestlemania The Arcade Game for $3.99**

    Very nice score. I had a Nomad for a while and I loved it. The thing weighed a TON, so I got a workout while playing Sonic Spinball. Two birds with one stone baby!

    Awesome deal except on Wrestlemania. As fun as that game is, it's barely worth a buck CIB.

    I tried posting the pics twice and was unable to, so I just slapped it on as my avatar. I think I'll just leave that pic as my avatar since the Nomad is so over the top that it acutally makes it that much more awesome to me.

    **Apparently I can only see the pics when I am logged in under my username, so that my be the reason some of you could not see the pics**

    Thanks still can't believe I found it for the price I did. I'm now interested in the LCD mod but I have never done any soldering and I'm terrified of ruining it. From the videos and photos I've seen, its a vast improvement over the stock blurry one. Maybe I'll practice on some old broken electronic boards before I open the  Sega 'mad up.

    Damn, I just realized how old this thread is. Whoa, Dane's digging in the graveyard again. Pretty impressed that the OP responded back almost a year later. That's a way sick deal good sir.
