Super Famicom System

in Price Check
My roommate and I ventured into a local curio stand yesterday and found
a Super Famicom system with a game for it, Final Fight boxed.  My
roommate haggled with the little old Asian man running the place and
paid him $50.  The system doesn't have any hook ups or controllers. 
Does anyone know how much this strange treasure from the orient is worth and also what's the deal
with hooking it up?

    Hate to be the bringer of bad news, but for the system without hookups, about $25-$30. For the game, about another $10. The good news, however, is that you probably already have what's needed to hook it up. For hookups, you can use the AV cables from an N64 or Gamecube without a problem, as well as a NES's (not SNES) AC adapter.

    A Megadrive (Genesis) power supply should work flawlessly, it does on my SFC. For reference, my Megadrive PSU outputs 10V 850mA DC (the same as the Virtual Boy and SNES), I'm not 100% sure what the Genesis runs at but I would of thought it would be the same. Using a 9V 1.3A AC (NES UK PSU) on my SFC produces a corrupt picture.

    Hm...that's strange...  My NES's AC adapter works perfectly with my Super Famicom.  And yes, I have heard that a Genesis's AC adapter would work as well, though I've never actually tried it...
