My head is still spinning. I went to take out the garbage and found this at the bottom of a trash can in the alley behind my house.

Whoa mama!

Perfect timing.

Holla back when you test it out!!! Might need to clean/bend the pins. Probably the reason someone threw it out.

I tested it already and it works fine. The male end of the connector that goes into the tv was bent, maybe the owner tried it and it didn't work? This thing is perfect. I quit collecting about five years ago but I'm keeping this thing.

No games?

Might go around to your neighbors and see. Maybe one was into the Family Fun Fitness Pad.

Nice save! Looks in pristine condition to me, and I'm sure that NES is happier now. Congrats!

That's an insane find!

It kinda makes me angry to think that people would throw it away.

I'm sure more than a few got tossed back in the day.

What's weird is one showing up in 2018.

Ah, so you found the secret room, eh? Bask in the glory of a Mario Trilogy, a Pair of Zeldas and a Sextet of Megamans. Yes this is the little grey box that could and continues to do. What lies ahead is entirely up to you. YOU DECIDE

.... or maybe someone thought it was a clever hiding spot for just a minute when their boyfriend (SUPRISE) was home for lunch break on his birthday and after he left they ran back to get it out and wrap it and WHAM-O! It was gone! What a mystery

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
