Banbury Cash Converters Round 2

This past thursday-friday my band once again took a journey north-west for a couple gigs in Bicester and Banbury (as we had done previously this year with good results). Along our journey there was enough time for laughs, drinks, football in a field and even a little game chasing.

The Cash Converters in Banbury was once again fruitful, as it had been on our previous visit.

Here’s my haul:

First off is this fully working, rechargable powerpak for the Game Boy Color. No need for a backlit screen when it’s soo bright outside and now this thing is rechargable it’s once again my favourite portable!

Having recently aquired a Game Gear I’ve been searching for descent games, this is a good start. Rather similar concept to the ‘Alien 3’ game released for Mega Drive, save hostages and kill aliens… only this time it’s a top down view. Good game.

I saw this and was hoping it was a 3rd party fighting pad for the Mega Drive but it is infact a controller for the Sega Saturn. It’s in good condition and feels just as sturdy (if not more so) then the official Saturn controller… however I’m yet to find a purpose for the turbo feature, maybe I need some space shooters. Any recommendations?

Lastly from my Cash Converters haul was this modest little RF lead… which I didn’t actually pay for… I’m assuming they thought it was something to do with the controller or they just didn’t have prices for their boxes of misc leads.
