    Was that on the retroscene site? If so I reckon we steer clear of it.
    If it was on a website that belongs to a member here we should probably let them know

    Yep on the Retroscene site.

    Best to avoid so as that virus is a nasty fecker if your anti-virus/anti-malware doesn't catch it.

    Damn sorry for posting that link. I don't have any anti-virus (ran malware bytes after you posted about it yesterday and found nothing)
    Removed original link anyway

    The seller has obviously not found issue with you. The whole adverts system is gone to pot...it's more like an auction these days, only with less rules

    Already sold(for $2500) and I wouldn't have bought it but a very nice item for a collector all the same.

    How will a Ninty Fanboi know where the buttons are without the nice bright colours to guide him/her?
    I mean, that Gamecube controller looks nothing like a V-Tech Smile controller, nothing like the babies teething toy it normally resembles!
    An average Ninty fan would crumble into confusion at such a sight....
    No, they should just give it to me, I'll look after it, no worries

    Actually, having read the auction, how hard would it be to turn it "functional"?
    Would that be a terrible thing to do??
    I reckon it'd be cool...

    all in working order but for the restore button sticks

    I take it he means the reset button is full of gunk & sticks down?

    It's worth the 20 and everyone should have a Megadrive and Sonic, everyone.

    Like owning a Snes and SMW, or a Nes and SMB3 or Duckhunt, everyone should have them.

    Sorry for the large pic but wtf, Strikers 1945 PCB on ebay, 100% working apparently. You'd think the seller would give it some sort of dusting first... :confused:

    Sorry, here it is: link. Cheap starting bid but look at the shipping. Maybe if the price stayed very low it might be worth the effort.
