Super Wild Card < that
Super Famicom
Famicom 3D System (which,if you disregard the state of the box, was practically new) < that
Zelda & Zelda II Famicom Discs < that

Here they are:
Super Wild Card:

The 3D system:

IMGP0227.JPG

Like I said, the box has some superficial damage (the slight discoloration is because there is a lot of dust on it, not because of any kind of damage) but the contents are pretty much like new (I didn't take the converter out of the box, but it is in the same state)
The Zelda Discs:

These have not arrived yet, but these are (supposedly) actual pics of the discs in question.

Those are really interesting items, mind explaining what the 3D system is about, as well as the wild card?
The Wild Card is a snes copier, which means that I can create backups of my snes games, as wel as play roms using a floppy. And the 3D system is basically a pair of shutter glasses which can be connected to a famicom through the port on the front. Using this in conjunction with games that supported this function enabled 3d vision in those games.

Such a cute dog ;3
Yes, she's adorable, even though she can be a pain in my ass at times.

I bought the Wild Card from Marktplaats (lit. the market place), which is basically a local Ebay/Craigslist type of site for 20 euro's (which is probably far cheaper than it should be), and the 3d System from Ebay for 50 dollars (again far cheaper than it should be in these parts).

Ordered an old xbox 360 on ebay the other night relatively cheap with everything included (£65) and is still on 2.0.5759.0 dash I believe.
Hacking shall ensue (well... once I gather the equipment that is >.>)
Not sure if I should invest in a fan, it is one of the "Core" models if that makes a difference.

I've been playing more traditional games than anything else lately, so I've bought a shitload of board games lately:
  • Munchkin, for a buck at a garage sale.
  • Warhammer Invasion
  • Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards
  • Eaten by Zombies: In Cahoots.
  • And I got some fanmade Card Wars cards printed, because that's how I roll.
And then I sold most of my retro game collection.

Ok guys I need some help here, I really want to fund this and get my own but i'm not sure if i'll get scammed or not. It's happened to people before on sites like those. Do you guys think it's legit?

I bought the two Zelda Oracles games on the 3DS eShop, and then proceeded to buy the actual cartridges on Amazon (because I'm an obsessed fanboy like that).

I also bought the Nintendo-licensed Power-A case for my 3DS XL, which holds tons of stuff, including up to 40 DS/3DS carts. :D

Better do it.
Doesn't matter if it's Core or Elite, it's just a selling name.
Underneath, their pretty much are all the same.
But judging on the age of the Dash and the selling name.
I suspect that this is a Xenon/Zephyr or VERY early Falcon at best.
I'd deffo rig a few cooling mods up ;p

Just a nice intake fan and cut a hole in the side of the case.
Along with that, I'd cut away the metal mesh in the back of the chassis to let the air flow out better.
And I'd set the fan speeds to atleast 80% in FSD and in your NAND.
It might be loud but it will ensure you that the console lives longer.
