May be trading/selling/buying

[Shakespeare]

There are several reasons why you shouldn't even glance at this thread, the first (and most obvious) being my post count and how recently I joined. I'd be suspicious too, put in anyone else's position.

Another reason is that I'm not even completely sure I'll be trading the items I'm listing or not, and even if I am it won't be until about a month from now. I'm just making this thread as a sort of headstart, in which I'll answer questions, clear any confusion, and make the possible trading more smooth.

The third reason is that I live in Hawaii, and shipping is a pain. Of course, if I trade these, I'll likely pay for shipping (depending on the other participant's offer).

Now, then. For the list.

LOOKING FOR:

• Soldering iron + solder
• N64 game cartridges/accessories
• PS1 or Zenith screen
• Any screen compatible with both NES and SNES
• Retro Duo or FC Twin (RD preferred)
• Atari Flashback 2.0
• Miscelleneous switches (the cooler they look, the more likely I'll be interested)
• Electronic odds and ends (whatever catches my eye)

(MAYBE) FOR TRADE:

• Pink Nintendo DS Lite

This is less likely to be traded than the PS2, as it was a Christmas gift (though I rarely ever use it). It's been kept in decent condition, though there are some scratches and fingerprints (which I'll be cleaning off) on the case. It's used, of course, but compared to some other used handhelds I've seen, it's been treated well. Depending on what I'm offered, I'll throw in my games.

List of games I have for the DS:

• Animal Crossing: Wild World
• Assassin's Creed
• Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
• Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
  
  
  • Playstation 2 (Phat model)
  I'll probably be able to trade this, as (like the DS) I rarely ever use it. To be honest, I only ever use it to play DVDs nowadays. There are several downsides to this one, though. The first is that it only has one working controller, and that controller is third-party (I prefer it over the original controllers, to be honest). However, I'll be tinkering with my other third-party controller as well as my remaining original one to try and get them working. If I can, I'll throw those in with the console. Heck, if you want, I can throw them in anyway and let you tinker with them.
  
  I've also got a couple of memory sticks, a controller extension, a remote, and receiver (for DVD-watching).

  List of games I have for the PS2:
  • Okage: Shadow King
  • Jade Cocoon 2
  • Gran Turismo 3
  • Alter Echo
  • ATV: Offroad Fury
  • ATV: Offroad Fury 3
  • Full Spectrum Warrior
  • Spy Hunter
  • Shadow of the Colossus
  • Legacy of Kain: Defiance
  • Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel
  • Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Rise of the Crimson Elixir
  • (Tentative) Nintendo 64
  To be honest, I'm only putting this up here to get an estimate of how much I'd get for it, and to see who'd be interested. I've dusted it off and it's in full working condition. I know I have more games, but I can't seem to find them right now. I have I'll get back to this thread when I do. I've got all of the cables for it, as well as a transfer expansion (for sticking your oldschool Red/Blue Gameboy carts into for use in Pokemon Stadium).
  
  List of games I have for the N64:
  • Pokemon Stadium
  • Pokemon Stadium 2 (Still looking for it, but I know I have it)
  • Lode Runner 3-D
  • Resident Evil 2
  • Donkey Kong 64
  • Legend of Zelda: OOT
  • Legend of Zelda: MM
  • Forsaken (Loved this game, but can't seem to find it)

I also have this neato Pokemon-themed carrying bag for the GameBoy Color (I assume) and GB games. It's got all sorts of cool pouches and whatnot. Lugia and Ho-Oh are on the front, so I'm guessing this was a promotional bag for when the new Pokemon games came out. It's basically this bag but black. I dunno, if you're a geek like me, you may like it.

Anyway, I'll keep an eye out for other things I'd like to sell. I maaaay go ahead and sell my N64 and its games, but that's even less likely, as I'm very attached to it. I won't be trading these things for at least a month, so this thread is really just for questions/comments/offers until then. Let me know if you want pics, and I'll get off my lazy rear. Thanks.

Is the PS2 a slim or phat model?

[Shakespeare]

Phat, I believe. It's got the expansion bay, so I'd assume it's not the thin model. Probably not good for portables.

the thin model is slightly smaller than a vhs case. you would know if you had one.

I thought the expansion bay was a dead giveaway. :P

YOU CAN PROBABLY FIT A SLIM IN THE EXPANSION BAY! (NOT REALLY, BUT STILL)
argh! caps lock!!

[Shakespeare]

Now I'm curious as to why anyone would want to put a PS2 Slim inside of a PS2 Phat's expansion bay. I don't know how two PS2s in one case could be useful.

Regardless, I've got the Phat version, so trading for it to make a portable wouldn't be a wise decision. I would recommend getting a Slim for a portable.

Well, the PS2 Phat could make a great paperweight! :D

[AfroLH]

What do you want for the PS2 Phat?

[Shakespeare]

An FC Twin, PSOne screen, or like $40-50. I'd take the FC Twin or screen over actual money, though.

[yoshilime]

err, anything else you would be interested in?

[Shakespeare]

Edited! Yay~

@Yoshilime: That depends on what you've got. I'm always interested in games (NES/SNES/N64/whatever) as well as random electronic odds and ends that I can use in projects or crafts. I also seem to have a fascination with switches and LEDs.

[Shakespeare]

Updated. Added a list of things I could take in trades. That doesn't mean to say I won't take a look at other offers, it just means these are what are guaranteed to catch my eye. You'll have to do some guesswork with anything not on the list.

[eurddrue]

I want either fire red or leafgreen for gba. I have lots of n64 games, name some that you're interested in.

[Shakespeare]

You sure you don't want both? Green hasn't even been out of its box, methinks. Been playing Red for a little bit.

Ooh! And I have the original Red version, but I dunno if it works anymore (years of being stored improperly + Missingno glitch = bad). I could throw that in free of charge.

I can definitely trade LeafGreen and FireRed, especially for an N64 game or two. Lemme know if you want them both or just one. I'm lookin' for Super Mario 64 and Starfox 64 (wouldn't expect both for something as cheap as LG + FR), but I'd take anything I don't already have, tbh.

[eurddrue]

How about banjo kazooie? I have two or three copies of that one. And wrestle mania 2000!
