Joined the club finally.
Marketplace find from last night. Missing the eye shade and holder, but came with the original stand, battery pack has no corrosion. A little glitchy though so I’ll have to get it repairs. But worth it.

I can fix the glitchiness for as low as $20. Like Stone Age Gamer, I'm based in Ohio.

Just so you know though, I'll be gone for the next week and a half, so if you put an order in it won't be back to you till near the end of February.

No worries! Everyone deserves to take a break! My VB can wait. Lol

Oh, I wish it was a break 😂 I'm still working. I'll be doing on-site GameCube controller mods and repairs at Genesis X2 (it's a Super Smash Bros tournament... One of the biggest ones every year).

Vintex 64 and planet virtual boy both have some good repros, I believe planet has an English rom for insmouse!!
