vandymachine Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) I am selling an NES (toaster) console with the Blinking Light Win (Kickstarter) Cart slot on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-NES-NTSC-with-Blinking-Light-Win-Kickstarter-cart-slot-region-free-/251999188756? This listing contains the following: NES Console with BLW cart slot Original Nintendo power supply Original Nintendo RF adapter RCA cable (Did not test unknown if working)Tomee NES controller The Legend of Zelda game with dust protector. What is Blinking Light Win? The Blinking Light Win consists of two parts, a dual connector PCB and a redesigned loading tray. The dual connector PCB takes the place of the original 72-pin connector. You'll notice it doesn't resemble a ZIF in any way and that's what makes it special. By being closer to a traditional edge connector, you'll get to enjoy the reliability of every other cartridge based system. Less bending = longer lifespan.The redesigned loading tray completely eliminates the need to latch down the cartridge before you can starting playing (think Game Genie). This also provides a consistent path for the cartridge to interface with the dual connector. When latching down with the original design, small deviations in how it went down can mean the difference between annihilating Red Falcon or giving the TV the finger. One of our old friends swears that pushing it down half way was the formula for success. We still think the shirt method is better. - From the BLW Kickstarter page https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/113891498/blinking-light-win-resurrecting-your-nes/description Listing is live today at 10PM Pacific time.

7800fan Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Can't see the listing. Either the link has typo or the listing was killed by eBay. Is that Nintendo mod hater still around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+wongojack Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I dismissed BLW during the KS because I usually play NES games in emulation. I don't think that I realized how easy it was to install. For $20, I kinda wished I bought it. Why are you selling? Is there some drawback to BLW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandymachine Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) It's great! And I bought two. I have had no issues with the unit I installed in the one going on Ebay. Edited June 18, 2015 by vandymachine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Do you still have to blow in the carts ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandymachine Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 The cartridges should be cleaned before using, but after that there no issues. It works just as good or better than the top loader NES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icemanxp300 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Can't this be shipped in a large flat rate priority? $25 seems high for s/h. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
