Sinjinhawke Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Took a gamble and bought the ECS on eBay for $88 CDN shipped. Paid off. Now I need to figure out how to get it on the internet to watch YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Black_Tiger Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 If anyone is looking to get a deal on an ECS, what I did was buy one missing the power supply which was sold as untested. I think I paid $25 Canadian. I just hooked it up with an NES power supply and it works great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't come in the box; they had to be requested by mail. Not sure how many ecs owners did that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BBWW Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Find that 300baud modem and you are gold. It might work if you can still find a BBS. I remember the excitement with my PCjr and it's FAST modem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinjinhawke Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 I shouldn’t complain. Two World Series and One NBA Championship. Several gold medal hockey games. Truly first world problems. I was also born in 1967, feeling aches and pains now after I come back from a run. I’m obviously on my last legs. Come on Leafs. I promise. I won’t riot if you lose in the finals. Not pointing fingers. Cough cough CMart cough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great memories with your dad for sure , Its been since 67 here with no cup... World Series/NBA/MLS cups and Gold Metal Games are good but this City will be closed for business for a month win the Leafs when the Cup... None of those will compare with the partying and celebrating going on here in Toronto and throughout Canada's Leaf fans... lol See I put when...... Cheers Let it be written , So Let it be done!!!!! Edited October 29, 2019 by m-crew spelling mistake as usual ... lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
