So, I bust out the 8-bit nintendo for a night of old-school games with my boyfriend, and lo-and-behold, the POWERPAD doesn't work!! :(

So, where to get one? I figure someone here may have it.

I think my friend has one if you want I can ask him if he is willing to part.

All the buttons are out, unfortunately.

Try it in the second port as well as the first?

Yup! :(

Anyone know what's the inside look like? Maybe with enough determination I could fix it? Maybe? Not at all? :)

Its probably built like a DDR pad. I'd try eBay personally, but it is a pretty rare accessory. Cheapest option : http://cgi.ebay.com/Nintendo-POWERPAD-Original-play-powerpad-games_W0QQitemZ160130325872QQihZ006QQcategoryZ3605QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

They seem to go for around 40 or so.

but i still use it! i'm not sure i want to part with it. how much do you want to pay for it? i need money pretty bad right now, so i guess i'd consider it.

unfortunately for you, i'm just now leaving on vacation for a week. i'll be back to check my PMs on Sunday the 1st. Let me know.

I'll take you up on that, but it has to be after the first, so I can sort out getting paid at work and actually having money and stuff. :)

That sounds good. I need a little time to find it anyway... :p (I know I have it though)

You wouldn't happen to be interested in any NES games would you?

I'm at work right now and I can't remember all that I have, but I will post a list of what I've got later this evening.
