Adam reviews the Ninten-Drawer, a replacement for the original 72 pin connector on the NES. What does it do? Basically makes the system work every time, and even disables the region locking.
Ah, the original NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) – the 8-bit wonder that turned living rooms into pixelated playgrounds and made “blowing on cartridges” a recognized form of technical troubleshooting. Released in the mid-80s, this gray box of joy brought us countless hours of jumping plumbers, princess-saving, and more pixelated ducks than anyone knew what to do with. With its rectangular controllers designed to fit perfectly into the hands of a young gamer or serve as a medieval torture device for adults, the NES redefined our understanding of entertainment.
Every game started with the suspenseful moment of inserting the cartridge and praying it would work without the dreaded flicker of a glitched screen. When faced with technical difficulties, the ritualistic blowing into the cartridge – a move endorsed by no one and yet practiced by everyone – often seemed to summon gaming miracles. In the era of the NES, every pixel was precious, every game was a challenge, and every player was a hero in their own 8-bit saga.

When buying a used car, it’s crucial to thoroughly inspect various aspects to ensure you’re making a sound investment. Here are the top 5 things to look out for:
1. Vehicle History Report: – Accident History: Check for any reported accidents, their severity, and the repairs made. – Title Status: Ensure the title is clean and not salvaged, rebuilt, or branded. – Ownership History: Look at the number of previous owners and how the car was used (personal, rental, commercial). – Service Records: Review maintenance and service records to see if the car has been regularly maintained.
2. Mechanical Condition: – Engine: Listen for any unusual noises, check for leaks, and look for excessive smoke from the exhaust. – Transmission: Ensure smooth shifting in both manual and automatic transmissions. – Suspension and Steering: Test for smooth and responsive steering, and check for any clunking sounds or vibrations while driving. – Brakes: Check the condition of the brake pads and rotors, and ensure the braking is responsive without any noise.
3. Exterior and Interior Condition: – Exterior: Look for signs of rust, dents, and mismatched paint which might indicate previous damage. – Tires: Check the tread depth and look for any uneven wear which could indicate alignment issues. – Interior: Inspect for wear and tear on the seats, dashboard, and upholstery. Ensure all controls and electronics (windows, lights, air conditioning, etc.) are functioning properly.
4. Test Drive: – Performance: Assess the car’s performance in various driving conditions—city traffic, highways, and different speeds. – Comfort: Evaluate the comfort level of the ride, seating position, visibility, and noise levels. – Handling: Pay attention to how the car handles, the responsiveness of the steering, and the braking efficiency.
5. Professional Inspection: – Certified Mechanic: Have the car inspected by a trusted mechanic who can provide a thorough evaluation of its condition and identify any potential issues that might not be obvious during a casual inspection. – Diagnostic Tools: Ensure the mechanic uses diagnostic tools to check for any hidden issues, especially with the engine and transmission.
By thoroughly checking these aspects, you can make a more informed decision and avoid potential problems down the road when buying a used car.
