Strange dig...........

[Mighty AP]

Went to the over hunted park after work today, took LQ & the dog with me. Didnt realize but it was damned hot, only hunted about an hour, even Charlie dog stayed in the shade! I got a strong nickel signal at about 2 inches, started digging & pull out this Gameboy advance game, covered with dirt. Ive bought LQ every Gameboy ever released & she has 50-60 games for em so I threw it in her direction & forgot all about it. Dug a quarter, nickel, dime & 11 pennies plus a pocket full of crap & pulltabs in an hour. Im sitting at my PC in my office & she just walked in with her GameboyDS & showed me that she cleaned the game & it works...........its Pitfall, a game she didnt have! LOL Has any body else ever dug up a video game that worked?
The sad part is everytime I get a nickel signal from now on Im gonna be pissed off if its not a video game!!!

I dug up a areosmith 8 track this spring and it still work. Also dug a video" How to install your new garage door" and it worked also. Cannot tell you what enjoyment it was watching that one

One man's treasure is another man's treasure!!!!!!....I think that's how it goes.....Nice find!!!!

thats cool it still works now if we can only find some mp3 players

There was a commercial (long time ago) about somebody digging up a Timex watch...so on my construction job I unearthed one, sure as shootin, it worked after I wound it.

Mighty..cool find, bet your daughter was thrilled...
Gypsy...a dug 8 track that still worked? damn, those things didn;t work well when they were new, I remember jamming matchbooks under them to make them play....Where did you find an 8 track player I tossed all mine FAST just as soon as casettes came out...

 

[Mighty AP]

I find it a little disturbing to hear that you have an 8track player to test that Areosmith tape Gypsy! lol This IS the 21st century girl! I cant believe you are old enough to know what an 8 track was..........is? My 1st car, a 1970 2 door Nova had a jammin' 8 track system in it, I had dozens & dozens of cool tapes too! (Carpenters, Air Supply, etc) LOL

And MaineDigger, I gave the video game to my girlfriend! LOL She is a nut for video games, she plays "Bomberman" & completes all fifty some-odd levels without dying once! Im lucky to get through the 1st level without losing all 3 men!

Not one I would have guessed from your title. A working game would have never entered my mind.

Congratulations,

Neat, that it still works, Congrats!!!
Pitfall was a good old Atari game I remember all to well. I waisted a lot of valuable detecting time playing that one...
Good luck, & Happy hunting~
