Title: NES Power Cord
Post by: turf on August 06, 2013, 05:02:52 pm
Anyone know where to find a good(read:cheap) replacement power cord for an NES?  It doesn't have to be a nes-002.  I just need a 9V 1a power cord with the right size plug

They are hella cheap.

I have a couple of NES A/C adapters if you need one.

I'm going to sell a few of my extra NES consoles.  Who really needs 9?  That's why I'm looking for a cheap solution.  Those NES-002 AC adapters are getting hard to find.

I've had really good luck digging through the bins of wall-warts at my local thrift stores. You might be able to find something there.

You have 9 NES consoles????    How much you selling them for?  Just curious.

And per the power cord,  I actually use a generic adapter that I used to have for an old cd system stereo and I been using that adapter for 2 years now so it's good.

I think I sold 3 of them for $35 each.  I gave 2 away.  Then I still have 4 (My original one, my wife's, my cousin's and one with no AC adapter)  Wasn't really looking to make a killing.  I was just spreading the love.

Ah okay.  I thought you meant you own 9 for your self lol ;D  I was wondering what you were doing with all those but I later remember seeing some one who has an NES for his nes gaming, he modded an NES as a dvd player, one as a vcr, etc. so i may have thought you did something NES entertainment center or something which is very cool.
