    Hey guys, I work at an old Nintendo Repair Shop. Now it is mostly TV's and Stereo's because Nintendo has a policy of not sending out parts to any certified repair place. Just thought I would share some pictures with you to see if these items are rare or just kinda cool. Ask me any other questions if you want! (sorry, pics are from a cell phone so quality is not the best. also whited out any info on location.)

    To answer your question, they're scarce but not unobtainable items. What would be of interest is service manuals, tech training manuals etc. I'm always looking out for those if there are any going ;-)
