Remember I mentioned I had a t-shirt what said "I <3 Northcote"? This is what a version of it looks like:
Northcote T-shirt
(I've got the black version. Oh, and clearly I'm not in this shot :-P )

And better still, you can buy one of your own online! You know you want to :-)

Damn it, curse you Anime Zone of Box Hill! I was wandering around on a Sunday, minding my own business, when I accidentally blundered into this shop. Why the heck was I in Box Hill? I had Toastmasters training, which in the end I decided to skip, and had brunch with [livejournal.com profile] evildoom_bunny. Note to self: Box Hill is a really really bad place to have brunch. Not a whole lot of good cafes there. Good bubble tea and custard buns however.

We went for a walk after brunch, and I happen to know there's an early 80's LCD hand-held game nutter who runs (one of) the Anime collector stores down there. He often has excess parts of his collection in his shop... Where I wandered... Assuming it wouldn't be open on a Sunday. But it was. And they had a Nintendo Game and Watch which I didn't have. Damn damn damn. So then $45 leapt from my wallet onto the counter, and now I am the proud owner of this:
Nintendo Game and Watch Pinball
(Not this exact copy, this is a picture I plagiarized from the ol' internet. My only digital camera is on my phone and it's not great.)

I now have twelve of these things... Eep.

Here's another picture for you all:

(Click on picture for More Bigger version.)

This is my collection of game and watch Nintendo thingies. Including the newly acquired one mentioned below, the black one in the middle is "Pinball". And more importantly, the pile of dead batteries I pulled from them! Anyone know where I can get 24 LR-44 watch batteries for cheap???

Some of them had actually corroded a little, damn it. Hope they haven't damaged "Parachute"!

Or, as [livejournal.com profile] jedi_amara suggested, I should just get one set of batteries and swap them between games :-)
