Got a little story for you guys, maybe you can help me out.

Over the weekend I happened by a moving sale in town. I decide to check it out. I find a BOX FULL OF NINTENDO STUFF. Get super excited, I've been looking for an NES for a few months now and there is 3 in this box with 18 games (to include Super Mario 3 that is still in the box!) Buy the whole box for 75$ and go home. Last night I get the brilliant idea to clean them up a little before my power cable shows up in the mail to test them. Grab some paper towels and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Soak the towel and happily start scrubbing away. The top looks AWESOME! likebrandnew.png
Start scrubbing the sides! Can't wait to take pics of this thing all cleaned up! Start scrubbing the front.....see a red streak across the cover. Move my hand and see the Nintendo logo was smeared and gone! fuckmylife.webm

Is there a way to fix this?

Pic is very related, it's the actual console!

>>343071027
Well OP!
Seems like ya ran into quite a pickle!
Best thing I can offer is to take it to a retro game store!
Exclamation point!
>>
>>343071027
Yeah, apply the unrubbing alcohol to it.

No, there's no way to fix it, you stupid fuckboy. You'd need to get a stencil and literally repaint it.

>buying it before even testing it
>ordering a power cable by mail

This is just one big bait thread, isn't it? You could have bought a cooked box.

Post the other games so I can tell if you got fucked or not. I think you got fucked.

What do you mean "fix it"? The paint can't unremove itself. You either paint it back on it it's not there.

what a faggot

You can order a replacement cover.
>>
>>343071027
Fix it? Not really. The best I imagine is buying a replacement door from eBay, but chances are the colours are quite off. I'd probably stick with what you've got.

Took a chance. Tested the games on my buddys console, they all work. If the consoles don't work it's probly the connector which is an easy fix

>any shop

There's over 4 used game shops in my town and literally every single one of them boots up the console to show you it works before you buy it.

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
