Also got the Blu-ray of Big Fish last week for a tenner.

That PS2 cover art kicks the living sh*t out of the US version.

Picked up a VGA to S-Video and Composite converter box today from my local electronics store for $60. Works pretty damn well. The picture is a bit blurry, but the colors are nice and the overall picture quality is pretty good. Composite video even looks better than PCs with graphics cards that have integrated Composite outputs.

Now I've got something I can use for direct capture from arcade boards(I'll be running an RGB to VGA scan doubler into the box to then convert the VGA into S-Video).

You are one lucky bastard, you know that? I've seen TurboDuos go for insanely high prices(close to $700US, and sometimes even more than that). To get a TurboDuo IN ITS BOX with the games you got for $10 is like you practically stole the TurboDuo. Have fun with it!

Oh, and be sure to replace the capacitors on the motherboard. The TurboDuo is notorious for premature capacitor failure, so the sooner your system's capacitors are replaced, the longer it will last. And clean the area around each capacitor's solder spots with some rubbing alcohol while you're at it - this will remove any electrolyte that may have already leaked.

I'm still in shock I found it. Thanks for the advice!

That Turbo Duo deal is absolutely insane. Worth hundreds of dollars with those games... Good work!

We gotta start having annual award threads. Like, best thread of the year, best user oty, best FIND of the year etc.

If we do something like that at the end of 2011, I'm putting in a sturdy vote for leafsfan's Turbo Duo thievery.

You don't want to go down that road. Trust me on this.

Yep RightStuf did it. I need to buy both volumes when I get around it.
