Picked up classic, grail if you will. However there is bad news.....
After finding a childhood favorite about 200 miles away, I had to find an excuse to do the trip. Keep in mind after driving 6 hours to buy a smash tv that turned out to be broken, making out of town trips have not been high on my priority list
Several weeks go by and an excuse is found (snowmobile show in the same city). Make the arrangements with the seller and today go pick up the game. SCRAMBLE in a stern cab. Seller said the game was working great but lo and behold......no sound when he turned it on today. Grrrrrr. So he offered to sell it at half price and i now have an upright scramble with no sound.
I am still on the road and I realize this may not be the optimum place to ask but any guesses on the issue? Will reseat the connectors and chips and check voltages and that will pretty much tax my skills. Here's hoping it's something simple because I love the game. Nice to save a few bucks on the purchase but if it's not an easy fix, i will curse the gods!
