so, if you want it, let me know!

people who want it:
roflmao
mishran
bernielindell
chany60126
turbostar
Lamekat
andrew23

also, i'm looking to buy a pce duo-r controller to match my system, let me know if you've got one for sale.

EDIT: bernielindell, looks like you won, pm me with your address and such and i'll have the controller in the mail for ya!

roflmao · 08/31/2011, 12:24 PM

Hey bartre, if no one else needs it, I could use an extra one. I've currently got only one Turbo Pad, but I do have a Turbo Stick and a Tap. But having an extra controller would be nice. I'd be happy to at least cover shipping, if not come up with something I could shoot your way for a little trade.

Mishran · 08/31/2011, 01:04 PM

My one of two pads took a crap on me a few months back so I'm down to one as well. Unless someone else is in dire need of the controller, you can put me into the drawing, please. Thanks mate.

Username Paul was looking for one something fierce. Also Nectarsis was looking for one for a frie d who needed one bad.

GohanX · 08/31/2011, 03:56 PM

I don't need one, but I think it's awesome that you're giving it away

JoshTurboTrollX · 08/31/2011, 04:46 PM

ooh, I'm in.

I've been begging for controllers of any variety for ages! I'd be willing to pay tho.....

thank you kind sir!

chany60126 · 08/31/2011, 04:59 PM

Nice Bart! I could really use one myself as I only have one Turbo Pad.

Bernie · 08/31/2011, 07:14 PM

Count me in man. Thanks!

RR1980 · 09/01/2011, 01:51 AM

I don't need one cause I don't have a TG16 but yeah very generious of you to give this away bartre! Also I think Paul is looking for a PCE 2 button pad to go with his core grafx II not a TG16 pad.

bartre · 09/01/2011, 09:29 AM

alright, well paul and nec, if you want the controllers, you gotta tell me, otherwise i'm gonna take you out of the running to make sure that people who actually need/want it get the controller.

Nazi NecroPhile · 09/01/2011, 09:41 AM

Cool kids use wireless pads so I don't need this one, but props to bartre for his generosity.

LameKat · 09/02/2011, 12:56 AM

I'll put my name in if you please. I've got a tap, ext. cable and 1 pad not very helpful for 2 player.

bartre · 09/02/2011, 01:20 AM

alright, one more day to go!
i'll be deciding once i get home tomorrow, probably 4 or so

andrew23 · 09/02/2011, 03:27 PM

My I button just stopped working in the middle of Ninja Spirit (%*@#!&). I would like a working pad.

I've opened it up, and found out the Membrane is torn (from overuse). Where are you anyways, bartre? I could pay for shipping via paypal.

GohanX · 09/02/2011, 03:55 PM

Andrew: Do you mean the rubber contact pad? I think I've got an extra set of contact pads that Nat sent me a while back, if you're in the US I'll ship it to you (assuming I still have it.)

andrew23 · 09/02/2011, 05:05 PM

I'm in Montreal, Canada. Yeah it's those rubber contact pads.

bartre · 09/02/2011, 07:46 PM

the decision has been made!
not by me, but by a random number, controller goes to bernielindell!

LameKat · 09/02/2011, 09:26 PM

T'was an honor just to be nominated.
Congrats to bernielindell

GohanX · 09/02/2011, 09:41 PM

Andrew: PM me your address, I should be able to stick it in an envelope and ship it as a "document" to avoid paying stupid USPS internation shipping charges.

GameFreak · 09/03/2011, 10:27 AM

Bartre- I just read this thread after making my own "freebie" thread in the pc-engine section yesterday. That's awesome you did this! There must be something in the air or water making us give away our stuff. Or maybe bluebmw giving away massive amounts of sapphire has rubbed off on us.

GohanX · 09/03/2011, 10:52 AM

There's a lot of good karma here!

bartre · 09/03/2011, 11:37 AM

well, beemer's given me some free shiz, so i figured i should do the same.
after all, that's how i got splash lake, one of my favorite TG games

also, BERNIE I STILL NEED YOUR INFO!!!

BlueBMW · 09/03/2011, 02:02 PM

Bernie's power has been out for a week or so... I think he just got it back on. He'll probably get in contact with you soon!

Bernie · 09/03/2011, 02:44 PM

Awesome deal!! PM sent. Yeah, been dealing with hurricane aftermath here in VA. Everything is getting back to normal now tho.

RR1980 · 09/03/2011, 02:57 PM

congrats to Bernie for the controller and a shout out to all the fellas who's been doing giveaways lately!

roflmao · 09/03/2011, 07:10 PM

Awesome - glad to hear it's going to a good home.

neoxeno · 09/04/2011, 10:53 AM

2 thumbs up for Bartre

Send me some Montreal poutine and I'll send you some Halifax donair. lol

andrew23 · 09/04/2011, 02:48 PM

Sounds good to me; I wouldn't mind trying a donair. If only it was that simple...

JoshTurboTrollX · 09/06/2011, 09:29 PM

'grats Bernie!

andrew23 · 09/06/2011, 09:54 PM

If it's any consellation, I found that sillicon window sealer works very well to repair torn membranes (works perfectly)! I don't think I need to post photos/detailed instructions, because it's pretty self explanitory.
