Wanted: Blue Nintendo Button
« on: August 30, 2013, 10:26:14 PM »
Today i cleaned & greased all the joysticks from my red tent, but i had a little accident. The control panel slipped out of my hands and destroyed one perfect blue button..  :( :(
Really a bummer because the red tent is otherwise in excellent condition. So i could really use a blue button, i only need the top part (which you push).. the rest is still intact..

Please pm me if you got one..

I think I have a few. Need the best ones for myself but have more blue ones than I need.
Orange, on the other hand...

They're not polished or refurbished yet.

Let me check.

I might have one. Is it special, or just a leaf switch button in a certain blue? I think I once bought a button with the idea to built a scratch DK around it. That did not happen, but the button is there.

That's a repro judging on the color.

Found 7 blue ones. But as expected, they aren't really pretty.
They are soaking in hot water as we speak, try to clean them up better tomorrow.

Shall I bring yours to the Retro Experience saturday or do you want me to mail it to you?
