   The first N64 I bought, for $24.99 mind you, actually came with one in   
   it. I was shocked, and pleased. I had thought that the one my buddy sold   
   me had it in there as well, but it was that bullshit "jumper pack".

   Yeah, I'm going to go with the official Nintendo brand on this one.   
   There's a few auctions on ebay right now, I'll watch some and see how it   
   goes. I need to get an S-Video cable for it as well...

   It's wild how Nintendo still sells that stuff directly, wish Sega could   
   be bothered to do that.
