This is a very long story, so I'll cut to the chase...
I found a Sega 32X on sale for 5 dollars at Wal-Mart.
You can't even buy a used 32X for less than $10 at my local Game X-change! At first I couldn't believe it. It turns out that Wal-Mart grossly overestimated the popularity of some Video games and systems, and as a result they have tons of aging electronic inventory that they have to get rid of, at any price.
So, all you retro-gamers (especially in southern, rural areas) check your local Wal- Mart for old games at dirt cheap prices!
Yes, I bought a 32X.
