Well, I bought a working one (reconditioned) with the wiring and controller for $99.99 off Ebay, shipping included. Came with a 90 day warranty too. It was cheaper than buying a broken console and the wiring and controller separately(broken consoles were $50-60 shipped). I figure that if it fails eventually, then I can fix that one. Now all I need are some games and a new TV and I might have something for people to do at my house.
