Just rambling on in the car, no loots today!..or any day lately.

You don't :) Or at least I don't.
I just replaced the back side of the case since it's easier.

Yeah, I used to play it all the damn time.
Never played the 2nd one though yet.

It's called a Vtech Flash.
A edutainment system for kids.
Its cd-based I believe.

oh ok. what i remember was called "Game Wave Family Entertainment System" made by zapit.
it's a hybrid DVD player and video game console.
Game Wave is aimed at a more family friendly market: a majority of its games are trivia based or video versions of more traditional games (such as variants of Scrabble and Blackjack). The Gamewave can connect up to 6 controllers (which look like TV remotes) but comes with 4. Each controller has a different colour (yellow, red, blue, green, purple, and orange)

Yeah, I think it's broken though since it says "as-is" on it, which usually translates as broken or problematic.

chances are it was is nothing wrong and if something would be the fuseable resistor on the controller board and that is easyish to replace. those things are made good and don't really have much trouble from what i seen. the gdrom could be bad but i haven't seen that happen often. still could have used it for parts.
