NES harmonicas hit eBay, three lucky gamers cheer
Remember the HarmoNESica? A brief refresher, then: it's what happens when you've got a copy of Super Tecmo Bowl, a Pocket Pal harmonica, and the desire to create a unique musical instrument. But if you don't have any of the aforementioned ingredients and just want the end result, eBay's got you covered as usual -- three HarmoNESicas have been gathering bids at the online auction house this week. Whether your pleasure be Dick Tracy, Super Mario Bros. 3 or The Legend of Zelda, there's a harmonica to match; and if (for some reason) you want to actually play one of the games, you'll find the ROM guts tastefully included. But before you make your bid, remember: there's more than one way to skin an NES cartridge.
HarmoNESica is exactly that

Finally, something constructive to do with those old Where's Waldo carts
Seriously, it isn't like you're actually enjoying your copy of Where's Waldo, right? If you are, may we suggest professional help for your broken brain? In all seriousness, though, it doesn't matter what NES cart the guy did this to (he used Tecmo Super Bowl). Turning any NES cartridge into a harmonica is pretty cool. Looks like the instrument isn't just for train-car-hopping winos any more!
