8-Bit Calavera
The Autumn Society (a world-wide collective of artists) and Ground
Kontrol Classic Arcade are proud to present 8-Bit Calavera, an art
installation featuring 40 Nintendo Entertainment System cartridges
hand-painted with “Day of the Dead” themes by 40 artists, originally
displayed at Ground Kontrol in the shape of a pixel skull. These
cartridges look fantastic mounted on a wall or in a display case.

Classic Consoles:
From Your Mom's Yard Sale Back To You!
Ground Kontrol carries a wide array of classic consoles to help you ease on down that dusty, digital memory lane. Revisit a simpler time when joysticks had one button, dragons looked more like seahorses, and you still believed you'd grow up to be a crime-fighting millionaire who regularly vacationed on the moon.
We clean and recondition everything we sell and provide a thirty day exchange guarantee on all purchases. We currently stock the following systems:
- Nintendo Entertainment System
- Super Nintendo
- Sega Genesis
- Atari 2600, 5200, and 7800
- Colecovision
- Intellivision
- Sony PlayStation (which, okay, isn't that old)
and lots of semi-obscure finds like the Vectrex, and Odyssey^2 systems lovingly preserved in their original boxes!
Games, Games, Games!
And what console is complete without an accompanying host of game cartridges? Ground Kontrol carries games for every system we sell, many still in the original packaging. And just like our systems, we personally clean and test every game we sell.
So what are you waiting for? Call, email, or visit us to see if we've got your favorite game or system in stock! Do it now or suffer the consequences!
We Need Your Old Video Games And Systems!
Calling all old-school gamers! Search your closets, basements, and terrifying, spider-filled crawl spaces for old, unwanted game systems and bring them to us! We'll trade you better, refurbished systems or just give you some cold, hard cash for playing Joust and Dig Dug for hours on end. Just think of all the points you can score in Tempest with an old Atari's worth of quarters!
Stuff we're especially looking for:
- NES systems, dead or alive, in good cosmetic condition
- Original Atari consoles and joysticks in any condition
- Super Nintendo systems in good cosmetic condition: Grey, not yellowed!
- Super Nintendo controllers and games
- Sega Genesis systems and games
