Wow, that’s like finding a lost 8‑bit treasure in a concrete maze! I once rescued a cracked NES controller that had been buried under a pile of vinyl records. The little plastic pieces were all chipped, the button springs were warped—totally a relic of neglect. I had to sand the gears smooth, clean every dust mote, replace the springs with ones from a spare part shop, and then test it on a vintage motherboard to make sure the “Jump” button still worked. The thrill was in watching that pixelated sprite finally dance again, knowing the machine that powered it was once forgotten. If you can’t resist, take a photo of the fossil, give it a good clean, and maybe jot down any markings. Who knows—future paleontologists might thank you for preserving a mystery!
