Hey guys, now I'm preparing to move, I have some final bits I'd like to shift that I won't be able to leave behind.

With that in mind I'm selling my project Megadrive. It is an original PAL model with the High Definition text around the top and has been modded with PAL / NTSC 50 / 60Hz switches to the rear. The holes have been poorly cut but are not particularly bad looking unless you inspect the switch area. (I will add some pics soon).

Included is a regular pad, an official Sega 6 button pad, PSU and a sought after RGB Scart for the best experience. I can also include a standard Sega RF cable.

With the Megadrive I will include Altered Beast as it is the game that came with it as pictured on the box. I will also throw in Bare Knuckle (Jap version of Streets of Rage, which is famous for translating its text on the fly when you mess with the 50/60Hz switch on modded Megadrives).

Asking £55 + postage @ cost for this awesome package.


Thanks guys. :thumbsup:
 
Here we are, flipped it around on the second pic so you can see the reverse side.

The only other altered beast box I've seen is the NTSC (US) one which is admittedly a bit nicer.

Will get some pics of the system done as soon as I can dig it out, not quite sure where it is at the moment, it's tucked away in a drawer somewhere as I've not used it in a few months.

Found it! :lol:

Uploading pics now...
 
Here we are... :D

Sorry about the quality, only have iPad to take them with.

Just noticed the marker pen is still on it where I measured the switches. Can remove that quite easily if necessary.

Pics are uploading to dropbox now. Will post in a sec... :thumbsup:
 
My TV being a Samsung LCD, I have the much documented issue with the vertical lines on the picture. They don't show up on the images though as they're extremely feint. This is no fault of the cable or the console, more of modern technology.


Okay, the first 4 are without RGB mode, so normal composite through the same cable, but on a non RGB input (Composite scart input on my TV) and the other lot of images are in RGB mode, from the RGB input on my TV just to show the difference. :thumbsup:

The iPad doesn't have the best cam so they're all slightly out of focus but the differences can still clearly be seen. If yoi compare the 3rd one with the 7th, they're almost the same shot. 3 is composite, 7 is RGB. The difference can clearly be seen :thumbsup:

I also switched between Jap and US modes to show the region switching in action while the game was on :lol: This can be seen by the text changing from Eng to Jap and back on some of the pics.

That is great:thumbsup:

Declare interest as I need check if i have enough moneys on pay pal :)
 
Hmm, unsure who's first in line... Nicholas said he was interested IF it has the right box... was that a clear enough interest? Is it the right box? :unsure:

Trinity... I mean mods... Help!? :lol:

I'm inclined to say Nicholas pending his judgement of the box, but opinions would be welcomed.

WELL nick say his own words -"does this come with the altered beast box? I'm INTERESTED if it does, and would relish some photos" :)

You should send him PM to know what Happening!

he come first then take it from there :)
 
Okay sounds good. Just with all the rules discussions lately I was a bit iffy as to whether that was too ambiguous. Conditional interests can be touchy things. :lol:

Thanks AF! :thumbsup:

So you see - you don't always need a Mods help :thumbsup:

Dave G :cool:
 
Hiya, I don't want to be greedy, so if Amiga Forever wants it then please let him have it. If not then I'm definitely interested and will jump at the chance to buy it.
 
You declared interest first, so you're first in line. Sorry for the confusion :lol:


Sending PM...
 
Nicholas hasnt withdrawn interest after all, just want needing insured next day postage :lol: My bad.
