Hi all, my new Skeleton Saturn has arrived and I'm making that one my personal system so am offloading this one.

It is a grey model 1 with blue oval buttons.

It is switchless modded so will play original games from any region by holding the reset to switch.

Green - EURO PAL 50HZ
Orange - US NTSC 60HZ
RED - JAP NTSC 60hz

There is no modchip installed so it will not play backups. A modchip can be installed quite easily.

As it's a Japanese machine it runs at 110v so a step down transformer is required to use the console.

Will come with a black official controller (I never had a grey one), 2 pin power cable, step down converter, AV cable (red/yellow/white) and console. No games are included.

The downside to this console is the open/closed switch for the lid was broken when I restored the machine to working order. As such it didn't recognise any discs. I had to remove the lid switch and I used a jumper to make the machine believe the lid is permanently closed. As such the discs will spin even with the lid open. It means you need to put your disc in and then turn the console off and back on for it to read. The contacts can of course be wired to a switch and mounted into the case but I didn't want to make any modification to the case.

Also the access LEDs do not work, I believe they are just dead LEDs but I haven't checked this. It doesn't affect the working of the machine though.

Lastly, since the machine is supplied with an AV cable it will play in colour when using US or Japanese NTSC modes but displays in black and white when using PAL (pics below are colour cause I used my rgb cable for photos) This can solved by purchasing an RGB scart cable.

You will also need a new cr2032 battery as it's dead.

I am asking £30 plus p&p for this machine
