For some reason I find myself winning minimum bid auctions for dirty ass consoles don’t drink and bid online kids.
Today’s installment is a model 1 Genesis. I still have my model 1 Genesis I got for my birthday 25 years ago next month. So yeah, why did I buy this? See blurred spoiler above. High Definition Graphics also play into this, so I tell myself.
As received, yum. It was listed as ‘for parts/repair.’ The connector/pcb for the psu had broken off inside so they couldn’t test it.
Mostly cleaned on the outside, could use a polish or eight and a volume knob. No pics of the inside but it wasn’t too bad (not like my og xbox that was a roach infested dust hole if anyone recalls the joys of that from gaf). I still need to clean out the cart slot and remount the power supply connector/pcb.
After fumbling around confused and not understanding why the power cord didn’t fit, I realized I was trying to use my Game Gear power cord, ffs.
With that sorted, RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!
Scores are cool and all, but fuck y’all I beat the game! (lol, this is my og note in the back of the manual from 1993, beat it twice on the same day folks, lol):
