After the failed attempt at video output I have to polish my image a bit I think ^^

It's working fine

BYAH! Excellent.

Once I get mmy MVS, I think I'm going to be very uncreative and put it in an old VCR.

i just saw "cartridge input" on the saturn cover, looked over to my mvs and thought "you bet!" :110:

for all saturn lovers: the saturn was defective anyway (it is the one ave got the optical block from).

well...atleast you used a jamma harness and didn't solder straight onto the port

*edit*

here's my amazing case

:P

yeah, everything can be taken apart completely again.

your case is the more functional approach :dance:

yeah it's just a cheap thing to keep it safe from spilled drinks or whatever when hooking it up to my supergun

poor saturn

i know, it's against nature. snk inside sega. :lol:

but i saved the case from the trash.

- the cd door hinges were broken, parts missing (the door didn't open if you pushed the button)

- the battery cover was missing

- the powersupply was burnt

etc.

it would have been more expensive to get spare parts than buying another used saturn.

I like the hinges in the back -- are those for cabinets?
Looks like they should hold up over repeated openings.

yep, they are door hinges.
i took the springs out though because they were WAY too strong.

Puzzle Bobble and Metal Slug 2 are both present - both superb titles and very addictive.

Did I see a couple of fighting carts in that stack too? The image was just slightly blurry.

I love samurai showdown 4. Only problem is none of my friends want to play it with me

I have nothing against snk hardware in a sega case. The only thing that sucks is I love the saturn but if what you say is true then this was probably for the best

Poor Saturn indeed, but it did sound a bit far gone. A novel use for it, certainly ;-)

Interesting project. First time I have ever seen a side loader in a clamshell style enclosure, looks cool. Are you planning to mount the power socket and switch in the future or just leave them hanging out?

that is just temporary, i will install a proper socket and switch when i come around to it.

Sweet mod, very cool. Clam Shell idea is great.

I generally think it's sad, when people take good classic consoles apart to mod them. But hey, if it was scrap anyway, this is definately cool;-)

I think that looks pretty cool.

I'm undecided as to what I'm going to put my MVS into. Perhaps a fat PS2 would work well.

Sadly this gets almost no playtime anymore since I have two cabs now.

What a waste, maybe I should sell it. Then again, if I move houses in a few months and have to get rid of the cabs I may need this again.
