		I got mine for $0. I win I frequently go to this one game shop in my town (the only good one) so the owner knows me well and he just asked me if I wanted it. Needed a power cord but I just switch up with my Dc when I'm not using that. I also got alot of free SMS stuff. Free stuff rules. But man, off ebay for $4.50 is a great deal, I wish I had spotted that. But to much talk, time to join the party arty ---Ammut

Which leads me to wonder, my Saturn is a model-2 and says MK-80000A ... what could the 1 be... I know that PAL models go by the MK-8x2xx number (right?).... Oh... The confusion....

		LOL! :agree

		I think Model 2 saturns have the 'A' in their model #, whereas Model 1 Saturns don't. Or at least I'm pretty sure that's what Euro Saturns have.

		The question IS, did he really mean a model-1 Saturn, or an MK-80001 one I ment a Model 1 saturn.....just to clear up any confusion....

		No modding for you then, sir!

But, uh, when mal said "no modding for you," that was supposed to be bad news. <_< You see, to actually play backups, one needs a mod chip regardless of what model Saturn one has - but model-1 models (pardon the redundancy here) use a 20-pin cable to the CD drive, rather than a 21-pin one, and 20-pin modboards are virtually impossible to find. The swap trick is quite a bit of work from what I hear, and you'll be stuck with it unless you pick up a model-2 Saturn. Sorry to bust your party....

		Naaa, swap trick is easy on a Model 1.

Sorry to bust your party.... since the post made by Curtis, i have got shining force 3 and STHA to run without a mod......VertigoXX is right...swap trick on a Model 1 sat is easy!
