Hello all,

I've put up a boxed and almost mint Mega Drive 3 for auction @ eBay, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...=2042.... Happy bidding

Oh and btw, the auction says that shipping is on me when you use "Buy Now", that's only within The Netherlands

WTF!!! it's bulit into the controler?!?

can you get 2ply option and how would that work on games like Street's of rage or zombies?

100 EUR!? Your kidding right!?!

You can get loads of diffrent (Or exact same) pirate clone MD units from HK at a tiny fraction of that price. Not to mention that particular clone does not allow for carts or expantions. All it has is a few games built in and thats it. For that price, I could easily get a Sampo DVD player which doubles as a MD system and can load game roms directly from a CD-R.

I think you're missing some info. This is an official Sega licensed product to start, not one of those HK rip-offs. And indeed, you can only play the included 8 games, you can't play with 2 players, so for the gamer, it's not worth the money. But hey, a gamer isn't gonna buy this baby anyway. It's purely a collector's item. Why? It's one of the few machines, not produced by Sega, but still officially licensed to play Mega Drive games, and even to wear the name "Mega Drive". Only a small amount have been made of these, and believe me, there are more collector's who'd want one of these, than there are Mega Drive 3's. Actually Eur 100 isn't that much (but hey, since it's summer, not much action @ eBay or internet as a whole, I thought let's sell it cheap). In the winter, or at Sega conventions, this one goes for Eur 200 or more easily. Especially in this state, boxed, complete, and as new.

Oh and besides, it's not an emulator like that DVD player, it's a real Mega Drive.
