Heart almost stopped when I saw it sitting next to a stack of DVD players, assumed it was an X, but nope, AVS, and modded, also has a UNIbios which I didnt know til I had a friend help me test it, and now starts the deep hole of getting controllers and some carts, my wallet is not happy about this find lol.

Very nice! Things like this, the rarer CDi models, and things like the 3D0 are why I always check the DVD player and VCR sections. A dream come true, congrats!

Wow $4 and already updated too. My suggestion unless you feel the need to really abuse yourself is simple and has an expense but far less than the hellish prices of most the AES library. Get one of those magickey devices so you can use MVS, then get the latest release of the 161in1 cart out now that doesn't have the hosed up audio on some games. Then take your unibios out, ship it off over to Razoola and pay the upgrade fee for V4. He added a lot of nice upgrades to that version but also specfically added a bit loving hug to the 161 as it has it's own special menu installed into the unibios. It filters out all the trash hacks and other garbage, leaves just a pure list of original games aside from a couple titles that only got hacks (like SNK vs Capcom.) It basically turns your system into like a 96 or so slot MVS cabinet with easy game switching and other features.

Incredible! How the hell does that even happen? Only an enthusiast would do a video mod or a UNI BIOS mod. The owner of that knew what it was worth. Keep that price tag on there.

Buy the everdrive and be done! Currently out of stock but keep an eye out.

Did anyone notice the price sticker has some lifting in the corners?! Are you being honest about what you paid for this?

Yes, this is what I paid, found it on my way to work so it was in my backpack most of the day, sticker was almost torn off by the time I got home and got it out, found it at a chain called St.Vincents, here is seattle if its not nintendo they dont care, I'v found a number of longbox Sega CD and even a few 3DO games there over the years.

And Ill most likely be looking into the everdrives, but I really want some real carts too, Ill check out that other bios guy too once I get my first cart in the mail and can se exactly what mine can do, only got to mess around with it for a few mins at a friends place, was able to change the region, MVS difficulty and lives and stuff.
