  1. i have a sega CDX console for sale, cartridges work just fine with it, CD games load & work but have a brief pause glitch here and there sometimes, i'm guessing that the laser may need adjusting or replacing. cosmetically i would say it is in excellent shape, really looks near mint. $325 for the console alone plus shipping in u.s., refer to pics here for condition:
  2. yeah it sounds likely that that is the meaning of the "21 84" & "22 84" and it does seem to line up with the initial 1984 test market release of the 7800. i still wonder what the "SA 0001" & "SA 0002" numbers are referring to, 1st & 2nd revision of the power supply possibly...
  3. ouch, well at least you were able to reverse the previous owners bad soldering decision. i likely won't ever be opening this one as it is in such a nice original state and works 100% so i don't want to open and thereby alter it's original condition. I've been looking around for pics of the EP 1984 7800 power supplies and mine is still the only one i have seen with the "SA 0001", as for this and the "21 84" stamp maybe @Mitch can shed some light for us on if/how these numbers equate to production dates?
  4. thanks, yeah i was very surprised to find an EP in the wild like that. yeah the power supply has "21 84" on the label & stamped on the back it has the "21 84" as well as "SA 0001". it is the first EP power supply with "SA 0001" i have seen, all of the other 1984 power supplies i have saw had "SA 0002" code stamped on the back of the power supply, did your EP happen to still have the original power supply with it if so and what was the code on it?
  5. well i can finally be added to the list, and looks like i'm in the top 10 earliest serial numbers too! i just picked up an original 1984 EP serial number 003971 i've had multiple 7800s over the years but an EP always remained elusive to me, i happened to stop in a local video game store earlier today because i had to ask the owner a question about the business that was closed next door and i instantly saw a 7800 behind the glass with a center yellow rainbow gradient and knew it was either an AT or EP so i asked if i could see it and he took it from behind the glass and handed it to me and i flipped it over and saw the EP serial number and i was stunned that it was also a low one, he gave me a solid deal on it as well. it also included both of the original "mexico" 84 controllers as well as the original 84 power supply and original 1984 copyright Pole Position.
  6. that's great to hear, i was just about to pose the question of if another run was still planned for crystal quest, i missed the first batches
  7. just trying this out on real hardware for the first time and it looks beautifully implemented graphically, more faithful to the arcade visually than the Genesis and rivaling the snes. @solo/ng @laoo have you guys been able to get any special moves/fatalites added yet? any progress updates you could give possibly? i really hope this still becomes a reality someday as a finished Lynx port!
  8. just a heads up, if you do end up trying a package forwarding service do NOT use forward2me, they took an extremely rare mint sealed vintage game i bought and repackaged it in a flimsy paper mailer with no padding/packaging materials and FedEx destroyed the package in shipping by crushing it, it was FedEx's fault for mishandling the package however if forward2me had packaged it properly it would have protected it from damage. To top it off forward2me avoided responsibility and told me they would file a damaged package claim with FedEx to blame it all on FedEx and asked me for pictures and submitted the claim and then stopped communicating or even responding to me. i have attempted contacting management with them and have gotten no response either, it has been months now and i believe either FedEx refused the claim because it was packaged so poorly or they possibly received the claim amount and kept the money.
  9. thanks for the heads up, coincidentally i just picked up a loose battlezone though locally, so i can scratch that one off unless someone has a box or CIB version
  10. looking to buy some Atari XE (XEGS) blue box games: airball, dark chambers, summer games (xegs), donkey kong (xegs), battlezone, choplifter, crystal castles, mario bros. prefer CIB or new but will consider loose as well on these thanks
  11. looking to buy an atari XE (XEGS) console preferably with keyboard, also looking for an original grey XE controller
