  1. For a console, controller, and power adapter- they usually start around $80 shipped. When games are included, it seems to jump up $8-10 per game. I've seen them try to creep up higher lately, but I think that is still the going price for CoreGrafx 1 or 2.
  2. The Original XBOX is just standard USB with a different connector... The electrical conversion should not be any problem, but the button/stick mapping is another story.
  3. I have one of the very large 36" Sony XBR's, but the corners are blurry compared to the center, which I think it a common problem. I think the 32" or 27" may not have this problem.
  4. X-Arcade makes nice, heavy controllers that work well. The warranty is great also. After probably 10 years, one of the wires on mine wore through and USB stopped working. They happily sent me all the guts that could be bad to replace it, and just asked that I send any unused parts back to them. That is service!
  5. You will need to repair the traces (not especially easy job). The drive will not just go into another XBOX, they are locked. Even if your XBOX is flashed and the drive is not locked, any replacement system you get likely will be. You will need to softmod it and TSOP flash if you want (I never bother, I just keep the original EEPROM and zero it out so they all match the same keys).
  6. The control panel is the same as the ones I remember from K-Mart, just the rest of the kiosk is gone...
  7. There is no simple way to test it. It's a complicated, entire computer on a board.
  8. It will already have it even in a sealed box. It's something in the glue...
  9. For DOS machines, you could try the marketplace on vogons.org. Good luck!
  10. No, you cannot. Not that it's impossible- it may or may not be. However, nobody has written the software (and ZF firmware) to do such a thing.
  11. I assume the name is just a translation issue. Would Summer Games be "Brown Circus"? Or maybe "Green Circus".
  12. I admit that I will sit down and play a bunch of games, but only through the "first man". Once I "lose a man" I will quit and play another game. Short attention span... Can't solve that.
  13. It is strange. He sold the exact same Eli's Ladder a month ago also. I guess it could have been non-paying bidder...
  14. You're sure you have good, strong, fresh batteries? When I was a kid, I used to recharge regular batteries with a little radio shack charger. It did work, but the batteries got weak and lasted less and less each time. I recall this was one side effect (the screen flicker when audio plays).
  15. This is original... Not mine, but mine is the same color.
  16. It kind of stands on it's own, mostly because of the extensive sprite hardware. It was unlike any computer of the time I suppose... Almost like an arcade game development computer. It would be like if SNK made a version of the Neo-Geo with an operating system, keyboard and mouse...
  17. They were originally orange. I have one like that...
  18. They always comes back around to some extent, but some more than others... it's a crap shoot to bet on it.
  19. It's probably just an Atarimax flash cart...
  20. Yes, or you can access them with Relax share or SMB share...
  21. It works fine. Surprisingly, these old emulators are even still updated from time to time. A lot (most) people have moved on to RetroPi, but XBOX still works fine.
  22. If you're coming from MednafenX-PCE on original XBOX, it's hard to beat that. ISO+MP3 (or WAV) and everything just works. On the PC, the main one now is Ootake. It works fine, but unlike the XBOX you have to set everything up manually.
  23. I think I know what he is asking and no, it's not the original digital audio. The analog audio is tapped into the converter... It is in the HDMI, yes, but it's from the analog output.
  24. If you don't notice, then fine - it works for you. I notice it easily when running anything higher than 480p.
