+sixersfan105 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I've got a couple of the hard to find and highly sought after Sega Genesis Model 2 consoles and Sega Game Gear systems which both were made by Majesco under license from Sega. I'm guessing if you're reading this you're already "in the know," but the Genesis Model 2 made by Majesco (MK-1451) towards the end of the Genesis' life is the "holy grail" of Model 2 systems, as it has the best video and audio encoders of any of the Model 2s. It has the fourth revision of the Model 2 motherboard, known as VA4. I can do console-only or complete in box on these. Meanwhile, the Game Gear made by Majesco is sought after because it has better quality capacitors than earlier Game Gears, a better LCD screen and also is newer overall, since they were made in 2000. Of note, this model Game Gear is incompatible with the TV Tuner (worthless now anyway) and requires a specific brand of Master System adapter if you're into that, called the Nuby Converter. Everything I sell is cleaned and tested and working. You're always able to purchase with confidence when dealing with me. Look no further than my AA feedback, which will show you I've been selling on AA for more than two years and have been an AA member for more than three years. If there's interest here, I would be happy to provide pictures and discuss pricing via PM. Otherwise, I will likely look to eBay in the coming weeks to unload these. Thanks!

+sixersfan105 Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 Still haven't gone the eBay route, so thought I'd circle back in case there's interest here before eBaying my extra Sega stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0078265317 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I already have a VA4 but thanks. Got it off ebay for 20 bucks and it works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eightbit Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I did the same. Scoured thousands of Genesis II auctions looking for the Majesco part I have found three of these doing this over the years, with the last one found a few weeks ago for $50 with two controllers, PSU, a/v and a game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0078265317 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Here is another majesco incase anyone is interested. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F174058652950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sixersfan105 Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 Kind of rude that you would link to eBay when I am offering the same product. Seems unnecessary. Also, there are often listings on eBay for MK-1451 consoles that are not as advertised, and I'm not seeing a picture in that listing showing the bottom of the console, so who knows what you're getting.

eightbit Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I wouldn't trust that auction anyway as even the PSU is not the proper one that came with a MK-1451. And I have to agree, that was quite rude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I can vouch for the Majesco GG (sorry for the mixup in pm, eightbit), if you don't want to invest in a new LCD upgrade, the Majesco is the way to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightbit Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 The majesco Genesis 2 is also fantastic. The best Genesis model to own in my own personal opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grig Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I came across a JVC X’Eye about 10 years ago at a flea market but I did not have the $65 on me to purchase it so sad times. I do not know much about this Majesco version but it sounds great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sixersfan105 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 Wow, only $65 for an X'Eye! Prices have certainly changed since 2009. Sorry you didn't snag it at the time. Hindsight is 20/20, as they say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
