0078265317 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 On ebay 19 bucks. A bit much but not bad. The used 2 port I got off ebay was missing the door. Just a piece of broken off hinge was there. I took it out and popped in this used one from ebay. Now my used 2 port from ebay is complete. How does it look? http://mvvg.blogspot.com/2020/02/5200-door.html?m=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ave1 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Looking great. Nice find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Looks to be the glossy non textured cover common on the earlier 4-port units? I think all the 2-port units originally had a textured cover just like the front part of the console over the controller ports. I prefer the glossy one in looks but it is a fingerprint and scratch magnet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not shiny and almost see through like my 4 port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+-^CrossBow^- Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Oh I knew this. Was just checking. I've seen later made 4 port units that used the textured plastics and I think all the 2 port models have textured. I was just stating I prefer the glossy non textured 4 port units myself. Eitherway the 5200 is still one of the best looking console designs ever made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I have one of the early 4-ports with the smooth plastic, it looks nice at just the right angle but otherwise you tell it's littered with scratches. It being in a flood before I owned it certainly didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
