Yes, I would rather go eBay than waiting for a rare find locally. But it also means very not cheap

I used to want to own those consoles you mentioned. But I gave up because I can't find repair support locally.

Buy from eBay, when the console die then buy again.

go to cash converters. maybe if you are lucky you can find it there.

i thought cash converters was a store localised in aus? didnt know they had one here in msia?

SS2 has one iirc. Sunway has another one, and Bukit Tinggi Klang has one more. I think there's more, too.

i have a megadrive unit...but not sure working properly or not...

got streetfighter game left...interested?

there is a shop in bintulu centre point that sell some of that consoles...

seriously..

Inside forum also got people sell. Try looking.

Cash converter? Hard to get. And kinda untrusted as they don't know whether its faulty or not.

IMHO, there are a few members in LYN that resides/sell stuff directly from japan and ship them back to KL. you should contact them - check the toys thread .

japan has a lot of video game stores that sells all these old machines. just be prepared to shell out $$$$ . dont expect to get them cheap. all these vintage consoles are in mint condition (original box, cables, manual)

lowyat and ebay is the main option... I remember nearby retailer in wansamaju got that was last year la now donno still got or not

I still own Mega Drive. PM me if you interest on it.

I saw there's tons of new Megadrive boxes in one gameshop in Atria Kompleks, Damansara Jaya....not sure if there's console inside or just empty boxes though. But it looks like new.

Saw a few MD boxes in Mydin Mall USJ. Thinking of grabbing one myself even though my Genesis clone is still working okay.

All those MegaDrive consoles are China clones, just like the old Micro Genius NES/FamiCom clones.

Interesting. Those I've seen have pretty convincing boxes, which iirc even have the Sega logo.

I bought five megadrive cartridges from ebay, all totaling to more than RM600....that should give you a picture how expensive it is. I'm very confident if I want to re-sell them in lowyat, it would not be more than RM20 each.

?
What games did you buy?

hehe, quite embarrassed to tell, all of them are Sonic games plus Bare Knuckle 2 and 3

NILAI 3 got Playstation PSX....heheheh

Izit new in box? Old model with parallel port?

Searching for one up and down. Sent my old PS1 slim to a shop to repair S-Video port, not only did the shop I sent the thing to didn't repair it, they broke the PS1's drive in the process as well

correct, malaysian just want cheap...
most of us dont care how RARE for the item!

Or even compare price between pirated and originals and think they are both the same anyway so why have to pay more? But instead of getting the pirated they want the originals to drop in price

Look carefully.

The print quality on the boxes look very cheap just like the ones on those fake Memory Stick Pro Duos.

Also, I had a chance to test one out and apparently some of the models have BUILT-IN GAMES.

That should set off some sort of alarm bells....

Added on March 5, 2010, 3:03 pmAhh no wonder the total came up to over RM600. Bare Knuckle 2 and 3 are priced quite high even as used cartridges.

Maybe because the Japanese Bare Knuckle did not censor the characters....

Nice to know some Mega Drive loving is in place.

Post the pics up over at Golden Oldies!

Wow, that bad?

They are really out to get at collectors now, huh?

I was hoping it was someone found a stash of unsold Megadrives in a warehouse somewhere.

Ah well. I should probably be thankful that my "Super Creation" is still working, although I still want to get a real Megadrive someday.

LOL, GamersFamilia is pulling your leg.....

Seriously, if you really want to buy a retro console, the best and safest would be to buy from a Japanese ebay seller that speaks and writes decent English and sends to Malaysia via EMS.

That is how I managed to buy my Dreamcast and Hyakushiki PS2.

Working Mega Drives and PS1s are still abundant in Japan....

Ok, thanks for the advice. I already managed to get a replacement PSOne tho. Some guy selling surplus units from UK. Everything new in box and still in wrapping. Problem is, it's the PAL version, so I'll need to work on that Will take your advice for the MegaDrive tho.

eBay Japan seems to be just a portal to other eBay tho, and my experience shows that no one on Yahoo Auctions Japan will ship out of Japan.

Actually the regular ebay.com has a few retro game sellers from Japan that do ship to Malaysia.

Try these guys:

Hit-Japan

PaletWeb

Yamatoku

I have bought tons of retro items from each of them.

eBay is the most likely place you will find any of those consoles. But it'll definitely cost a lot.

Yeah. Thing is, I'm a bit picky and prefer New In Box. Hence hoping someone found a unsold cache somewhere

You want brand new in box?

Prepare to pay the price....

Brand New Sega Mega Drive

Brand New Sega Dreamcast

Good luck

Yeah, I'm aware. US$335 for NIB first-gen PS1. Luckily my NIB PSOne slim only cost me some 39.90 pound - some RM 240, half the price of my PSOne slim when I first bought it.

I own an SNES with Street Fighter 2, Secret of Mana, Mortal Kombat, Star Fox (I think - gotta recheck). It also has a Wildcard disk system that utilizes mini floppy disk to store games.

Interested?

interested in secret of mana and star fox if they r original snes ver c/w manual and box.

do you guys know where to fix old psx consoles? i think my "laser reader" is spoilt lol
i still very much love my old games
mgs, ff, crash bandicoot, parasite eve haha
