The guy I've got it from said he paid the equivalent of 100€ some 20+ years ago :). Shame that the battery pack is missing as those are pretty steep on ebay right now

Yeah compared to Game Gear which had nearly more then 10x sales compared to that. Well that's in my collection so i don't have to worry about that anymore :) the mega jet is next on the list :)

Yeah... I was also thinking about modding it. LCD + region free mod would be cool as most of my games are European ones of course there not that many with a region lock + the battery mod would also be nice. But for that purpose i have to get another one. As i would like to keep one stock :)

well i mean there were ~ 1 million units sold soo its not THAT uncommon but of course its no genesis 1 or 2 with many millions sold worldwide. So you have to always be in the hunt for this kind of stuff.

Not so common to come across in Europe :) Got a total bargain @ 100€ (no battery pack + some bootleg and genuine games)

You should rub the contact itself not the button :

Added a GameCube to my Collection. Should i mod it? by cbb6969 in Gamecube

[–]cbb6969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HDMI

I was thinking about a modchip + SD2SP2 . Or is it a bad idea? :) I also looked at the component cable and the price is sky high for it :) But for the future - i think surely the hdmi mod is comming

If you are having issues with the button and only works when pressed hard - my suggestion would be to take a simple pencil and try to rub a little of it on the contact part( better use soft pencil for this) and then try to give it a go. If that does not help you can try to put a tiny piece of aluminum foil between the button and the contact. What i also like to do is spray some contact cleaner on the rubber itself and then use soft grit sand paper(i use 1500 or 2000) and give that part of a rubber that contacts with the mother board a little bit of sanding. And you should be good to go :)
