Model 1 SEGA Genesis "High Definition Graphics" label vs. non-hi def label version

[BlastProcessing402]

A friend of mine owns a game shop, and one of the old Genesis consoles he bought from a customer uses a different style of connection for the RF jack instead of the typical RCA. The only other time I've seen that type of jack, it was on a shitty famiclone that I bought in eastern europe.

I don't suppose you took a picture of this jack? If not, could you describe it?

I don't have any answers for you, I'm just curious.

Early Model 1's had a serial port at the back, but I am fairly sure all NTSC-U versions had an RF jack.

I don't have a pic, but I remember it was just a coaxial connection, similar to RCA, but a little bit smaller, and without the big protruding pin. I would describe it as almost like BNC, but without the locking mechanism. I'll try and get a look at it if I get a chance, but I rarely visit the old store and it may have been sold or put in storage.

So is the one without the license screen worth more? If so how much? Thanks.

Weird. Wonder if it was modded somehow.

I don't think so. The RF box had the matching cable for that connection, and it all looked legit.
