"Sega do what Nintendon't", pfffft, there's no way the big N would take that lying down.. :smash:

Inspired by ebay's rarity pimps, the 16-bit console wars and collecting holy grails such as the NWC gold carts and unreleased proto's.

It took a little while to modify the SNES (old yeller') for the action shots, but everything in the photos, including the vapor stream coming from below the unit, is real. If nothing else it was fun just getting the action shots for the auction after I enabled the modifications because after only two photos and 30 seconds the room was misty due to the "thrusters" and it was getting increasingly hard to breath ^^;

Wow, just found a thread about the auction

Plus a few amusing questions from ebayers

>I no u said it floats but I want to ride it! can I do that?
>
> - sly

>does it just go for consoles or could I make it go for someone if I write
>sega on their face

>LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL I think your lying cos its not that easy to shoot
>a cat

>Hello
>
>whats wrong with you? is this what playing to many computer games does
>to people?

Me: yes.. yes it is.

(I'm still waiting for a response :( )

and one which led to a rather interesting conversation

>hi
>
>i want to bid on your auction but i've got a cat. I read how you said
>you got the console and i'm worried that if i win it will hurt my cat too.
>
>will it?

Me: I won't lie to you.. there is a chance, but only if your cat bears a
resemblance to a rival brand console. Dooes it or does it have any markings which may share some passing resemblance with a sega logo?

>no i don't think so. it's justa plain black and white cat.
>i havent seen a cat that looks like a console before. did your cat?
>
>i don't want the smeg used on my pussy :o(

Me: Not really, he was just a plain black cat, but when the NWC SNES found him he was getting busy with a really fat black female cat and I guess the unit mistook the two of them for a Mega Drive with 32X addon.. its understandable really.

Don't worry, I dont really think that the TITS or SMEG would ever turn on your pussy.

O_O :-D
