So I finally caved in and bought an AES, I did the unthinkable and bought it via eBay but it sold for $250.00 plus four games so I thought the price was pretty good.
The issue I have is when I hook it up I can hear the music playing but I get no picture. I did clean the cartridges and pins thoroughly so I know that's not the issue. I know it's not the TV as I tried it with my Famicom and Neo Geo CD and they worked perfectly. I also hooked it up via a Sega Genesis AV cable and ended up with the same results.
I'm about to take the console apart to give it a good cleaning but does anyone else know of anything I could do? The seller did show pictures of the title screens of all four games so I know it was working at the time he put the auction up. I would rather not have to send it back if possible as he's in Japan and return shipping not to mention the extra time involved is more than I want to deal with right now.
Thanks
