... That's really odd... You'd think Sega would have chosen a different name if a company named Jet Set was already making radios....

 

I'll bet you anything that the head designer of Jet Set Radio probably had a radio like that in his home when he was young, and it was possibly the inspiration for the game..

 

hens the title Jet Grind Radio in north america..

 

I don't know, I guess it could be real, but with the dull and scratched jewel and the fact that it comes with a green s controller and not a duke makes me a little suspicious. Doesn't seem like too much work depending on how much money you could get out of a forgery.

Anyway, here are acouple more things:

NES Demostration Unit

You have got to be kidding me... That's the worst "fake" devkit i've ever seen. "As with all debuggers, you must hit reset with game in tray to boot". What kind of lousey mod chip did they put in there? I've never heard of that before. Even with a solderless mod you just hold the eject button. I hope i don't have to say it here, but don't bid on this... He should have at least wrote "TEST" on the side of it with a blue sharpie or something... put some effort into it next time!

 

whats even more obvious is he wont show the top of the unit, which would say test of course.

 

What is this exactly? I mean, official name and year? Looks younger than an M82.
I need these information for a work that I am doing.
Thanks!

Ebay links go into the ebay thread!

 

????

Well, this IS the ebay thread!

 

Yeah it is since i joined the two topics together. (the jet set radio one)

 

Sounds like Neo-Magic 1.2 mod in there. Granted with my unit, need to hold the reset button to disable the chip to go online. Never the less the guy is a toolbox

 

DMS3 also uses this, though seeing the price of em, Id assume its a cheap-o magic 3.1 or something.

 

Only has a small not a large green controller as the launch teams ones had

Does look like a bad mod...almost a do it yourself.....

Would someone have given it to a pawn shop? but then only green US machines were the Halo ones weren`t they?

 

Yeah, the only green NTSC xboxes were the halos, the debugs, and the other launch xbox... I don't see someone converting a debug or a different launch box. My guess is this thing is real.

This is an odd auction, somone want to get in on this? Xbox 360 developer's laptop, tools included...

That's a pretty cool auction PA. The software alone must be worth a bundle.

 

I have seen that auction, but something smells really fishy about it. I am thinking stolen laptop.

 

I doubt the laptop will come with such tools. Its probably stolen and was probably an artist's laptop, judging by the software he will give if ypu buy it noe. Don't buy it thinking you will get xbox 360 software. Buy it for the cheap hardware.

 

That's exactly what it is. I sent him a question and he said he was an artist and can't bundle any dev software with it...

He said he has to delete anything related to the game he helped to develop.
