    And a Neptune would never come with an old-style 3 button Sega controller. Yeah, it's a fake... and a bad one at that. That's not even what a Neptune looks like.

    I hate the way EBay pictures are so shiity and small. Do you have to pay extra or something to list large pictures?

    That's the biggest fail I've seen in a while Model 2 megadrive, paint it blue. It's a Neptune!

    Adding a bit more flavor to ASSEMbler's post :p

    Lol, may be it's sort of self-made stuff.

    From what I've read the Sega Neptune was never anything more than just a few prototype production models and they never had anything on the inside!

    Would be funny if it would really play 32X games though ^^
    Complete with region mod, it would actually be a cute collectors item, but not for that price.
    The cartridge slot seems to have been modified though, it has the round doors, but a rectangular cutout - that's typical for homemade cartridge mods due to the different shape of them.

    I wouldn't mind a home-made region free Neptune. But, like said, not for that price.

    ^
    this

    He says in the description that the Neptune never made it into mass production, so it's fairly honest. Buying a self-made custom console for 1000 Euro though, that's a joke. I think it would go into three digits though if he listed it with a 1€ starting bid. It looks rather nice for a custom job, it's flat and if can really play 32X games it would be an interesting bit of a kit.

    It's pretty clear from looking at the auction (I can't read French either) that he's selling a custom modified system. Afterall, the region switch on the side wouldn't be on any real system. I don't think there is anything wrong with this, he just wants entirely too much money for it.

    And also, it looks half-assed. Can't actually play 32X either :)
