Forums - Gaming Discussion - I finally caught up with you guys and bought a new console!

After wanting one for a long, long time I finally bit the bullet recently and decided i'd buy one, the trouble is, all of the stores in my area were sold out! :(
Anyway on the way back from the airport this evening I stopped by my local games store and asked if they had any in the back as there wasn't any out on the shelf, and she said yes!

So i handed over the money and left the store happy, can't wait to set it up and get playing!

So without further ado, here she is right after getting home!

Unboxing pics to follow!

So glad they put the whole thing inside that Xbox One box to keep the original safe from the rain!
After all, it isn't every day you find a new unused saturn! and in white, too!

For those wondering, it cost $15.



That was awesome :). It looks to be in great condition as well, want tips on games to get?



You saved so much money on this, you should buy and put some Halo 5 in there.

The box is a little rough here and there but the console itself has never actually been used, there's not a blemish on it and the rubber feet still have their protective clear covers over the black rubber from new!

Virtual On
Sonic R
Die Hard Trilogy
Metal Slug
Marvel vs Street Fighter
Langrisser IV
Puyo Puyo 2
Vampire Hunter Darkstalkers Revenge

Might have one or two that I don't have sat next to me right now too, but if you have any other suggestions by all means post em.

That's actually pretty sick, and for $15, that's quite a steal.

Typical, first day back from a business trip and hes buying consoles.



What a beauty.

Congrats!

It took me way too long to figure out why weren't an Xbox One in the box. And even then I had to read OP's message to confirm it.

 

Congrats on your purchase, though!



Oh the trolls! Well played sir. How is it even possible to find a new Saturn? That is crazy. It's a nice looking console. Dare I say it, it almost has a more modern look than the Xb one. Though to be fair I think part of the design approach for Xb one was retro.

The jig was kind of up with the Xb one box though, that was rather an old bundle Titanfall + Kinect Rivals and a Kinect.
