It wouldn't be too hard to make a little Sega stencil. There would be parts that wouldn't look right, but it could be done. The major giveaway I'd look for is the "Compatible with Windows CE" thing.Macabre wrote:Ah another quick way to see if its a legit system, is all original / official systems have the small SEGA logo stamped over the controller ports. Even rare japanese systems (like the color runs, the Sakura system, R7's, etc) have this.
Those custom clear shells and most paint modd'ers don't include this. The modder would have to go quite a bit above and beyond to make that stencil/sticker for the system.

I recently tried the buy-sell video game thing using eBay as a starter place to make a mock up standard of what it might be like to live off of of sales of used video games. You have to rely on pure luck to get a decent income.
I still like the idea of opening up my own game shop although... Oh I'll dream for ever.
