The deal with my Saturn is that there's no CD lid because the Saturn was once used for swapping, but later I purchase a mod-chip and the swapping thing wasn't needed anymore. I removed the CD lid so the freaking lid won't interfered when I'm swaping. The system still plays fine, except there's no CD lid. If you want to play a game, just put the CD in, POWER on and it'll load. Also there's no lid for the cartridge slot, but the cartridge slot still works.
Also I must talk about the mod-chip. I installed the mod-chip by tape! I didn't solder it, I just used some black tape and it works just fine. As long as the wires are touching the places that they should, the mod-chip will be able to work. I tape it good so the wires won't move around and such. I did the mod-chip installation around early this year.
I wish I was able to take a photo of my Saturn, but I'm not able to because I don't have anything to take photos with.
If I want to sell it, it'll be this:
* Model 2 Sega Saturn Modded for backup games (No CD lid or cartridge slot lid, but the system and the cartirdge slot works perfectly fine)
* All hookups (Power Cable, AV Cable)
* One controller (Orginal Model 1 US Controller)
Everything still works, but just missing the CD lid and the cartridge lid. I'm thinking about selling it because I want to purchase a Japanese Saturn. All the games that I want to buy are all Japanese so it's a waste to have a American system that plays burn games (and I don't trust the Action Replays).
If you were looking for a modded Saturn, how much you would offer me? This is not a selling thread, I just want to know your input.
Thanks.
