Did I get a deal?

Post by Spyke »

Hi all,

Bit excited as I finally purchased a Jp Xbox 360 console!

It's a Jasper 2008 version, comes with Uk compatible power brick, 2x20GB hard drives, Component cable, VGA cable (it's HDMI compatible and I have one of those cables already) and a joypad. Getting it all for £130 - is that a good deal?

I mean, I've seen them go a lot more than that with fewer accessories, so I'm pretty pleased so far anyway. :)

Looking forward to investing in some Jp region shmups now! First one should be...?

Handhelds: DS-Lite - DSi XL
I want to eject...

It's an okay deal I guess.

Mushi Futari is region free though so..

Yep I have that already so at least I'll have that to test the system.

Will I be able to swap my broadband wifi adapter over between my PAL and Jp machines when I want, or will I have to get a separate one for the new machine?

As always (bar Dreamcast light guns?) you can exchange accessories across regions yes.

The Microsoft Wireless Speed Wheel will work just fine on a JPN region 360 console as well. It works well with the full game d/l of Sega's Daytona USA off of the XBox Marketplace indeed (although it'd be better to have a dedicated 360-based force-feedback steering wheel + gas and brake pedal combo deal for that extra bit of realism in the end with the usual 360 racing games on hand).
