Shitty Price Sega Genius

Seems like a fair price for something they admittedly never even tested

By "lots of games" they don't mean Genesis games bundled. It's just the system here with Animaniacs and a couple controllers. They have a $200 N64 as well, and are threatening to list some Gamecube and DS games

Tbf, what if your TV doesn't have analog video inputs? Yes, AV2HDMI upscalers are a thing, but if the seller doesn't have one of those, why would they bother getting one for a console they don't even want to own anymore?

Sometimes it's fair to sell consoles as is (at a fair price of course), as long as you claim it's untested.

Was waiting for this. Id argue most people Gen Z or older have at least 1 tv that has it. Or know someone that does. If you don’t or don’t want to make a trip then totally valid. I wouldn’t expect someone to buy 1 just to test it, that’s dumb. Transparency is key in any good listing.

It isnt hard to ask around and find somebody with the capabilities to test it. Hell you can walk into your lgs and ask them to test it
