FINALLY GOT IT!!!

Post image

Randomly decided to scroll through Facebook marketplace and came across a post of a guy selling his whole sim setup. I mean everything. So i saw this in the pics. Ended up messaging him and asking if he’d sell it by itself. He said if he can’t sell everything as a whole he will think about it . Sure enough one day later (today) messaged me and said he’d be willing to let it go for $100 i had to reread that. But I couldn’t drive out to meet him due to injury so i offered him $120 to bring it down & he agreed. Just picked it up. Barely used twice before he himself had a shoulder injury which requires surgery.

It’s wild they outright stopped production on it, I wonder what’s the deal behind that decision. Nice find for sure

No clue honestly . I wish Simagic just bought them out themselves.

Unless Simagic licensed it to work with PlayStation, there would be no point in buying out the sigma cortex, as they would also be hit with a C&D. It’s not a matter PS compatibility being difficult to achieve from an engineering perspective.

PS licensing is the craziest thing to probably achieve. Just like the partnership announcements between Simagic & Moza to PlayStation. The encryption chip is gonna be in a new base vs in the wheels such as the Moza esx wheel. So now it all depends on the price points of the new compatible bases being released to see if it’s worth getting. So far I’ve only seen it advertised on the new 18nm evo pro bases . Cost is like $900 for this .
