Ah OK, interesting. It which case who knows although the place in question didn't do any imports, however I distinctly remember the Genesis branding.

The PAL version (if you can call it that) was Genesis branding with the Genesis cartridge inside, they just included an extra manual in German. So you either rented a standard Genesis version or the German manual was removed.
Either way the game is kicking my ass.

haha
yeah not bad price, I put around £80 on it
the other one was also less than what my bid was which was £160 or so
I think ive done ok so far, im quite hopeful I can get my money back if needed
On another note, i swear my snes is getting more yellowed even though i have one of those grey carry cases, like someone posted a bit ago, which i keep it in
Is it near anything warm?
I hear the heat can cause it.

Not really, keep it in the bottom of my wardrobe and never really have my radiator on.I like it dark and cold lol.TBH it could just be me remembering what it looked like wrongly as i dont get it out that often.
That all sounded a bit wrong lol

I now wish I put another bid on it, that went cheaper than I was expecting

Nice, from a charity shop ?
Gave a few quid to Cancer Research UK on lunch break today
Both immaculate and complete
Good find
Found a working Commodore C64C complete and working with a power supply, tv cable and Quickshot style jopypad for £50. I think I might go for it.
Casing is a bit yellowed as is the keypads but nothing a deep clean can't fix. I missed mine as a child so will probably be buying it.
I've heard I need a RCA cable or similar? one big circular pronged cable leading into 3 different coloured cables. The name escapes me.
Being used on a HDTV or do I need a different cable altogether?
