Title: PC Engine Shuttle
Post by: pc_kwajalein on July 30, 2014, 06:24:39 AM: I have been obsessed with the Shuttle lately (again). I've owned a Core Grafx II for quite some time now, but originally it was my intention to get a Shuttle first. One never surfaced for me so I ended up with my CG2, but the desire still manifests itself. For you Shuttle owners, when did you get your Shuttle and how was the availability at the time?

I saw a loose one on eBay at a reasonable price, so I bought it

I never could find one CIB for a decent price when I looked for them. I was (and still am) big on consoles CIB. What would be a good price for one? I've seen the JPN seller prices, and the shipping is quite considerable.

Post by: majors on August 08, 2014, 02:20:54 AM: Forum member had 3 loose Shuttles few years ago that I picked one up from. It was loose loose, no pad, A/V or wall wart. Plus I was told it had a sold solder issues on the control port so it was discounted BUT it still had the card slot cover, and that is gold IMO. I managed to find a pad on ebay and procured power and A/V cables through other means. Controller port issue was simple enough to fix. Definitely a niche console, true obeyers need only apply.
