[@leemackenzie549]

So amazing to see a brand new one. Your very lucky it boots as those old units have a capacitor that's used to keep the real time clock and they are well known to leak and damage the board, I 3 og xbox's and they all have failed capacitors in them, im in the process of cleaning and repairing the damage on the boards. Have to admit I nearly cried when you cut the seal on the box.

[@breeseburger]

Back then, I was into next gen technology like any typical kid, but when the 1st lockdown happened, it hit me. I was filled with nostalgia and I couldn't stop getting into it more and more. So in Thursday 15th October 2020, I got my first PlayStation 1 games, Spyro the Dragon and Gran Turismo 2. A couple months back I went in my loft and got my mother's N64 and Sega Dreamcast. That's when it really kicked in, as it was not working I restored them and boy did they change me. Sure I got emulators like Dolphin, Project64, PS2 etc but this really hit me. I now prefer 1980s- 90s way more than nowadays. You guys got the best consoles. I do have an Xbox 360 so I can play Xbox games luckily.

It's PAL anyway, so not nearly as valuable as this NTSC unit. Who, in their rightful mind, would prefer 25fps (sometimes with stretched audio, even) over 30? Because of this, the moment you break factory seals on a PAL console, you reduce its value to pocket change.

[@rickbelisle4080]

Technically that console is only 15 years old or so because Forza Motorsport came out in 2005 so it could be 16 years old but definitely not 20. I bought mine 20 years ago with the Duke controller it's massive but it's awesome. You got yourself a great system and if I were you I would not open the three games because they're pretty valuable when they're sealed but that's up to you thanks for the great content

You probably know this but there's possibly a leaky clock cap inside that should be removed before it eats away the motherboard. Awesome video never seen a sealed one

[@Eagles.Fan.Since.Super.Bowl.52]

I bet that bonus game on the front of the box is a sticker. They just threw that game into an already existing 2 game bundle. It's a lot cheaper for them to add a sticker to the box rather than redoing the artwork for the box. Not to mention they probably had a large amount of the 2 game bundles sitting in a warehouse ready to go.

Extra lucky, you got a Hitachi drive, which was considered the best DVD drive in the Xbox.

I agree with u. Hitachi drive while it’s a rare drive, it’s generally considered to be the most reliable, I heard many people back in the day they said Samsung Drives are the best, but sadly I have pretty bad experiences with Samsung drives for some reason and can’t find a good working one. For some reason I thought I had better luck with the newer Phillips Drives (2003-2005 ones). I would say the hitachi drives and the Phillips drives had the least chances of failure rate and are pretty reliable DVD drives for the OG Xbox.

I would recommend removing the clock capacitor if it isn’t a 1.6 model. The capacitor could have already leaked if not it’s only a matter of time before it does and it could ruin the console.
