PC Engine Shuttle SOLD
« on: May 10, 2012, 12:26:23 PM »
This Shuttle turned out to be in much poorer condition that I had been led to believe when I bought it a while back. It's worn and there is still some dust in tight spaces after cleaning it. The expansion port cover is included. The (pictured in the lot pic, but not included) A/V cable I got with it produces a poor picture, so I'm including one of my custom cables (seen in the final pic) that produces a better picture than first party cables. The pad looks dusty, but it has been cleaned. It just looks like that, but works fine, as does the Shuttle itself. The AC adaptor is also worn. No games are included. $60 + shipping by Canada Post.

Pretty much the same system, just different shape.  I think that its not compatible with the CD systems either.

It has a nerfed expansion port, so no CD add on, no tennokoe 2, etc etc. Really just no CD add on because you can get a Shuttle specific memory device.

I've never seen one in person but it looks to be a good 80% bigger than a standard PCE.

Yeah they are huge, and feel kind of cheap compared to the solid hunk of technology that is the CoreGafx. The plastic seems to be the same but the fact that it's mostly empty makes to feel light and a bit flimsy me, it makes hollow noises when you move it, and the card port door is really cheap feeling, although they are quite cool in a weird way. And if you add the memory unit to the back the extra bit of heft makes it feel a bit more subtantial in your hand though.

As a PCE collector it's worth owning but I can kinda see why these didn't catch on. They just don't ooze quality like any other piece of NEC hardware does and it's a weird design over all.
