These things are so cool. Looks like yours is in great condition. They can be a little tricky to take apart and put back together, so if you do decide to go in and remove the clock capacitor, be careful of the metal Faraday cage fins. It's easy to bend those out of alignment. And don't forget to unscrew the back DVD emulator/serial cards first. If you do part with it, anyone who buys is probably going to be comfortable with the clock cap being inside still. It's more of a collectors piece than anything. Most folks who do develop for Xbox use modified retail consoles or Xemu (Xbox emulator for PC) these days. Point being- you're more likely going to get interest from collectors as opposed to people who will use it for development. Unless you're planning on using it, I wouldn't bother opening it. Very cool kit though.

Will need to source some art for the game, will take a look around later if I get a chance. If you can link me to any then that would be a big help and I can then make a resources pack.

XCAT art added to link in first post

I'd be interested in that unit if you'd like to sell.

Just to have a virgin image is all

Wait... why? @timberland What came in the console already? What came in a box? I see that the DVD emulator is in a box, but the Serial debugger? Does the PCI card for the pc come with it? The rear port is supposed to connect to a PCI card.

I got quoted $14 AUD for shipping and $9 AUD for the parts using SLA resin. I think that's reasonable, and much cheaper than having it printed locally. I just don't know what material to select. FDM has ABS, PLA, TPU, ASA and PA12-CF, while SLA has various types of resin. I find it very confusing.

I have 4 available. Just message me a zip code and I’ll get you a price. Thank you

This was perfect and did exactly what I needed. You need to scroll down further after pressing the white controller button and the option will be there. Fixed up a few issues with games in my list particularly Gauntlet: Dark Legacy as I was having troubles with my HDD rip. Thanks again.

Hello there! I was wondering if you still had one available? If you do I would be happy to buy one.

Hi, can you please make art for the ccelestex homebrew game.

Yes. I’d love to backup the fresh drive in an unused state

Definitely make a backup of the hard disk ASAP. If you encounter any unreleased content like games or demos, then talk to the Hidden Palace, as those guys know what they do best.

That's a DVT3, nice. Don't use it for anything. Literally.

... uh, PM'd. !!!!!

Honestly, if I could find someone local that understood how rare it is and would give me a decent price I'd sell it in minute. My kid wants me to trade it for a PS5 Personally I'm torn. I've owned just about every game console ever made and wished I'd kept them all, so I'm fine just leaving this on a shelf to look at, but we have an original XBox that we will actually play and if someone else that's REALLY into collecting wants it then I'd be happy to let it go. Last thing I want to do is deal with random people on the internet though.

Give it to me, so I can finally stop procrastinating and start making Homebrew. This will be a good motivator. /s

We were working on some tools to support game development and was given this by Microsoft, but never ended up needing it. Guess they never asked for it back, dev group no longer exists, and it was put in a pile of old desks, filing cabinets, and computers. We were sorting everything and this was about to be put in a pile of old PC's that we were literally going to pay a company to properly e-waste but I pulled it out. I paid about $100 for a few things including this in an employee auction. I think we put everything we raised towards a charity, which was cool, but it's just been sitting in a box for I don't know how long now.

Very cool!

I was saying to discord that all we need now is a 3D printed case for it!

That is so incredibly badass. Are you kidding? Where did you get it?

I tested the startech case and it does work fine. I hadn't tried it yet and somebody I sold one to claimed that the board did not fit. It does, so never mind.

Depending on the price, I'm sure some ppl here would interested in buying. Myself included. No point in keeping it tucked away if you're not into it. It really all depends on what YOU want to do with it.

Don't think it was ever used. The drive/card packaging was never opened, don't think the DVD's have ever been taken out of their cases. Did plug it in and it fires up, but haven't done anything else with it. I also have an old modded XBox that has been sitting in a closet for many years, recently pulled it out to play with my kids and we started reading online about replacing the cap's in them. It still works but we'll do that soon, but then I remembered we have this thing just sitting in a box. What would you do? Sell it and let a buyer open it up and fix...open it up ourselves ASAP before those cap's kill it...do nothing? Only thing I don't think we'll do is send it back to Microsoft

It is. Just have to be patient for now.
