Hello everyone!
It has been quite a time for me in the last few years. Life hit me pretty hard leading me to sell my entire collection and I dropped off the map. After some reflection and thought I am slowly dipping my toes back into collecting starting with my favorite system and maybe branching out from there.
Yesterday I came across a post on Facebook marketplace that seemed to be a positive omen for my desire to get back into the collecting scene. I reached out to the lady and was able to secure this beauty for what I thought was a great price.
Got it sort of working...it has a couple bulbs that are burned out, and it came with a modded console that shuts off after 30 seconds. Not sure why. I still need to drill out the tubular locks and replace them as they didn't have a key. Also need to get some replacement controllers to swap out since the ones on there are trashed.
Lady I got it from said her nephew worked at Best Buy back in the day and saved it from being sent back/scrapped, took it to her house, and it's been there ever since. I should also add this thing is probably 7ft tall and weighs like 300lbs. I was by myself with a hand truck and this was on the second floor of this lady's house. I took it one step at a time and scooted my butt down each stair trying not to drop this thing as it went down each step. By far the heaviest gaming item I have owned, and I previously owned the other version of the Xbox kiosk when I lived in AZ.
My question is, does anyone have this version and can help me understand the function/setup of the wires in the kiosk/ how to get the reset button to work? Or why the Xbox shuts off so quickly? Thanks in advance.
