Unboxing My XBox Classic - Did I Pay Too Much?
I recently decided to buy a Xbox Classic. It finally arrived, so let's take a look at it! I power it up, play some games and take a look inside to determine how badly the console was ruined due to the capacitor plague.

      Exactly. Unfortunately those drives become weaker and weaker and repairing those is nearly impossible. It's just awesome having all "digital backups" on the HDD.

    I've been trying to decide about buying one also. I've always wanted one since way back, but never did buy a good used one as I was just buying old PS and I got a GameCube real cheap new many years ago, but now im looking at finally buying an Xbox classic. There's loads of them available and actually cheaper than when I was going to buy one 15 yrs ago. Lol Although im now looking into emulation devices that have thousands of multiple console platforms games so I'm if I want to just invest into that instead of just a xbox.

    • @homeforobsoletetechnology
      @homeforobsoletetechnology 2 месяца назад

      If I were your, I'd definitely buy one. Those are still quite cheap, but I'm sure the prices will explode eventually. And you can just watch a video showing every single game and write down every game that interests you. I think you know what you can do then :D. Still the GameCube is an awesome console. I still have mine and use it ever so often.

    Simple yet pretty cool idea. I love when retro machines become useful. Also I never saw compaq portable 3 clone before, interesting. One thing I needed to mention is; I think you should put flashing lights warning before showing the crt's. It can be dangerous to people with epilepsy.

    The blue tube looks like an x-ray tube. You can tell by how the anode is angled so the eletrons smash into it and release an x-ray in the direction the anode is angled. Also the red bank of capacitors looks like a pretty big voltage doubler. Probably for driving the x-ray tube since they need around 70KVs. Awsome video! ❤
