i was cleaning up my MAC today and a came across a picture of a system i had traded to a guy to get my Turbo Duo like 5ish years ago :)

I got this from a guy i know at work, this Genny model 1 with a floppy drive backup.... it looked so fucked i had to have it.!!!
This backup was some Japanese item he some how managed to get for his kids to backup blockbuster genny rentals back in the day.:P
The backup still worked perfectly recording carts onto a floppy and then playing them back. He gave me a dirty stack of games as well that all worked!
Anyway thought i would share, Have not seen another 1 of these for a genny and it made me smile when i saw it again.... such an odd looking genesis add on but it worked and served a purpose back in the day.
i was going to keep it but the duo is hot sex to me and i could not resist the trade when it came up.
Sweet. It's like Darth Vader's chest plate is humping a Genny. 8)
I've never seen that before. Awesome.
Sparky, you should have kept that badboy and bought a DUO a few months later, with cold, hard $$$.
:)
That's pretty darn cool. I can't make out what it says on the top of the box. Does it say Mega Disk?
Mega Disk or Sega Disk. lol. those backup station sure all were hillarious.
old game hardware: awesome
pirate hardware: also awesome
old pirate hardware: Awesome^2?
Sparky, that is AWESOME. And you traded that away!?!? Man, I would have just kept it (and saved up for a Duo).
I've never seen anything like that before. Man, a floppy on a Gen. Crazy.
