Used. Tested and fully functional. The console has visible scuffs and scratches. The keyboard shows signs of yellowing due to age.Please note: The cover for the game cartridge slot and the battery compartment cover are missing.An official power adapter is included. The original box and instruction manual are not included. What We Did Before This Ships Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand. We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside. This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components. All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue. Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.) Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard. If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it. After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed. Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working. Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you. A note on power: this console uses Japan's 100V standard. Buyers in North America (120V) are advised to use a step-down transformer or a multi-voltage power supply; buyers in Europe (230V) will require a step-down transformer to use an original 100V adapter safely. A note on region: This is a Japanese MSX2 computer (e.g. Panasonic FS-A1). Most MSX software runs across all MSX2 machines regardless of region. A very small number of Japanese titles include region detection (notably the Japanese version of Metal Gear, which blocks play on non-Japanese units); conversely, some cartridges used Konami's region coding to switch between Japanese and English text rather than to block play. For a collector running only Japanese software on a Japanese unit, there are effectively no compatibility barriers. If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome.
