Hi guys,
I found a Goldstar 3do at my local dump. The controller with it is a Logitech controller that was packed in with the 3DO graphic card for the pc. Too bad the kid didnt drop that off as well. Anyway, the goldstar has a sticker on the bottom that saids "'Refurbished". I guess this kid had a problem and got his unit refurbed.
The goldstar is one of the ugliest game consoles I have ever seen. It looks like a campy vcr. This is the first game console I have thought about paint modding or case modding because it looks terrible.
I tested the console with dreamware, everything works fine. At first I thought the unit was broken because the the cd tray floped out of the front when I was carrying it, but I later read goldstars are so badly made that its normal lol.
I'll just have to put a paper bag over this console while I'm playing a game.
