I have a region switch on my Saturn.  I got it so I could play the cheaper and easier to find Japanese version of The House of The Dead.

I've hard modded the original Xbox to run evoX.  The homebrew for the system is rather lacking and is almost exclusively emulators.  That being said, the popular PC freeware DDR game, Stepmania was ported and is definitely worth the cost and effort of console modding if you're into DDR.  Additionally I punched a third IDE connector into the ribbon cable so I could have two hard drives (and the system's DVD drive, of course) connected at once.  Such as not to confuse the system (only two IDE devices can be supported at once), I made a switch that controlled the power to select only the HD I wished to use.  Also, a bigger, noisier, less efficient fan that doesn't even glow.  I should go back and change that one and do the IR mod.

Other mods include: adding LED lights to my Dreamcast and VMUs; controller/console cleaning, servicing and repair; saving a damaged Xbox (big bertha) controller with a frayed cord.  It now plugs into USB; and...

swapping the SATA drives from two Xbox 360 hard drive casings.  The grey and silver don't match the pea-green Halo 3 Xbox 360, so I swapped it with the stock (black and amber) casing.

yeah, use to have a JP DC that i painted flat black with a blue LED. My wife had mistaken it for garbage and threw it out when we were about to move. It got mixed in with the broken DC's i had stashed in our closet.

I don't have any modded systems yet. I've been thinking of modding a spare genesis though.

I also have a blue Mega Drive 2 that I painted but I only painted it because it was broken and then I broke the other Mega Drive 2 that I was going to swap the internals with.

Wups! :-x

I might still have a picture of it in my profile.

Red buttons are standard on UK Mega Drive 2s. Smiley They make a nice contrast, anyway.

I know they were standard. Just never understood why.
