Is it worth owning multiple AES systems?

It's just a standard 1/8th inch mini jack.

So you just take some old headphones, rip their cable and solder another jack to the loose end and that's it?

You can buy a "link cable" for pennies, eg. http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10218&cs_id=1021802&p_id=644&seq=1&format=2

@OP: you need a unibios in your life...

 

[ChuChu Flamingo]

Yes I need one for every cartridge to prevent insertion marks and be playable at all times.

I don't believe in the UniBIOS either. It doesn't really have any features I need.

I find these features well worth it; to save high scores & pause in mvs mode.

I also like inserting coins with the select button. I know original BIOS has freeplay, but...

This is true. I've never really felt the need for one, the only feature that I'd really thought about was the extra blood and boobs, but I get that on my Jpn system. I suppose I should upgrade one day though, for the best experience.

I have multiple CMVS systems, just in case. One 4 slot and one 2 slot.

I currently own two AES consoles. A boxed English version and an unboxed Japanese one. I've thought about selling one to fund a couple more games but at the same time I think maybe I should keep a spare.

Would you guys recommend keeping a 2nd console? Eventually they're going to start to fail and I use my AES a lot. I wouldn't want a stack of games I can't play because my console died and the prices are too high to replace it.

Hi mate I know this is an old thread but yes definitely worth having / keeping an aes, not so .much for the reasons that it will fail.. I mean I have an old snes which has never broken down so I don't assume my aes will anytime soon but some aes hoarding never did anyone any harm now did it

 

[Liquid Snake]

I always buy spare system for every console i own, even some games.

 

[vinnieboy1]

I Have 3 AES which are all English. I got them for a really good price years back.

 

[Vigormortis]

I collect AES consoles. I can't afford to collect the games.

Well, the only reason I could think of on the fly would be to have one with & one (jpn.) w/o UniBios. The latter used as a pure breed for Highscore capturing.

 

[Bill Kilgore]

I have one extra. How else are they going to breed and have some offspring? I have locked both in a room... should be any day now.
