#OriginalXbox #SoftMod #Emulation - Hry
Xbox is a true legend of a console!!
One of my favourite consoles still to game on. Xbox and the Dreamcast are two machines that really feel like arcade quality gaming!
Chronik Spartan Gaming the games are, but it’s just a PC in a smaller package.
@@GreenAppelPie Technically every gaming console is just a repackaged PC.
@@Mutevox The PS3 isn't. A very unique set of hardware.
@@MoviesNGames007uk the concept of the PS3 was my favourite but the reality was that it was too different for developers to fully take advantage of.
I have all emulators and roms and stream movies on my nvidia shield tv! powerful 4K device and it’s all you need all in one!
"previous owner was a gamer it seems"
> absolutely shocked
Many germans use the xbox as a DVD Player...
@@mikkaheintz9173 damals war xbmc einfach godlike und perfekt für Streaming im eigenen Netzwerk 👌🏻
@@freewayross4736 Ja das stimmt, dann noch die ganzen games ;) hach war ne gute Zeit, da gab es überall noch game Shops
He meant that in a big way due to the sheer number of game saves it had on it. I don't see the problem?
Got'em
Rocky5 is a living legend. He’s still doing so much for the scene it’s ridiculous, the dude doesn’t take a break...even when he says he’s taking a break.
I look at these videos like I'm gonna do it lol.
On everything lol
Do it
It's really not hard to softmod. Hdd upgrades are a bit more tricky, but totally worth it.
dont waste the time. i made one and it sucked. i bought one on etsy and it rocked. it takes way more than theyre saying.
@@bobspence5322 it depends on what you're doing. A chimp could do the 5s soft mod on an OG box. Hard drive upgrades and mod chip soldering are a whole different deal. If you're willing to invest the time it's very rewarding, but if you just after the end product, then yeah Etsy consolemods.co is the way to go.
You and Mario inspired me to get an OG Xbox when I moved to the states from the UK (left my old one back in England). I'm reliving my childhood and it is amazing how well so many of the games have aged and how smoothly many of the emulators work! Keep spreading the word mate :)
Thank you for the video, the XBMC-Emustation downloader error is due to you building the source and being in the US.
I have fixed this as of 5 mins ago, so there should be no issues building the source and the versioning being done correctly.
Now that's dev dedication, fixing bugs that aren't even directly reported! Hats off to you!
thanks! i dropped you a donation over the weekend. great stuff
Modern Vintage Gamer ah that was you, thank you. Wasn’t needed but much appreciated.
Can confirm it works, great job!
Thanks for the dedication! For some reason, however, running the BAT file does not create a new folder for me.
I'm only guessing but the reason why it performs so well despite being so old, is due to the fact it has a dedicated GPU that handles a lot that the CPU couldn't pull off by itself.
true
This is my absolute favorite console...I wish we had something similar happen with a modern console. I don't know if that OG xbox scene can ever truly be experienced again. When the floodgates blew open on this thing, it was like nothing seen before. I'm so happy to see that development has continued over the years on this little guy and that there have been a lot of really cool developments since then. Don't forget to remove your clock caps everyone! If you see an Xbox in the wild that hasn't been opened, snatch it up - if only to crack it open to remove that damn cap! Save as many of these consoles as you can!
A masterpiece of a console, it was so great, bro.
Btw, If it's a 1.6 it doesn't need to be opened, right?
A jailbroken PS3 is about the best newer console for emulation. Mines fitted with a 1TB hard drive and never looked back.. MrMario2011 is where you need to go again.
@@ivanmontalvo9333 would still replace it
@@ivanmontalvo9333 as @xUpbeatx said I would still replace it(the clock capacitor). My reasoning is because I have heard from someone that's worked on hundreds of OG Xboxes
The clock capacitors on v1.6 are starting to fail so it's just a matter of time before all V1.6s have bad and leacking clock capacitors.
Another reason is theirs 5 capacitors by the GPU that nowen days have a high failure rate,and the console can't function without them, I now have first hand experience with thoes 5. Easy enough fixes if you have soldering experience and the right tools.
@@techadmirer6475 ok, thanks for the heads up man
Just like the Commodore 64... The Computer system that wont die.
I am a C64 kid, grew up playing on it , and I see games in 2021 being developed by Home Brewers. It makes me really love that system.
I still have my old C64 and I kept it in pristine condition to this day :)
Loved that machine! In 2005 I couldn't afford to build a HTPC, but the XBOX was just $150. I have owned many over the years. Eventually the slow ethernet speeds made me say goodbye, but it warms my heart to know that folks are still getting what they can out of this machine.
OG xbox is still my favourite modded console of all time. It just feels so good. Wii is pretty good too, you can get a wii with a broken disc drive and make it work ( with iso on usb) with just an sd card. I technically got mine and modded it for free using an sd card from an old camera.
OP: "What do you do with a original xbox that you find cheap at a thrift store"
2021: "LOL that'll be $80, bucko!"
Still cheaper than most modern consoles
just paid $110 for a CLEAN Halo Edition
Lol 40 dollars
In 10 years this will be $500+
$8 🤷♂️, I switched the sticker prices lol. I honestly bought a original xbox and xbox 360 for dirt cheap at the thrift store. I already had a modded original xbox that had a bad DVD 📀 drive that couldn't read cds but can play isos from the 500 gb hard drive. So I got someone to swap disc drives for me and now it can read cds. 500 gb is not enough space but honestly original xbox only had a handful of games that were the absolute best that I enjoyed, so good enough for me.
I can't explain what's so fun about these old Xboxes. I still mess around with mine from time to time. Installed an SSD a couple months ago, and I can attest to the still-active community - they were there for me when I ran into some noobie problems. Great video as always.
Excited for your take on the ps4 and 3ds. Keep creating such good content.
Some 3ds content would be great
Yah, 3DS softmodding is kind of weird. It used to be easier to do. Just required an SD card but now you need DS flashcarts and stuff to do it on newer firmwares. Glad I did mine before I needed to bother with any of that crap.
@@devilmikey00 you don't need flashcards to softmod a 3ds
@@devilmikey00 not anymore
@@devilmikey00 You don't need a flashcart. All you need is a dsi ware app from the e-shop.
I remmeber doing this back in high school and customizing the music, sound fx and background... Great console though
i had a friend mod his in 2002.. i had no idea how! by now i mean anyone can but he had own band songs pics all loaded into the song lists everything custom just to play tony hawk.. lol was the beginnings of ... well looking back now that poor boy.. naive son of a bitch drown in his own phlegm and puke before age 30.
This makes me wanna dig out my old Xbox this brought back a lot of memories for me.
As soon as I heard you say Mech assault I got a big smile on my face
Yeah I broke down and hooked mine up. Have to order a remote but at least I can see that sexy boot up
I've been playing mine for a few months now and I updated my cables to component and wow games that support 720p and 1080i look great.
BIG LOVE for the shoutout, my dude. Much appreciated!
Also, I know of MechAssault on the Xbox but... MechWarrior? 😁
oops, my bad on that one!
your tutorials deserve much more shoutouts. I was thinking of doing a couple myself that I don't think you or MVG or anyone else has covered.
I think he meant to say Steel Battalion ;-)
@@ModernVintageGamer i own a ps3
😉😁⛈️
Still using mine for that very purpose! I bought mine back in 2002 and am still using it on a regular basis (play old games, play emulators, watch movies (from network, files on HDD and DVD). I did bought the infrared remote back then and always used the unit as DVD player (still am). I've installed the biggest IDE HDD I could find back then, that was a 250GB. Also, I have the fancy A/V module with 5:1 digital sound output which is still plugged in my old audio system.
Although the raw capabilities are a world appart with it's successor, I can do so much with that original Xbox and so little with the Xbox 360 I also have. Yes, you can run Linux on that original Xbox, but 64MB RAM is kind of thight. For that matter any Rasberry Pi will be a better choice.
As an emulator, what probably makes this a good system: you have pretty descent and robust controllers compared to all of those 50$-100$ retro minis. Biggest drawback would be power consumption, a bit of fan noise. I'm not going to mention the 4K issue since it's not really an issue as a an 8/16 bit emulator.
I find amazing that I'm still using a 18 year old computer system on a regular basis. How many electronic products you have now will pass the 15 years mark? That's a testament to the build quality on the product, thanks Microsoft. Let's not forget about the homebrew community, without them I would have sold my unit long time ago.
Coupla things I just gotta say: I was watching what the tech community did to help out Austin when his house burnt down, and you stepped up, and gave him a lil heads-up he was appreciated. Everything you guys did brought a manly tear to my eye.
Second of it, I got 5 of these original XBoxes, mostly working, so any help in a soft-mod direction would be great, since the modchip scene seems to have died.
And Austin was SO overwhelmed. What you guys did was LEGENDARY :)
Found a £25 one in a pawn shop the other day and couldn't resist. Still got some games on the shelf from my old one and sorely tempted to give this a try at some point.
wow flashbacks to them action replay mod glory days... lone wolf was such a good game need a sequel
After owning an Xbox and having it chipped when I was living overseas, and using it to this day without ever going through any challenges... I finally picked up a spare and Softmodded it following your tips. While there were some hiccups, it works like a charm! Thanks, now I just need to replace the HDD and the fan and it will be better than ever!
Thanks, I really enjoy your videos!
Overseas ya say? This is a silly question, but once you mod the og Xbox in the same way that MVG did in the video, will it make your Xbox able to play other region games?
@@GoodlyPenguin good question... I only have 'backups' of out-of-region titles... I'm not sure if they were unlocked in the rom stage or not, but to my knowledge softmodding does remove region restrictions....
@@HFX_BRX OK, thank you for the response despite it being awhile ago. I'll look into this just to be sure
That Speedball 2 music brought back memories! One of the few games I could consistently beat my mates at.
Thank you. I couldn't figure out what the music was, but I knew it was something burned into my memory from looooooonnnnnngggg ago.
Am I the only person that read, “I could consistently beat my mates at” as, “consistently beat my meat at” 😂😂😂
@@MarkSlavin Speed Ball 2 intro tune for the Amiga... 🙌🙌🙌
Absolutely true. I've had one for 10 years plus. Fully loaded with classic console and arcade games. No HDMI, but looks great using component cable. I still like it best overall..better than raspberry pie
I still love my OG Xbox!!! Thinking dust it off this weekend and plop it in my theater room
I recently discovered your channel. This is some great content , neat and interesting. Also like the dedication to it.
came here to learn more about the rocky method doing another xbox softmod after some time and i felt like i was missing some things and u eve nsaid it in your video thanks!
I wish companies wouldn't abandon older consoles. Imagine what would be possible if the actual developers worked with the homebrew guys.
Yeah, they'd provide a focus for copyright claims and get sued out of business.
I’ve got two: a black and a green translucent one. I’m definitely gonna mod the black one thanks to your tutorial.
Awesomeness!
Give me
They ain't $10 anymore. people want crack prices for these in 2023.
Crack is still pretty cheap if it’s just a one time purchase!
Glances at the two Xbox’s sitting on a shelf I got for less than $50 total years ago…. 😅😅😅
Thanks so much. I have a few originals in storage with the plan to softmod. This looks like the way to go.
I have to pick one of these up. Rich from ReviewTech sent me here, so I subscribed. Good content man!
this is awesome, I found an Xbox for exactly $10 and it works. it is dirty but it was still awesome, can't wait to try this mod, Thanks for the guide : )
Thank you for the great tutorial, I am now playing classic games on my OG XBOX.
you just gave me a great idea ive only been looking on fb marketplace or ebay for retro consoles like nes but looking in stores is genius
Used your links and tutorial and everything worked out perfectly. Thank you so much for the amazing content.
Love Quantum Redshift, it brings back fond memories of a simpler time.
My Original Xbox is currently holding up my bed.
I'll give you 20$ and a nice brick to replace the xboxs place
This is a very good console and emulation rocks on it. My main usage for it was xbmc although.
But it's nowhere near to be seen for $10 here in Belgium. Prices vary from $30 to $50. Sometimes more.
Juzt my personal op. Thats good on you man to shoutout other CZcamsrs on your channel
The best modding console ever!
Mine was running on XBMC
and could backup iso's on the hdd
Had almost every emulator
Kevin Halley Wii U.
2:54 that game looks really good, including the destruction etc.
mech assault and mech assault 2 are really rally good games.
remember doing all this to mine. was amazed at all the things i could do. 500gb hdd full of emulators and xbox games.
Im going to be modding 2 Xboxes this week! One is getting a 1 TB HDD. Definitely using this video for the emulator Thanks!
I know this is 10 months late. But how did the 1tb HDD work on the Xbox? I know the HDD that came with the Xbox went with the MoBo. So modding that HAD to be fun. Hopefully all went well.
I love you and mr.Mario’s channel. It’s totally different from most of the content put out on CZcams.
That new xbmc looks gorgeous!
New where is it? I have an old one from like 2013
@@Gr33kChief i think xbmc4xbox 3.5.3 is the latest Version You can get, but it is already 3 years old
XBMC4Gamers is the best imo but emustation is cool too. Stuff like origins has People working on it as well but XBMC4Gamers is the most advanced and best.
MotoEMNK the Rocky5 version is the newest version you can get, the latest version is probably days old. JC is ALWAYS updating his builds (XBMC4Gamers & EmuStation).
it's a big difference compared to the one i have installed on mine.
Along time ago hard modded my Xbox with a 1tb HDD installed! The emulation is really solid for sure! Xbox or a retropie setup will be the best bet for a nice emu station! Nice vid!
I remember doing this year back, I put in a 500gb hdd and installed coin ops which took ages to install because of the size. It was quality as I made my own USB cable for the initial softmod. I felt like I was on top of the world lol
After it all installed I just was so amazed that everything ran flawless
This brings back memories. I don't remember how I obtained the run Linux mech assault Linux hack. But I had it on a regular xbox memory card. I used to charge $30 to soft mod an Xbox. I install evolution x dashboard I believe it was called. I gave the owner whatever "options" he wanted as long as it would fit in the left over 4.x GB room left.
My own Xbox had a chameleon chip and a 160gb hdd. That thing was a work horse. The chip finally gave out 2-3 years ago. Those were the days!
Are you still modding consoles?
surely the best thing about having an xbox for emulation here in the UK is that you can have RGB scart on a CRT giving you a very nice arcade setup with those lovely scan lines :)
Sadly, there is no way for an OG Xbox to output a 240p video signal :/ You are limited to 480i with a scart so you can't play at native resolutions wih scanlines with emulators.
saly sysy ah that’s too bad, back in the day when I had a chipped Xbox I ran all the emulators and used a crt here in the UK it never occurred to me that it wasn’t the correct picture type etc, it’s only now I strive for that scanline look with crt etc, funny how we get hung up on image reproduction and forget to play the games haha, I’ll stick to getting a pi set up with scart then :)
@@JayRKID The best for 240p emulation is the Wii! Forget the Pi, it sucks, laggy crap. The Wii is almost lagless, and I would say 100% lag free when using a CRT, it is an amazing machine for 8 and 16 bit emulation.
nashismox3 oh really, that’s interesting, I have a wii set up with some hombrew but I do find it fiddly getting into emulators and having to use the wiimote is a choir, but will give it a propper look thanks
@@JayRKID Yes to what he said! I have the Xbox set up with Origins on a 2TB SATA HDD and it works great, what a machine, but not having 240p is a damn shame. I recently got my Wii modded with emulators and wow, 240p on my Trinitron and it looks just like my NES, beautiful and glorious scanlines - just make sure to change the emulator's video setting to "original" or "240p" - and boom, it's like putting glasses on for the first time as you switch from 480i fuzzy crap to 240p sharp pixels! Yes, the Wiimote sucks, but here's the thing, if you get the NES and SNES controllers made for their respective mini systems, they will work with the Wiimote and emulators perfectly, as they get recognized as a classic controller, it works great! If you haven't done so in those four months that have passed, go for it, you won't regret it! Try WiiFlow. All the best.
Finished this tutorial with an Xbox I found on the side of the road, it's awesome! I ended up using my old phone and a usb mount app because I tried like 7 usb drives and none worked, Thanks for this tutorial!
How phone put roms on xbox
I have used an Xbox for years. I was using it to watch movies using XBMC, to play original games and emulators. It's indeed still a fantastic retrogaming console and maybe the only one i'd keep.
Found one for 5€ on a flea market, put a 500 gb HD + an aladdin chip inside. I don't need anything more to be happy :)
Hell Yeah, did this back in the day. Hacked a memory card and think I connected pc snd installed games. Then connected to system. Epic
Never knew this, may need one, was always a Nintendo kid but there are some games that look fun for xb
This was so informative. Gave me a new perspective on buying one in the future
Thanks for this wonderful tutorial I have picked up several Xboxes from thrift stores over the years and found some meat surprises Sorrel had game still in them one had an Executor mod chip in it Let The Telltale switch hanging down through the vents on the front face. I modded a few with unleash X. Now it's time for a new project I'm into arcade1up cabinets and my boys have lost interest playing the four games that are on rampage but they love playing Simpsons and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on my original Modded Xbox so I'm going to put one into the arcade1up and will probably follow this tutorial because I really like this the new front end! Thanks again for bringing this to light for all of us!
I expected you to mention the PSP as a file transfer key. It saved my ass when I only had current usb drives on hand.
it works with a psp? (doesnt matter the size of the pro duo card? or it works with a pro duo adapter?)
Hugo M. Hidalgo A. There’s a guide how to do it on instructables
@@CJ9007 thanks for the info
This is my favorite system too im about to follow your guide i hope it works thanks for the info💯
Thankyou soo much. this front end was the missing link to my random emulator installs now it can look pro!
Liked & Shared.
This was a great video man. I want to mod an OG xbox now! This will be my reference video
Always wanted a modded Xbox for emulation but did not have the skills to mod one
Ended up modding a Wii instead and ended up loving the little thing
I've got both. I would say the Wii is more user friendly (especially if like me, you lack the skills to really know what you're doing) but the Xbox is more powerful and I think the controller situation is better.
I've got one gathering dust in my closet and I love emulation so this vid came at the right time.
Give it to me
Did you do it? God bless you
@swer ok
Do it
More of these please. Tips and demos of how the OXbox emulation works.
Decided to use XBMC4Gamers as i love the cover flow. Reminds me of a modern software loader/GUI.
Already have a raspberry pie with retropie installed & many mini consoles (SNES Mini, Mega Drive Mini & PS Classic).
The original xbox is my favorite system of all time. I loved the one I had and I wish I still had it. I had music on it and played my games. I never got mine modded but I did think about getting it done. Back then it wasn't as easy as it is now though.
lol it was
@@BraxtronAdvancecomputers are a mix of weird physical manipulation and magic, to me, as someone who doesn't understand computers
Thanks for the tip on the clock capacitor, I had no idea, and I have 3 lol
Really nice. Still using the old XBMC build. Might upgrade
Ive never heard of rocky, ive always used sid or an AID.. shocked they are STILL adding things
Although it costs a fair amount more the nvidia shield is an amazing emulator box as well and media box. I have been nothing but impressed with both of mine.
$10 is a wonderful deal, in my place they're like $80..
And thanks for such a great work, love your videos, stay tune! :D
@Honudes Gai Amazon ships to my country for $70 only.
Wow very cool mod, looks like it takes some time. I first played Halo on a friends Xbox in 2001 so i have good fond memories with the system.
Great video. This is a very instructive demonstration.
I will love to see more videos like this

I'm looking for some quality 3rd party original Xbox controllers. It's impossible to find brand new ones of Microsoft brand unless people are willing to pay $100+ from someone on Ebay.
I used to have a Sega and an XBOX and lately bought and 007 DVD box.
It's so cool that you can do all that on an XBOX and I've actually replaced the harddrive and hardmodded it.
It's basically the best DVD player which can also run games, yes it's chunky but I love the crystal look of my xbox.
I installed a larger HDD in mine and installed coin ops. Love it!
Coin-ops is class ✌️

@@NintendoDude888 ah yes, nothing like good 'ol intellectual discourse in the CZcams comment section.
@@NintendoDude888 yeah, I've messed around with those in the past. I've had the best luck with that official xbox HD pack that you then plug component cables into.
To each their own.
@@NintendoDude888 you’re thinking of composite, that’s not crisp. Component has separate red, green, blue connectors and was required to get the 720p and 1080i resolutions that many games supported.
THANK you so much for this, its june 2021 right now and i just modded a 1.6 XBOX using your video!, the only thing is with my 1.6 i had to change 5 capacitors by the power input to the motherboard, but i hear its a fault on the rev 1.6 boards and the way it was stored, i got mine out of a basement when helping someone move, they found it too bulky to take to their new place and just gave me the system, had to spend about 10 bucks on solder and new capacitors and 5 bucks on a copy of splinter cell, but still a great find, i have never had an XBOX before but i love it!
also downloading works for me
Just bought one after watching your videos. I hope I can put the emulators on it!

@@bigblueassbaby9074 -onions- Reais
I wonder how much shipping would be. Probably would cost a lot. I have 4 OG Xboxes laying around that I need something to do with. :D
@@ReetinEntertainment depends on the country though. Brazil and Argentina are fucked. Colombia is a lot more friendly with tech exports, and although videogames have a 20% tax over its value, you can simply say it's a computer and pay no taxes. Shipping will probably be like 25 dollars or so due to the weight, if you get a fully functional xbox for 10-15 bucks, its still a nice deal.
@@kikujade My friend's mom works at a Thrift Store. I can get older consoles like that for around $10. If a PS3 comes in, it is around $30.
Great vid, as always!! Could you make a video on how to replace the OG Xbox's HD with a SSD ? And have it be more silent, in general ?
I’m sure you’ve already seen this vid by now, I just thought it was funny that this vid addressed your two questions specifically
czcams.com/video/hkbpbY8-yAA/video.html
Nice tutorial. Inspired me to mod my last un-modded OG Xbox.
Thanks for the demo and walk thru, I was able to revive and resurrect my original xbox. Have a great day
I would have liked to have seen a sata hdd upgrade. I used a ide-sata07 adapter and a 80 wire ultra 133 ribbon cable. I dont know if anything has changed/gotten better. I always enjoy your videos!
It shouldn't have really improved the speed of the hard drive. The problem is that the IDE connection limits at around 144 mbps (or something around there) so, you aren't going to see much of a speed increase. Now, if you had a Solid State drive you still might not notice a huge difference but, some load times might improve.
@@ReetinEntertainment Speed is probably not what they meant by improved. The process to convert an Xbox to use a SATA drive is a hassle and a half. Yet it is the right way to go since IDE drives are all obsolete now. And the answer is, no. The process is still the same and not improved at all.
Damn it's been so long since I've seen that sexy load up.... Even though I have an xbox
very, very nice, FYI if you are using an old tv, like an crt one keep in mind that the letters on the front won't be as clear as if you were using a hd tv
2021 and i still want this so bad. The OG Xbox was that mystic console for me. I had one for 3 months but sadly was not working properly...
Thanks for this amazing content. Could you please create a video with the platforms that really are well emulated on the Original Xbox?
Everything from atari-n64
The N64 emulation tends to be spottier on the highest capacity cartridges
I’m trying to absorb as much info as I can! I sold my original Xbox (doh!). I’ve been using a Pi3 (I love it), and honestly, for MAME, SMS, NimtellivisioES, Genesis, SNES, old Atari/collecovision/, SG1000, a Dreamcast works perfectly.
Just curious- the Xbox shown at 7:39- 7:42 (ish) shows an orange/red ring. Is this normal?
@@sideswipe1261 Yep. This usually indicates that the Xbox is modded in some way
1:48
I think you’ll find that was the Dreamcast, it emulated all 8bit machines great and most 16 bit machines bar the SNES, you just had to run everything from burned cds
If they are burnt how did they not melt?
I need a burned dvd copy of the mame disc that plays the old arcade games. Do you know where I can find it?
Did that around 15 years ago. But then it kept having issues. But I remember how cool it was.
Props for finding shelves that are the *perfect* fit! (1:00)
cheaper than a retropi.
idk where you live but an og xbox is really pricey where i am
@@formerlycringe where do you live?
@@formerlycringe I hear that, the last time I saw an OG Xbox at my local GoodWill with no cables, and really piss poor condition(looked like it had went threw a mug bath) they wanted $30 USD for it. I was like na not taking a chance on that, another time they had a big clear plastic tub full of random Nintendo Wii stuff(maybe a console with it, could not tell) and duck tape all around it with a marker label of $220 USD, and they now want $5 for common as dirt scratched to hell PS 2 games. All from the same location, I'm like WTF?!?!
Watching NORA on the OG Xbox?
@@formerlycringe Same here (for PS2 as well); also, it's slightly more than the stated $10 unless that usb->xbox adapter was included. The raspberry pi also is substantially faster. Retroarch on XBox (czcams.com/video/fnwc7afBtIw/video.html) could be better, as well as the other emulators (GBA emulator can't maintain 60 fps in even games like Metroid: Zero Mission).
Now, if you want to play XBox games.. :) Definitely, Xbox with component looks great. A shame more games didn't support 720p. From that perspective, all the emulators that do work well are an added bonus. I'd go for a raspberry pi, a used pc, or a lot of other options though if emulation were the real focus.

I got an OG Xbox’s from like 2005 halo edition that has like 20 different emulators on it that were modded onto it back then. 1000s of games
I love coin-ops.... I have an arcade machine with an OG Xbox connected through jamma
Dreamcast and xbox the real og kings!
@Wandy Wexler Weslon lol. Dreamcast is underated. Yes you heard this before but of course you won't agree I really mean it is when I say it. Also it's so sad that this system plays all games at 60 fps and many others after that can't keep it stable as that.
I have owned and played the Xbox 360 and the One but never owned or played the Original Xbox. I found one the other day with a controller, power cord, and when I turned it on for the first time the console had a copy of Star Wars Battlefront II disc in the drive, all for $25 at a Goodwill. I had to order new component cables as I was unable to find any at the Goodwill it was at, I paid for $8 for them on Amazon. While I waited for them, I took the console apart to the board and cleaned it out and it was dusty as hell, it was so easy to take apart to be honest. I assembled it all together and waited till I got the cables, once I got them in the mail I hooked it all up and test it again and it worked like a clock! The only thing wrong with it is the DVD drive sticks but I have to replace the band on the gear that opens it which is pretty easy to fix and cheap. This console was built on August 23, 2003 according to the casing of the Xbox and for almost 18 years old it looks good! Now the only things left are to soft mod it, get the DVD expansion for it so I can play my DVD’s, build a game library for it, and try to get XLink on it or insignia’s software when it gets released. But I can’t wait to start playing it along side my PS1 & PS2.
I remember somone in tijuana in 2012 had a modded orginal xbox we were playing killer instinct and mario 64 so many amazing titles in 2012
