In the video I called this an unboxing but it would seem that term only applies to brand new products so this is a look at a previously played Sega Master System being taken out of its original packaging. This version was packaged with two controllers, one light gun, and one combo cartridge. I've also included a look at the Rapid Fire Control Stick and the Sega 3-D Glasses. There is no gameplay is this video; I'll play some of the games in future videos.

For a few more details and images check out the Vault 1541 blog entry that accompanies this video: http://www.vault1541.com/2017/07/youtubed-sega-master-system.html

I made a couple cuts so the video will appear to jump slightly in the first minute and in the seventh minute. Early on I started rambling on about the potential launch price which I now believe was $199.99. As you'll see in the video I acquired my SMS in 1987 after it was discounted to $99.99. The other edit was just me taking a drink of water, no need to see that.

Also, I realize it may look strange to have my head out of the frame most of the video but there is no real need to see me. It's easier to do this while standing and without my head in the frame you can get a closer look at the products. The microphone is above me as well so that shouldn't affect sound. If it's too bothersome I'll do something differently for the other Sega consoles I look at in the future.
