Bump. The list now has 900+ entries!
Also, started adding Manufacturing dates listed on the bottom of US consoles.

Howe about adding the brazilian TecToy models to your list?

Nice! It's good to have the bottom stickers too for USA models. It looks like most of the USA models are found now, even if some only have 1-2 entries. A question, if you still have the other USA machines you submitted, can you take a snap of their manufacturing date as well? The next one is already in your database, but I'm pretty sure someone else snapped that pic. Small world. The explanation is even simpler: I semi-regularly check Ebay and Yahoo Japan for serials. Looks like you bought one of the machines that was up on Ebay, with a serial picture. All the same, thanks for the clearer pictures. Out of interest, does this have a EMW-x drive, or a JA00292 one?

Nah, I don't think that modding related info is important to track (I only take note of them when they are visible on the picture in the DB). Cases can be swapped out, after all. Case in point: That's an early case bottom for VA0 models. I can see a VA0 board through the vents, and based on the manufacturing date it should belong to a machine with 650x serial, not AE62x. I think you may have mixed that up, unless someone actually swapped the serial stickers too! Howe about adding the brazilian TecToy models to your list? There is nothing to add from Tectoy models, as their rebranding involves the removal of ALL identification stickers. They literally bootleg USA units (and later, white JPN ones and a few skeletons too).

Yeah, Wikipedia is full of bad info for Saturn versions. MK-80001 is the standard USA Model 1 package, MK-80008 is the standard USA Model 2 package. MK-80008-22 is the Canadian version of the above, with an english+french box.

Thanks as usual.
That asian box, that's the hst-0014 type box, right?

I just got a few new saturns. I'll get pictures up when I can Model 1- B5 025351 Model 2- 067053510 AE64103767
And an interesting Model 2... There is a new serial number sticker over the original. Top- AE68066003 Bottom- AE64181053 This console has been painted, and all identifying stickers on the bottom are gone. I had to scrape the paint off of the serial number sticker to see it.

That second machine was likely "refurbished". There are oddities like that, I once saw a machine that was a mix of white and black parts and had a mismatching serial that was clearly peeled off and glued back to the non-belonging case.
You can check the internal hardware to see which sticker is the real one: AE68 if it has a VA8 board (32pin drive), AE64 if it has a VA SG board (64pin drive, separate controller board).
