rare consoles?

The Neo-Geo 'hotel' cabinet is pretty damn rare (can't remember its official name), then you have not so much rare, but ones which just didn't sell - such as the Virtual Boy, NeoGeoCD, 3D0 etc. the original Nuon console is also pretty rare, if you dont take into account DVD players which were nuon enabled.

can we list special editions? such as the in-car JVC saturn?

I'm a proud owner of a 3DOm2 prototype console if prototypes are allowed

[HaHaUK]

actually should have rephrased it:

limited/ v.limited edition consoles, eg: smokey black xbox, green xbox, white ps2 etc.

You forgot the red/black Boktai one, my fav

[HaHaUK]

its already in the list

[nekroxide]

The white Saturn's not limited or anything, it was the standard colour for the model 2 JP machine.

Limited machines (the Sega ones) are

This is Cool Skeleton edition
Derby Stallion Skeleton edition
Sonic Skeleton edition

Then there's the ones that Sega didn't make (made my Victor/JVC and Hitachi) which come in various iterations, the rarest being the Hitachi Navi HiSaturn that has a GPS system built into it, complete with LCD screen to enable full portable (in your car) Saturn gaming!

Japan-games.com is a good source of info for these things.
