I dont ever recall a speckled PS2

Metallic yes, speckled not so much
Might wanna go ask "the comunity"

That said dont buy a slim. Their drives kak out and then you stuffed. Get a phat and a HDD adaptor. and back up your games to HD and play via OPL

Edit: Have a 1TB SATA in mine... rocks to be able to swap games without needing to reboot.

I would also have asked if that was paint...

Now that I have the gadgets busy building them up:



The GameCube memory is the 251 blocks one. Got it for R300. Was a lucky find.

Damn expensive from pwned games:



Will test both this evening. Hope it works.

Sweet!
GB/GBC/GBA games on the big screen.

BTW, I sometimes use the old (now discontinued) Super Retro Advance adapter on a SNES console for GBA games to a TV.

I've seen a couple on Bidorbuy, over the years. The last one, about a year ago, was mint, complete in box. This was from a seller who also had a bunch of other retro gaming items for sale. Some really rare stuff incl. a fully functional Vectrex with all the games and screen overlays.
