I have a bunch of older consoles that need 1 small repair of some type. I was just wondering if anybody knows of a place that offers repair services for older consoles such as Sega Saturn/CDX?
Hell. I'd do it myself if i could find the laser lens parts.

It is pretty easy to repair a broken laser of a saturn console. Just get a functioning one (same model) and replace the whole laser unit. ;)

well see the thing with that is that i now have 3 saturns thanks to that neat little trick. They have no problems other than the lens itself.

Have you tried tweaking the POTs? When my JVC X-eye's laser started failing I just tweaked the laser POT slightly and got it to function again. It's been fine going on 3 years now, so before wasting the cash give it a shot if you haven't yet.

true that, but I've done that but the lenses are truly finished. i just need to know where to find parts or repair service.

Really you need to either find a local gaming store that hopefully has a crusty old dude there that worked at Funcoland back in the day and did some repairs. Otherwise maybe look into actually sending them to Sega for repairs, it's likely they've discontinued repairing older systems but I know Nintendo just recently stopped the original NES a few years back.
