Are Cobra USB's from Deal Extreme legit?

**Norkusa** · 02-12-2012,03:42 PM

Finally going to order a Cobra USB dongle. I see Deal Extreme sells them now for $35 shipped to the USA.

Are these authentic Cobra's? DX isn't listed on Cobra's list of authorized resellers, so I'm not 100% sure. DX is usually upfront if a product is a imitation or knock-off though and will clearly listed in the description if it is. Customer reviews are good though. Can anyone that has ordered one from here verify?

Sounds too cheap with shipping included. I'd stick with the authorized dealer list

Why just buy a tb instead many PSN ps1 classics are already cracked

Yeah, it's pretty cheap compared to other resellers but that's how Deal Extreme is. I've bought several legit flash cards there for my DS and they were always 15-20% cheaper than the competition. Only thing that sucks is you usually have to wait 2-3 weeks for delivery.

Don't really want a True Blue since I'm just going to be using this for playing 450GB's of PS1 iso's. Barely play any PS3 games.

plays blu-rays
streams media from my PC
arcade and classic console emulation
PSN games

I also have a 360, so I just do all my current-gen gaming on that.

My 360 isn't modded. I read up on it once and it sounds like a complete pain in the ass to do, so I never bothered.

If there was a way to get a PS3 online with custom firmware though, I probably wouldn't touch my 360. Really just play MW3 and a few XBLA games online it. The new dashboard sucks too.

It's good. I have a Jtagged 360, and for all the newest games, it's a breeze to use. No online though unless you use xlink kai. If you want online, you can use ixtreme firmware LT 3.0-, but you're constantly playing cat and mouse with Microsoft every time they release a new dashboard update in fear of another ban wave. Still it's the only way to play on xbox live with backups.

After modding a few 360s i can now mod fat 360s in under 10 minutes
