A Christmasy Dreamcast Time
It's that time of year again, when Father Sega gives us nice things to play with, on our Dreamcasts. So, what did he pop in your GD-rom drive this year? He gave me a sealed, Typing of the Dead (now not sealed ). Which is by far the most mental thing, I've played in a while. |

I just got my Dreamcast in the mail, I'm planning on getting PSO. What are some other games I should get? Do you also happen to know any good sites where I can get old school games? I'm already aware of JJ Games and Amazon. I haven't tried ebay though. | ||||

Just I pointer for anyone after some great indie releases, play-asia has currently discounted all of its stock of Goat Published games. Cool herders, Feet of Fury, Inhabitants etc. are all going for $4.90-$7.90 (£3-£5) which is a really awesome price. http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-14-71-4-49-en.html | ||||

A couple months ago I was hitting up craigslist pretty hard looking for retro stuff and finally got one of my most sought after DC games, Samba De Amigo, not only did I get the game mint and the Official US sega maracas, but another set of third party ones that work pretty well (the brand is NAKI) Ended up paying $90 but much worth it to me. | ||||
|
||||
again, not a game... but will have games on it.

Hi everyone, I am new to the Forum
I have recently took it upon myself to pick my Dreamcast back up again, and have basically been spending all my wages on games so far, haha. My original collection included: Shenmue 1 Shenmue 2 Sonic Adventure 1 Sonic Adventure 2 PSO 1 PSO 2 Chu-Chu Rocket Res Evil Code: Veronica ....and with the help of my addiction (and money), I have since included Jet Set Radio Metropolis Street Racer Skies Of Arcadia Tee Off Golf Sydney 2000 Olympics Conflict Zone Grandia 2 Freestyle Scooter UEFA Striker MDK 2 Tomb Raider Chronicles Virtua Tennis 1 Virtua Tennis 2 102 Dalmatians Power Stone 1 (and 1 brand new controller, 4 brand new VMU's, and 1 brand new rumble pack). In amongst this, I have been playing Skies Of Arcadia non-stop, and my Xbox360 is gathering dust! ...Would I be right in assuming this would be a good place to try and find rare non-eBay games to buy from fellow Forum members? I'm sure I'll come unstuck on a few games which are impossible to find, and would like as much help as possible in obtaining them. And finally, I want to get back online with PSO if I can. I have seen the BBA available (but it seems too expensive for me right now), but I still have the 56k modem in my Dreamcast. I also have Broadband in my house. My question is: Can I still use my 56k modem to connect to the internet via my Broadband ISP? |
||||
|
||||
finally!....again!
good games with end84 last night. Just need a better mouse. So jerky! |

That is a fair price. I would never laugh at a price (unless it was 1,110.00 euros, then I might consider that to be a bit ludicrous). One has to remember, you spend time looking for these items. I always compare how much time I spend searching for a better price, to how much money I make hourly at a job. It gets to a certain point where spending months scouring sites to save 5-20 euros/dollars/gbp just doesn't make any sense. It then becomes more logical to just pull the trigger, and get the item purchase out of the way. So paying a premium price for an item, especially when it is in superb condition, is a smart move.
De La is a great example also because the price fluxation of this item is almost non-existant. The same with Border Down. The regular and LE editions sell for the same consistant prices over and over again. Anyone waiting to find a better price is kidding themselves. You sort of have to just save your pennies, man up, and buy the item at the current market rate. |

yeah, there's still that nut who's trying to sell that PAL blue sonic dreamcast for €2000 on ebay (although knowing myself I'd prolly buy it if I just had that 2000 lying round here )
anyways, my nakoruru box finally arrived today. now that my PAL collection is complete, I need something else to focus on & I decided its going to be these nice japanese boxset versions of games got anther few under way, so there's still some surprise piccies coming over the next few weeks |
