should I buy a Dreamcast?

[Mr. Mulder]

I'm not a big gamer but strangely have owned one of just about every console at some stage, and the Dreamcast by far pwnd the mostest. This is probably mainly due to the Shenmue saga. i sold it ages ago and bought a gamecube, then an xbox (with shenmue II of course) then half a ps2 which is the current console.

i saw some Dreamcasts the other day in gamestation for £20, so very tempting :unsure:

You can buy mine. $75 +tax.

It comes with a cheap memory card and a few games.

[Peerzy]

$75 = £40 :lol:

Get teh Dreamcast (With Sonic Adventure 1 ofcourse)

[Snee]

I saw chu chu rocket (new!!!11!!!) for under £1 in a bargain bin at some place a while ago.


It was so cheap I almost bought it, and I don't even have a dereamcast!!11!

[DarthInsinuate]

£21 for a dreamcast and Chu Chu Rocket sounds like a good deal to me

I did the same with the N64.

A Kmart was closing due to rampant shoplifting and they had 70% off games.

I bought Legend Of Zelda Ocarina Of Time, Goldeneye, Mario Kart, Star Wars Rogue Squadron and others and didn't even have a N64 yet.

Mental note - Try it for the local Game store :shifty:

On-topic - Get one! It had some great games on it :D Though wasn't there someone on the boards recently who said they got a load of Dreamcast ISOs from somewhere? :huh:

[Biggles]

My son has one (along with a Saturn and the one that was before that and his XBox :dry: )

He really liked the Dreamcast and was peeved when they stopped making games for it. He said they never got close to using its potential (then spoke in cyber geek which washed over me) £20 seems a bargain I recall paying a tad more when it came out.

DREAMCASTS DONT NEED A MODCHIP! You can simply download the ISO files, and burn them using Nero or Alcohol, and they play! No modchip!

I tried that and found ive got one of the newer ones that won’t play them :unsure:

Tried Utopia, CDI’s, ISO’s and NRG’s :no:

The only good game for DC was Sonic Adventures 1, so i voted no...

AHEM!

What about Soul Calibur? :P

[Formula1]

I guess that only makes two then :P

[Mr. Mulder]

Shenmue(s), HeadHunter, both Sonic Adventures (second pwns the first) and a few more im sure of it :unsure:

I found that the Dreamcast did not work when I first bought it, so I took it back and got a replacement, which also didn't work, so I took that back and got a refund, damn gypsies :dry:

got in a few hours of Sonic though, was worth it just for that :unsure:

[manker]

Default should I buy a Dreamcast? On reflection. No.

[lightshow]

Yea i was about to buy one. I really like the 4 controller systems. And the fact you can use the "loaders" to play backups.

And if you know where to get them, you're set! MUAHHAHA
