What did the DC come with?

corblimey · 13-10-2009, 12:23

I'm trying to pack up my unused DC's and get things under control a bit. Since I bought the consoles and accessories piecemeal over a long period, I'm trying to find out what came in the original DC box. According to the ThinkGeek ones that went on sale a few months back, you get:

# Dreamcast Console
# One Controller
# Power Cable
# AV Cable with composite video and stereo audio
# Phone cable
# Built in 56K Modem
# Web Browser 2.0 Disc (dreamkey?)
# Game Demo Disc (dreamon?)
# Instruction Manual

Does that look about right? I've tried finding eBay auctions, etc, but it seems to be that if the console is "boxed", then they just make up what they put into it.

Depending on where you bought it, was there not one free game as well ? Chu-Chu Rocket or something similar ?

I got mine in Dixons ... pretty sure there was a free game in there.

I still have a boxed DC at home ... I'll check it tonight and post back.

Chu Chu Rocket didn't come free with the dreamcast, think you had to register with sega or write off for a dream key CD I think.

was there such a thing as a 2.0 dreamkey? think it jumped up from 1.5 to 3.0

If you played it in 4 player while drunk you would have cared for it.
