Thinking about selling my dreamcast....

deadl0ck

Yes - I know - this is a Nintendo forum, but there are a lot of the retro type gamers here...

Anyhow - I haven't played my Dreamcast in yonks and I'm thinking of selling it.

Kit is as follows (from memory):

Dreamcast
2 controllers
1 VMU
1 3rd Party Memory
Official Dreamcast light gun (Have House of the Dead 2 and Confidential Mission)
Official Dreamcast Arcade Stick
Dance Mat (I think somewhere, with DDR type game)
3rd Party version of Samba De Amigo Maracas (And Samba De Amigo Game)
ABout 40 Original Games - Including Shenmue
All cables etc...

What do you guys reckon ? How much is it all worth ?
I know Shenmue on it's own get about £15-£20 on ebay.
Would I be better splitting ?

Am i crazy selling it?
I hate selling my stuff, but I never actually play it !!! I always seem to hang on to stuff I don't need to.

Anyhow - suggestions / comments please !!!

Well I'd be interested in some of that. How much for Samba de Amigo with the maracas?

I might be interested in some of the games if you want to post up a list. Always looking to complete my collection.

As for value, it would depend on if you have any of the rarer games, in which case I'd sell those individually and then sell the rest in a bundle.

honru

Sell it all individually.

dimerocks

sell it all to me!!

deadl0ck

I'll get the list of games i have and post them during the week - not in my place at the moment

Well I'd be interested in some of that. How much for Samba de Amigo with the maracas?

If I do decide to split, you're name is on the Samab De Amigo stuff - not sure what I'm gonna do though

If I do sell as a whole unit what would be a reasonable price to ask for though ?
Any ideas ?
Or would I need to post the full list of games first

Depends on the games/accessories and the condition they're in.

jesus_thats_gre

I willl defo buy the console, controllers, memory units, arcade stick and a few games off you (Soul Calibur, Shenmue, PowerStone, Rez, Virtua Tennis etc etc etc...)

Going by Ebay and assuming the console is boxed, I would be willing to offer 50 euro for the console and accessories. Will also buy a load of games off you depending on the titles. Am off tomorrow and could make it to drogheda.

No thanks

By the way - it's not boxed

I appreciate that you want to realise what you think is the full value of it but in fairness:

50 can be bettered but how much do you expect..

dor83

i might be interested in the lot, how much would you be looking for?

deadl0ck

OK - here's the list of games I have :

Basic Games (go for about $5 each on eBay excluding shipping):
Sonic Adventure
House of the Dead 2
Ecco
Rayman 2
Power Stone
Sega Rally
Ready 2 Runble
Ready 2 Rumble Round 2
Silver
Ultimate Fighting Championship
Soul Calibur
Marvel Vs Capcom
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Wild Metal
Toy Racer
ChuChu Rcoket
Crazy Taxi
Space Channel 5
Worms Armageddon
ReVolt
TrickStyle
Toy Commander

Harder to get games (About $20 each on eBay excluding postage)
Skies Of Arcadia
Shenmue
Giga Wing
Daytona USA 2001
Confidential Mission

In addition to this
Official Gun : About $20
Official Arcade Stick : $15
ChaCha Amigo Maracas Boxed : $20

So - I'd let the whole shebang go for 170 yo-yos O.N.O - That's everything including console, cables etc....

Or am I being totally unreasonable ?

I would be willing to offer 50 euro for the console and accessories

50 can be bettered but how much do you expect..

True - but most of these only come with controllers and some include a gun. I have Controllers, gun, arcade stick, ChaCha Amigo Maracas and Dance Mat.
Also - Shipping to Ireland would cost

Oh yeah - I do have to fish it out of my attic and test it, if somebody is interested in taking it !

EDIT : Actually just saw this thread:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054902029&highlight=Dreamcast
So I reckon my price of 170 is just about right, considering the extra accessories and games.

honru

Nothing I'm really interested in there.

€170 is a fair enough price if anyone is willing to accept it.

Cool, will hold you to that

I reckon you will end up splitting anyway, its very hard to sell a pick package like that on boards.

Lemlin

I wouldn't sell it if I was you. I sold mine years ago and I really regret it now.

Jimi-Spandex

If you split I'd like to call

Ready 2 Rumble Round 2
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Crazy Taxi
Space Channel 5
Rayman 2

Are they all boxed?

deadl0ck

Yep - all boxed.

I'm still undecided about splitting it

jesus_thats_gre

Me wants, me wants

monkeyfudge

I'd offer €150 for the whole thing...
