Pyongyang

Not a bad collection. Could do better.

Ten minutes in, and i'm still scrolling :eek:

I know, it's a bizarre collection. You should check out another guy's Zelda collection on there, amazing stuff. Reminds me of a Mega Man/Rockman one I saw recently.

I actually want to buy a Dreamcast now, I think I'd get more out of it than the Saturn because all I want is SHMUPS and apparently the Dreamcast is the sultan of that genre, even having SHMUPS still developed for it even today if I am not mistaken?

Does anyone have any advice for buying a Dreamcast? Buy a Jap, US or UK console? Price range for a loose one? Where can you get them chipped? And so on...

What do you think? Dreamcast or Saturn?

Dreamcast for sure!

I will have a dreamcast up for sale very soon. I'm hitting the road out of dodge around the end of May so i'm selling off all my cherished stuff that realistically can't come with me (and tbh, i've not turned it on in about 2 years)

The little cousins have their grubby eyes on it but i'd rather see it in a safe and appreciated home.

There's a gun, wheel, several pads, some games that i can't recall fully (powerstone, hotd2, pg racing to name but a handful)

I need to get it all organised, take pics, and decide on a fair price. I'll report back in a few days if interested

Sounds interesting, keep me posted! Incidentally, is it a J/US or UK system?

UK as far as I know. How could I check? I feel I should apologise for my noobness, my game playing days are unfortunately getting away from me. . .

I think NTSC ones have an orange logo, PAL ones have a blue logo. There's also a black logo I think. Not sure what that one is for. Dev kit perhaps?

It's a PAL, i.e. UK. Again, i'll lash up pics and full details when I get a chance

Groovy. Drop me a PM if you're keen, I think it's against the rules to post ad's in this forum.

Was that a Train Conductor Controller about half way down? Wierd controller with a lever and a handle... Bizarre!!!

I got a little teary-eyed once I started seeing the Yukawa stuff.

I don't think we'll ever see this side of SEGA again.
It's like their soul died with the DC...

I'd love to see Sega get back into the console business. I'd trade my Girlfriend for a Dreamcast 2, but not my 3DO collection

Looks like someone else will nab themselves a fine console from you, I just bought one on Adverts.ie this morning (my hunger for Japanese SHMUPS was too much), sorry.

Appreciate the offer though. Thanks.
