The elusive black Dreamcast.





Might I add I have one of these elusive black dreamcasts ?

What did you pay for the black one and what came with it? It was still boxed?

You got it @ thinkgeek right?

It is impossible to get ripped off when you are buying a Dreamcast.

Well,for me,since my first consoles were a PS3 and an Xbox Elite.Never played either before in my life until last summer.


WUT? What age are you then? You need to buy some old consoles or play them emus ASAP!


@ Blood

type:

www.ebay.de and keep an eye on the Dreamcast stuff... I bet some will send it to USA even. The Germans dump the Dreamcasts for incredible low prices.  Aren't they sold in black on Ebay in USA? Must be expensive I guess....

 
 

I think the black Dreamcast was a limited run for some kind of special sports package they had available at some point. I haven't been able to find one.

 
 
I have that Dreamcast you're talking about Bioodmask.  I normally wouldnt come off of it, but if you have something that's worth a trade I might consider it.

Well you can today, its not that expensive to get one 2nd hand you know...
What is expensive by the way is the LAN adapter for the Dreamcast, freaking 100 bucks to replace the 56k6 modem LOL
BTW I am thinking: it should be possible to build such a LAN adapter yourself with some parts I guess? I mean it has a Realtek card inside, the connections of the Dreamcast is where the trouble starts...
 
http://www.seganerds.com/2008/08/08/dreamcast-broadband-adapter-in-stock-at-play-asia/
 
Oh and never ever buy the Dreamcast LAN adapter (that is 10mbit and doesn't work with everything as far as I've read up on it), the Dreamcast Broadband adapter is 10/100mbit and should work.
 
haha I just heard which 14 games there are with my newly purchased Dreamcast:

Beats of Rage, Sonic Adventure, Tokyo highway, Crazy taxi, Zombie Revenge, Nightmare creature2, Fighting Force 2, Final Fight : Last round, Mortel Kombat Gold, Lodoss, Soul Calibur, The House of the dead 2, chuchu Rocket, Suzuki Alstars

Damn, nice collection there

Hey Bman, I had a Dreamcast before remember and still have some games for it... Sold a few back after my Dreamcast died, can't remember exactly which but I'm pretty sure I still have Powerstone 1&2 (I liked the first better back then) and House of the Deat 2 comes with this Dreamcast + lightgun ;-)

Seaman thats a strange one there haha need a microphone for it right?

Nah not really... It gets interesting when played on the original console ;-)

Attached the screen of my best buy this year! HAH
Typing of the Death: here I come! 
 
EDIT
 
A day later in the mean time I even got better news from the seller, the Dreamcast and all the stuff is in its original boxing and look like new... Can you imagine that for that price. Insane!

Tonight I know if the HotD 2 pack in original boxing will be mine. Hhhmmmm what will I buy next for the DC from these nice Germany neighbours ;-)
Oh and for those that want to play import games on their console (also games fixed on a less legal way so to say), you'll need Utopia (several versions out, 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 are easy to find in a package) which is said only to work with the V1 DC's (its on the bottom of the DC), there is this DC-X that should work also on V2 DC's but that one is harder to find. As its not commercially on sale anymore, its on snesorama/Megaupload:

Got it myself there and will test it when my Dreamcast has arrived, don't know if its V1 or V2 yet...

Could be Smokey, but you never get them like they were... .Certainly not those with the great hardware extra's like Samba de Amigo hahaha

I just bought two Cha Cha Amgio 3rd party samba's for a good price @ Ebay... You won't get it on the PS3 haha

Now I have to get that House of the Death 2 gun/game pack in original boxing and I'm set. Oh no, the Fishing controller & Bass fishing game I also need to get....

Re:Bought a Dreamcast... Again! - Sunday, October 11, 2009 7:00 AM
So we're some time since I bought the Cha Cha Amigo two sets, since then I bought a House of the Death gun/game pack (just for collecting it, since I already have two lightguns), a seperate fishing controller/rod with 3 original fishing games, and the latest buys are two dreamcasts, one with 3 controllers a fishing rod, lightgun and 13 original games (just a few double one with my first deal above, these games are added:


Resident Evil:Code Veronica, Virtua Tennis 2, Aerowings, Metropolitan Street Racer, Sega Bass Fishing, ChuChu Rocket, Ultimate Fighting Championship, Stunt GP, Tee Off, Phantasy Star Online, Soul Caliber, Tokyo Highway Challenge, Virtua Fighter 3



Coming with a VGA box for better output (worth 20 to 30 bucks alone), 4 controllers, another fishing rod (LOL), rumble packs, VMU's,  extra long cables, DC-X bootdisk (pretty rare, goes for about 20 bucks alone)


So I'm set for the ultimate Dreamcast party :-)
Those searching for great deals.... Search the German and UK Ebay if you live in Europe!
