Dreamcast!

Who else here has a Dreamcast and absolutely loves it? Got any stories? Favorite Game? Take it from here!

I love mine, it's probably my favorite videogame system. I have 60-something games for it, my favorite being Jet Set Radio.

I remember I wanted it really bad. So did my sister. On Christmas we got tons of money from relatives and together had well over $500. My dad said he'd take us out to buy a DC with the money, but my mom said no because it was a waste. I wish I got one. I used to play it at my friends house all the time. Maybe I'll go buy a used one at EB Games! Anyone know how much one might cost?

Shen Mue I played with a passion. Still do. I love Dreamcast. Possibly the best system I ever owned.

Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is very good game. Any team with Cable in it is pretty much guaranteed to win.

Voltron broke my Dreamcast...or at least something broke it. When I plug the cords in, the Dreamcast comes on, but there's no video or audio. Maybe I just need new cables.

Other than that Dreamcast was damn great. Shenmue, man. Shenmue.

VIRTUAL ON KICKS ASS!

In Oratio Tangram (sp?) they had models like all the Gundams from Gundam Wing.

Temjin-Wing
Apharmd-Sand Rock
Belgdor-Heavy Arms
Viper-Epyon

thats all I can remember. They're was a guy with a Scyte that was like Deathscythe. I don't remember anyone like Shenlong though.

Oh yeah, I'm forgetting Phantasy Star Online. What an addicting game. I still play it online to this day.

And oh yeah, this right here is the video that sealed the deal in me wanting a Dreamcast: (You may want to right-click and save as or the equivalent)

For 50 bucks you can get the system, mem card, and 15 games at Eb.

But my bro got one for 50 right after the fall of Sega, and got tons of games, I loved it. I got games like Sonic Adventure 2, one of the best Sonic games ever.

And he got a disc that had EVERY sega genesis game ever made. I never played so much tmnt.

Phantasy Star Online?

It was basically a futuristic Diablo, if you can picture that. You team up with 3 buddies and go beat the crap out of monsters, level up, get new weapons, etc.

It sounds like such a simple game, but it's hard to explain why it's fun.

You know, that's not such a stretch. Head over to http://www.dcemulation.com It's a site that has a bunch of emulators, ports, and homebrewn stuff for the DC. Basically, you burn the emulator and some roms onto a CD, and you can play SNES, NES, Genesis, or whatever the system is games on your DC...

Same with ports. You can play stuff like Doom on your DC.

Then there are MP3 players, MPEG players, VCD, Divx players, etc...

Dreamcast is such a stylized system, and always will RULE!

Lrt's see, I've got...

Sonic Adventure
marvel vs. Capcom
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Capcom vs. SNK
Capcom vs, SNK 2
Sonic Adventure 2
Crazy Taxi
Crazy Taxi 2
Hydro Thunder
Tetris Online

and about 5 others I'm forgetting...

That system will never die in my book. They still make games for it in Japan.
