Dreamcast

Just bought dremcst for $12.

The kid couldnt find the power cord though. But my old Tivo power cord fits fine. My question is though...Did the Dremcst Ehhh C dpter or did it hve uhh plain straight forward cord?


Plese excuse the lck of Ehh's. My keybord is shot nd I'm witing for replcement.

The power supply for the dreamcast was internal so any cord that fits should work fine. Why did you stop using the tivo?

edit: Look here to see the power supply. You could potentially replace it with a PC power supply http://www.mavrinac.com/technical/dreamcast/index.html

Lucky . Any games?

Thanks Ciper. I bought the series two so the old one just sits around. I found that you can dl mp3 and video files on it though....hmmm :].

For games I have
Time Stalkers
Wild Metal
Silver
Crazy Taxi
and Resident Evil:Code Veronica

Yeah, I got a great deal. Any games you'd recommened?

Ill assume for the moment you will be buying original copies so rare games will not be mentioned.

First you HAVE to own Shenmue. No Sega fan will take you seriously if you don't

Quake 3 arena can be played over the network
DOA2 is a must have fighter followed by Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Jet grind radio is a rollerblading graphiti game that everyone will like
MDK2 is a great single player FPS
Chu Chu rocket and Bust a move are the best puzzles
Mars Matrix and Gunbird 2 are perfect scrolling shooters


Edit: How could I forget Bangai-o (crazy robot action), Space Channel 5 (like Parrapa), Bomberman online, Resident Evil Code Veronica (the best version available) and of course Crazy Taxi (very true to the arcade)

Will you consider playing copied games? No modchip is needed...
If so here is a list worth looking at http://www.racketboy.com/retro/2006/01/essential-imports-best-import.html
