Shame you're painting it, vinyl dye would have been a far superior idea.

Why would anyone do that to a Dreamcast.

So disrespectful ;_;

Just get on and play Jet Set Radio!!!! One of the best games released on the Dreamcast and still on my top ten all time video games (iv also managed to finish it and get all the characters which was pretty hard)

Tons of games on the DC, Jet Set Radio being one of the best for sure.

We all know Shenmue was the highlight of the Dreamcast

Phantasy Star Online baby!

Soul Calibur, the visuals blew me away in '99 and the score was epic. Best beat 'em up ever made imo.

Soul Calibur was epic, Voldo was always my favourite. Shenmue was absolutely fantastic as well, playing on the Hang On arcade machine was awesome.

Yeah the first Soul Calibur still remains my most favourite one, even if I do enjoy countless hours customising my own fighters in III and IV.

Indeed the music was epic. Great stuff by a synthesized orchestra. Hell the music in the entire series overall is epic itself and one of my personal favourites. Some bombastic and good recurring themes & motifs.

Just can't faut the game, it was brilliant in every way.

Teutonic proportions of epicness!

The original plastic finish on the DC was infamous for yellowing - this DC will eventually have:

Was it i've had mine since they came out and it's still white and of course working, i really disliked the dreamcast game cases.

You so much as look at them funny, or at the wrong angle, and the hinges would snap.
Worst cases in gaming history.

I was always stuck on unlocking some little hooded rat*, finished the game easy enough, but could never unlock this character, it caused much anger. Was always more careful with the controller rage on the DC, as I didn't want to smash the precious VMU.

*Doesn't really help I guess, sure there was a hint of ginger hair... Looks like I'll have to dig the DC back out and find out.

Ohhh the guy you had to chase through the sewers?!?! There was only one moment harder then that, where you had to complete the people who dressed like dinosaurs territory in one huge lap as the last section didnt work right with the choppers shooting at you...

Really need to crack this out again at some point!
