I wish my dreamcast was that white

 

[-Mike-]

Did anyone report it?

 

[JoeBoi]

Cos its copies.

Not like Sega are losing out... To be fair I'd pay that for the Dreamcast and what it came with rather than the copied games.

I thought the Amiga 1200's went for a lot more money than that?? Would that just be a standard 1200 or would that include a few extra's like accelerator cards and ram and hard drive??

Amazing what's the spec n stuff?

Wish I could build something like that. How well does the dreamcast run on there? Would love something similar with GameCube playability.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

To be honest with you anyone can build one. I will post updates once they are done! Hopefully tonight.

Dreamcast would run smooth on a good system. I am putting a Duel Core 4GB ram, 1TB hard disk in.

Does anyone know of a place I can get a replacement top cover for an N64? Mine has been cracked and there is a piece missing from the front left corner!

Best bet to buy a cheap spares one from Ebay and use that? I wouldn't have thought anywhere will make these anymore.

Certainly, This is what my basic list consists of. If your building one from scratch it can cost between £250 - £50000. Depends what parts you already have and how fast you want the PC. Because these games are emulation games you don't need a high spec PC.

Parts I purchased.
- Outer Arcade Case (Flat Pack DIY)
- 19" TFT Screen (Not Widescreen)
- Motherboard, processor, memory, power supply.
- Arcade USB to iPac Controller Motherboard
- 2 Ball Top Joysticks, 14 Buttons,
- 2 arcade speakers + amplifier
- Decals, Vinyl, Artwork
- Cable Clips / Tie Wraps
