Cool i picked up a load of demo discs a while back good fun to play and sometimes find games u totally forgot about on them aswell.
 
I used to have all of those. Stupidly threw them out a few years back. Really wish I hadn't. :p Often fancied returning to the odd demo or two.
 
Never been much of a demo player on the playstations.. Mainly cos the mags with them on cost too much, but. Can remember the floppy disk Amiga ones..

There was a green... Cannon fodder/sensible soccer Christmas special, I would love to have that now so I could picture frame it..
 
Few more bits of joy for the saturn

Loved Clockwork Knight back when it was released, didn't push the boundaries in gameplay but looked stunning back then, another game I loved was Astal on the Saturn, again another stunning game.

Always used to try and keep up to date with new games using the USA mags that could be sourced via various newsagents...EGM & Gamepro! :D
 
How much did that cost you?

I'm struggling to find one for a reasonable price these days :(

They had one in Insane Game Bridgwater when I was last there. I think it was either £40 or £45. I think I paid £40 for mine with one unboxed game and one controller. What made it worse was it had a GAME sticker on the box that said, New £35!

Whether it's a good deal or not I paid:

Console, 2 pads, Dragon and Cybermorph unboxed - £60 posted.

Doom, Bubsy, Cannon Fodder and Theme Park - all complete (look new) - £50 posted.

Power Drive - complete (the only game I really wanted the system for) - £20 posted.

Mod that Dreamcast with a VGA port if you are half handy with a soldering iron! Totally worth it!

Will be running my original one with a VGA box. I don't have any soldering equipment and the last time I used a soldering iron was in secondary school (around 15 years ago now.... :o).

I do want to look into something like that in the future though. I would look at both VGA mod & Region mod at the same time.

Just watched Adam Koralik's video on Youtube showing his complete Dreamcast collection.... :eek: It has made me want to pick up another DC, strip it down and respray it completely black. :D
