I personally do not like the design.

From a collector's point of view I always preferred the Japanese version of the games because of the packaging/artwork/originality. As for the Japanese Dreamcast, it's the same reason. I would rather not deal with mod-chips or swapping discs. If you're able to find one go ahead and grab it.

This location from the video looks pretty dank. Working at an arcade and going there to play arcades are two different worlds. I use to work at a local arcade during summer breaks and let me tell you it sucks. But going in there with a bunch of your buddies as a social gathering spot was priceless. ...

You can keep looking around Ebay which is your easiest bet. I use to look around for brand new consoles for my collection but all the steep prices turned me off. I just enjoy what I can get a hold of now in some-what mind condition and not worry about everything being brand new.

Most used ones on ebay are in good condition. I got 2 off of ebay as backups and they are in mint condition. Get a used one and be done.

Already in Japan it has sold out, and I am sure it will be the same in the US as well. But I am taking the look-n-wait approach here, I mean look at the launch titles!!! Where's Star Fox, Zelda, and Kid Icarus??? For now its the "3D without glasses" that is grabbing the attention, not the...

Dementium was probably the 1 game that caught my attention when it was first released. Aside from that...Mario Kart looks decent and mario 64 ds.

I doubt it. I ended up canceling my pre-order after seeing the launch titles. I'd say give it a couple of months, you'll get used games, possible used system as well. Just keep checking Amazon for console deals, they do business well.

I just looked it up and the entire packaging does look pretty nice. Hope you get to play it somehow!

Looks minty! Awesome. Enjoy it!

I recently just picked one up too! I'm still hunting for a red one - possible good deal on the Mother 3 bundle!
