Re: Dreamcast Video Output

My 32 inch LCD HDTV doesn't have VGA, but my 24 inch LED HDTV does; I think I might have to think about investing in a VGA cable for my Dreamcast and seeing what all the hype is... :)

Re: Diesel Dan's Room Tour 2

This is definitely the classiest game room I've ever seen. This is exactly the kind of game room I've always pictured having when I'm out on my own. I'm gonna try to post my own little photo tour next week (though it'll be NOTHING compared to the collections I've seen here), but since I'm still in c...

Re: CRT TV Question

I've got a widescreen HDTV that I use for most games with an older CRT TV beside it for light gun games. I've never had a problem with putting my NES or even 2600 games on my 32 inch, but I know a of people don't like older games on newer TVs. That's largely a matter of preference, I think. If you'r...

Re: Wclem game "home"

Geeze....I'm always impressed with my own 450 game collection, and then I see this....Holy crap, dude. Other than the number of boxes you have, I think the most impressive part is the massive number of Saturn games. You cannot imagine the envy I feel right now....

Re: Dreamcast Video Output

Low resolution games like Wii Sports will show that fact when they are over nice signals. You'll notice more that the characters are more jagged because the component cables are showing you a more clear signal. The upside to that though is there is less blur, more colors, better shadows etc. But ga...

Re: Best e-store for retro game purchases?

I've been toying with the idea of ordering a PAL import Shenmue II for Dreamcast, but I have a hard time finding anything but Japanese imports. Does anyone know of a good site for PAL imports?

Re: Dreamcast Video Output

Yeah, I changed it to 480p, and some games definitely do look better (Super Mario Galaxy, Red Steel 2), but I guess I expected more of a difference with some games. I've also noticed that some games (namely Wii Sports) seems more jagged than with Composite.

Re: Dreamcast Region

Awesome, thanks. I downloaded the Utopia Boot Disk. Do I just burn that to a CD-R? Sorry, I know I'm a noob when it comes to anything about imports, modding, backdoors, etc.

Re: Dreamcast Video Output

I know they shouldn't, but I've never noticed a huge difference on my Wii after switching from Composite to Component. Some games look noticeably better, but for the most part, they look roughly the same. :?

Dreamcast Region

Is there a way to play European Dreamcast titles on my North American system? I REALLY want to play Shenmue II, but I don't really want to buy an Xbox, at least not right now. Do I have any options other than sucking it up and buying either an Xbox or a European Dreamcast?
