dreamcast prices

One has a busted controller port and the two Japanese systems have disc spinning motor problems of some sort.

the port is easy, only thing you need to do is figure how the fan connects to it, then yu can ask raz for the correct port type.

what does the gd-rom do? not read? not spin? you prolly just need some new Gd-roms.

shit, i need to sell a dc, i fucking have 3.

As do I: a JP one - modded, a vanilla US, and a vanilla JP.
Why you gonna sell?

i want to sell because i bought 1 on a whim and had 2 for awhile. last one i sold for $60 plus shipping, all wires with a vmu.

im buying another one as a backup, i dont want to be in 2012 when almost all dreamcasts are dead and wamm, not have any way to play dreamcast games again (besides emu)

I would use the ports form one the dead ones, that way you dont need to spend money.

Doesn't read, and doesn't spin all too well either. I think the motors are knackered in them. For how much it'd cost me to grab separate GD-roms, it'd probably be cheaper for me to get new Dreamcasts.

Yeah. I don't see the point in parts replacement. I picked up my last dreamcast for $1.50 and it was working.

[RyaNtheSlayA]

If RTS meant systems, then I'd say $20 to $40 is good. For games, depending on the game (rarity etc), that's still good. I don't see the issue either way.

i dont make alot of money.

20 to 40 bones for a game system which effectively has a whole library made free if you have anything faster than dial-up sounds damn good to me too. Now the Prices on Nintendos are ridiculous, especially when considering how many there. It's usually better just to buy broken Nintendos and spend the time to fix them so you have a bunch of nice, spare systems lying around. I'm still thinking about choosing to get a DC or a Genny, but honestly, I'm thinking DC all the way if prices are that low.

[RyaNtheSlayA]

i would get both, you can usually find a gene 2 for 20 and a DC for around 25. I dont make alot of money so when i go on ebay where a game is 15 bucks then buy it, then go to the store a year later and find it for 5 it makes me mad, but the store hardly ever gets a good DC game in.

used gamecubes are less than $35.
