Seriously, you can only find 2 Dreamcast games under 30 bucks?


Do a search on Amazon.com, punch in Dreamcast games.

You're welcome.

Yeah, man, you're the only one who can make that decision. Still, I think being that they generally go for $30 or so you're better off keeping it. I'd never sell off any of my consoles. I may not play a system for years and just get the itch one day. Just my opinion.

Don't do it. I had thoughts also on getting rid of it. There are soo many games under 20.00. Hell i've seen marvel vs capcom 1 and 2 for 20.00 and less. I believe the dreamcast is one of the best system's ever.

That's the price of retro gaming/collecting.

I sold mine a few years back only to regret it not even weeks later when November 29th rolled around (Shenmue).

Now I own two of them: one modded one not.

Trust me, you will always regret selling a console. Always.

Keep it. Cherish it.

Sell it and you will regret it. Your actions will haunt you for the rest of your days... or until you get another Dreamcast. Then you'll be fine.

I say go the burned route. If you come across a game you really like and see it for a bargain and you want to, I say then buy it. But if it is a matter of none of the games really appeal to you and even if burning them on a CDr you still don't play it, then sell it. I sold my Genesis a couple months ago because I seldom play it, and I don't miss it at all. It probably helps that I have that Genesis compilation on the PS3 and pretty much every good Sega made game is on that disc. I also recently sold off my Saturn because while there are some REALLY good games, they are really expensive, and you have to pretty much buy them online because not many stores sell Saturn games out by me, except for the cheap crappy games that I already have or don't want. The only games I really played were Virtua Fighter 2 and Daytona. VF5 Final Showdown is pretty good and so is the PSN HD remake of Daytona. So meh. It's up to you. This website has some great articles for good Dreamcast games.
NES, SNES, PS1, N64, DC, PS2, GCN, Wii, PS3, 360, GB, GBC, GBA, GBA SP, PSP 3000, and 3DS XL
