keep the dreamcast, this is a no-brainer(drainer) if you're a true "broke gamer." play all the games you have them burn what you don't until you're no longer broke and can afford to buy more games.

plus, and this was already mentioned, you'll get WAY more out of the nintendo stuff than the DC stuff. though i'd be happy to take one of those lightguns off your hands...

Haha, yeah. Same here.

I'm gonna second o.p's statement. Sell what you don't want here on racketboy. (And I'm not just saying that because I've been picking up N64 and GC stuff lately. >_>)

Definitely have a Ye Fore Sale thread here. You'll even unload your DC stuff (presuming I'm here and can beat everybody else off with a stick.)
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

I got some stuff today at the flea market.

Went kinda late, but still got lucky.

I found a Sega Genesis 2 for free, a guy was giving stuff away. It's scratched and kinda beat-up, but hey, it was free!

Another seller was finally putting stuff away, had lots of random electronics. So I made a bundle.

Two original PS1 memory cards (red and dark gray), NASCAR '06 Total Team Control Xbox new in wrapper, outlaw volleyball-red hot Xbox blockbuster exclusive CIB, Shinesman DVD (some old anime), scph-7501 modded PS1.

And she sold it all to me for $10

I suspected it was nodded since it had a sticker over the screwhole, and it had disc two of rival schools in it.

Not too shabby :mrgreen:

I went to goodwill (Aka the cave of wonders) and found a stack of NES games, out of which I bought Super Mario 3, Super Mario/Duckhunt, Street Fighter 2010, Vindicators, Little Nemo the Dream Master, and Battle Chess. All of this costed me about $18.
So yeah, I think I came out with a pretty good deal. 8)

(Edit: Now I just need to get an NES to actually play the games in my growing NES game pile. xD)

Pretty nice. Does the US version have the soundtrack mini-sampler disc? If so, you should pop that in and listen to it.

That game is awesome. It is my second-favorite PD game - which is saying something because I love all of them - and one of the best games on the Xbox. Please enjoy it!

So maybe an obvious question - how can you tell for sure a SAT-J or DC-J game is factory sealed. Didn't they use very easy to replicate y-corner folds with stock cello wrap? I've gotten "sealed/new" games for both systems and on opening, some were very clearly used (bends on manual, prints on disc, writing on reg. card, etc).

I know PS1 and PS2 J used encoded wrap w/the company name in holographic letters, despite they easy to replicate y-fold, so at least you could still tell.

I know sealed games are a very much hot commodity to fake right now since so many are easy to replicate with a little research and the right machine (which are now cheap and sold everywhere).
