That is nice. Volume controls on the box, quite luxurious.

How much did that run you, if you don't mind me asking?

$35 shipped.

I just checked - that seller is all out. Looks like he only had 10 of them.

Wow. I have zero recollection of ever seeing a DC controller like that. Looks fantastic!

That's a pretty sweet price on those VGA boxes. Looks like getting back on DC-Talk proved rather lucrative for you :wink:
Although i recalled you mentioning already owning a DC VGA adapter prior to this one. Mind if I ask which other model you own?

Well if you live anywhere other than Japan and weren't/aren't much into importing for the platform, then that would explain your lack of knowledge regarding this particular controller.

I own a White and a brand new Blue (SNK) model that's never been used. A good friend of mine owns the other two variants which are a Black (Capcom) model and a clear transparent version that was never sold.

I've honestly thought about plotting against his life for that clear model :evil:

But good friends are rather hard to come by these days :lol:

That's the VGA box I have, courtesy of Wipeoutguy a few years ago. It is definitely handy to have all of the plugs on it.

I used to have this model:

but back when I needed to raise $ to build my PC I had no move a lot of stuff that I knew would move quickly. So that's why I'm sort of replacing some of my more coveted items (like the Ascii pad as well). :)

Very nice. What shop do you use to buy your VGA boxes?


I used eBay.


I paid about 30 for mine, but it is a regular cheap China made cable (not box).

You got a steal.

I grabbed it off of eBay as well. I got lucky, and saw that someone posted on Dreamcast-Talk that they had found a box of these and were putting them up for sale w/ proceeds going to Child's Play. This particular model is pretty fancy.
