Dreamcast Boombox

Post by J T »

There's just something about this thing that gives it so much retro charm. I wish I had one.

If they'd paint the bezel around the controller ports silver or the silvery blue, it would be complete. :)

The dreamcast can play mp3´s!
you burn the disc together with a little program.
Thing is, I remember it not playing all mp3´s, but still!
