I fancy buying one. As strange as it may seem, I'm still irked that I never completed a few of the games I had, plus the fact I'd love to buy one again!
Anyone on here randomly got one chucked away that they might sell?
And, if I do buy one, any new restrictions or anything given the new TV's and technologies? Would I still be able to play it okay? Any problems I may have?
Cheers

mate, careful buying used.
if you leave them soo long without power they have an onboard battery that never fully recharges or something - you can be soo far into a game and your dreamcast just cuts out - mine did it! found it this was the reason.
if your gonna buy one 2nd hand ask to see it working for a while

Don't you people know anything about Dreamcast - where's:
Soul Calibur?
Shenmue?
MSR (Metropolis Street Racer)?
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2?
Typing of the Dead?

Thanks... Yeah I know, but what can you do? Many are on eBay, but not sure what I should go for. Will it still work on new TV's etc?

Shenmue is one of the ones I want to complete!
I used to love Powerstone as well! And obviously shit loads more.
