    I Want a Dreamcast!

    Lately, I've had the biggest urge to play/own a Dreamcast. I want to get one, along with the controllers, VMUs, some of the old games I used to play.

    What I wanted to do was get an old NBA 2K game and play that before the new one comes out. Some of the other games I know I want are:

    Toy Commander
    Street Fighter 3rd Strike
    Shenmue
    Capcom vs. SNK
    Marvel vs. Capcom (the first one)

    Anyone know where I could get a DC?

      They seem to never have them in stock. I put my name on my local Play N Trade's wish list to have them call me when/if they get one in.

        I have one I dont use and could probably part with but the last time I tried to play a game I think it couldnt read the disc or something so Im not sure if its dusty, bad laser or the game disc was dirty. In good conscience I couldnt sell it to someone and then not have it work.

            Shenmue was SO fun... Why couldn't they have made a third???

            Good times.

              Still have my D'cast...it's cherry! Haven't played it in over a year, but I can't part with it because I know 1 day I will get the uncontrollable urge to play some Toy Commander ( one of the most underrated games of all time!). I still remember playing NFL online the first time...it blew my mind...and the graphics of the NBA2K series...it was like "games will never look any better than this!" There is a really good indie "old school" game shop here in Austin called Gameover. I go there sometimes, and their stuff is good, clean, and inspected. They have a website (I'm computer illiterate so I can't put a link up for ya) but give 'em a call, I 'm sure they ship out.

                  I'm not sure if you'll have one near you but I like to go to this store that sells used cd's, games, vhs's, and dvd's, called buybacks. It's pretty good for finding older systems and games, I remember seeing a dreamcast there for sale, but I'm not sure how much it cost.

                    I've got an extensive DC collection with over 30 games(all originals with jewel boxes and instructions) and every first party peripheral(racing wheel,arcade stick,fishing controller,keyboard,mouse),4 vmus' plus a 4X vmu and S-video cables.
                    I have NBA 2K1 and 2,Shenmue,and Toy Commander from your list.

                    I'm not really trying to unload the stuff,but I am willing to sell/trade to a loving home.

                      Shenmue was a masterpiece on DC. I got the 2nd one for xbox but it didn't suck me in near as much. And the fact that almost nobody bought the 2nd one sealed the fate of the third game that was originally planned.

                        I finally got one from my local Edward McKay's Bookstore on Friday for 25 bucks and it works fine. Now I gotta work on getting controllers, games, VMUs and the whole nine.

                          Good to see I'm not the only one that's had this urge. We have some places around here called "The Exchange" that always seem to have one or two Dreamcast systems laying around and I don't know how I've resisted buying one of them

                            I've still got my DC. I was thinking about firing up some Shenmue the other day myself.
