!RESURRECTED! BIG LIST - Stuff for that new Dreamcast

Page 33 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
Let me be the first to report: I got my KBToys.com orders. Sega Smashpack, Sonic Adventure, Baseball 2k1 and Crazy Taxi. Oh, yeah, and 4 controllers and 4 clear blue VMUs 🙂 I didn't really even want the games, I have some of them already. I'll probably fleaBay 'em.

Also, I got a big box from Baysoftgames.com. Enforcer Arcade stick (white w/ orange trim, not all green like in the product description), Hais mini light gun, 2 Nyko Hyperpacks (4x mem and rumble in one), two controller extensions and a brand new Seaman w/ microphone. Not bad for <$95 shipped. Haven't had a chance to try any of them out yet. It looks like Christmas morning in my living room (only better!)

This thread is INCREDIBLE! Does anyone know where I can get Shenmue, Grandia II and Skies of Arcadia. I want to get these games very bad. Anyone have them, and looking to sell/trade? Please let me know. You can email me at: klizaj@rpi.edu
or PM me.

Thanks all, and God bless

I saw Shenmue at Sears for $19.99. Baysoftgames.com has it for $19.99 too. Definitely pick it up there if you need any accessories, they have good prices on quality stuff and cheap shipping ($6.99 flat rate.) My friend has Skies of Arcadia and thought it was pretty easy/boring. Not nearly what he expected from the reviews. Baysoftgames has Skies of Arcadia for $14.99 used. They have Grandia II, also used, for $24.99.

EDIT: Oops, I take it back. Baysoft doesn't have the used titles in stock. But if they did, those would be the prices 🙂
 
can anyone tell me about Seaman? is it good, fun? Ive heard good and bad about it. Baysoft has it for a good price though

My JCPenny controllers also had a box that was kinda taped up.
The controller cord was all nicely wrapped and everything though, and it feels like its new. I've had no problems so far.
 
JasonH: If you don't mind, please try your new minigun with the VGA box (assuming you have one) on your monitor and let us know how well it works. Thanks!
 
Target over in Gainesville,FL has Tennis 2k2 (one box left) for $20.99!!!

Hopefully, its a nationwide thing 😀

Edit: spelling
 
I have Virtua Tennis. How much different in Tennis 2K2? Is it worth buying? I'm not really a big tennis fan, but VT looks good and it's pretty fun to play.

Went to Funcoland yesterday and picked up a used Sega Mega VMU (800 blocks!) for $6.99! Woohoo!
I love Funcoland!


BTW, Bump this sucka!
 
Tallest1 - I'm in Gainesville FL. And I'm really hoping that game is there for me tonight. Dreamcast gods, please be with me.


Anyone played and have experience with Conflict Zone?
 
I don't know if this has been posted, but I saw Marvel vs. Capcom 2 at Amazon for $20.00. Seems like a good price. Most of these of goingfor almost $40.00 on E-bay. 😀

Edit: I got my order confirmation, but now it looks like it's out of stock....:disgust:

Yeah.. Well.. It would be great only I don't think Amazon will ever have this game in stock again.. I wish they'd just remove it. They are only teasing us.. Getting this game is probably as likely as picking up a TXR again for $10 from Amazon..
 
Got a question for you Dreamcast experts..

I have a couple of games with cracked jewel cases. Does anyone know for sure if these jewel cases are anything special or are they just your originary, garden variety jewel case that you can pick up at most any store?

Thanks and please let me know?

They're mostly standard issue jewel cases. Only ones that are different are the double cd ones that are the size of a regualr jewel case.
 
Oh MAN did I almost land the sweetest deal of them all today. I was at a Gamestop, first one I've seen in Ohio, and was checking out their DC stuff. I start to look at their used peripherals and saw the following:

DC Broad Band Adapter (USED)
$19.99

I grabbed that thing in a hurry only to find that it was one of those 4-1 controller converter things. I was so bummed. Oh well, I picked up a keyboard and typing of the dead for 32+ change. I'm gonna have to keep checking out the used stuff, I might stumble on a gold mine one day.
 
Oh man.. Amazon had MvC2 in stock this afternoon? How soon was it posted on the main page?

Did anyone here get in on the deal?

Sal
 
Can't believe nobody tried this yet....


Sal, The Dreamcast CD Cases are indeed rare birds. I happen to have several extra I can let go for $5 each since you are a fellow Anandtecher.








🙂
 


<< Oh man.. Amazon had MvC2 in stock this afternoon? How soon was it posted on the main page? >>

Not sure when Iceman first posted the price, but I updated the list at 11:39 a.m.

By 11:58, Amazon was OOS. :Q

BTW: It WOULD have been posted sooner, but farkin' forum lag ate 3 posts :|, and I had to get crackin' on some stuff at work.
 
I got in on the MvC2 deal, I think. I received a order confirmation from Amazon saying the order is processing for shipment. I posted the deal right after I ordered it. I checked back about 5 minutes later and POOF!!.....gone. :|

I hope my order goes through. $20 for MvC2 is a steal. People on E-bay have actually paid over $70 for this game. I'll keep ya posted. Good luck and keep this thread going!! I've got a pretty good collection thanks to this thread. Thanks TallGeese. 😀

Tennis 2K2 is just as fun as Virtua Tennis, and I would even dare say a little better. The players don't dive as much and when they do dive they get up a lot quicker. Plus, you get to play with the women too. Take it from someone with a callous on their thumb, go buy it.
 
No one in town has a Dreamcast and I can't find any online. I haven't looked through this whole thread yet, so I don't know if it was mentioned where you can get one.
 
Stopped at the local Target here in MN and picked up Sonic Adv 2 for $20.90 and Sega Marine Fishing for $5.50. Now I just need to find a fishing controller.
