New guy in town

Post by brettvsshark »

Whats up everybody, I'm brett. I'm from the midwest and I'm a Dreamcast dork.

So far, I'm working pretty hard on my collection lately (with the help of eBay). I've got some good titles and some bad. But, I mostly want to get all the games I had when I was a kid (I'm 23 now ha). Back in the day, I stupidly sold all of my DC stuff after my console stopped working. It seemed like one of the controller ports went out. Maybe its fixable, maybe not. But, I still have the broken system. I used to have an INSANE amount of games... Now, I have almost got them back.

But, anyways... Here is my collection! Prices posted are soley for WHOA SWEET DEAL BRAH! purposes.

Resident Evil 2 ($20 shipped)
Resident Evil 3 ($20 shipped)
Resident Evil Code Veronica (FREE ha)
Dino Crisis ($8 shipped)
Illbleed ($15 from a local store called Slackers)
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 ($6 shipped)
Metropolis Street Racer ($16 from Slackers)
Sega GT (freebie from a friend)
Evolution 2: Far Off Promise (freebie from a friend)
Jet Grind Radio (freebie from a friend)
NFL 2K1 ($8 from Slackers)
NBA 2K1 (free, came w/o a case with THPS2)
MLB 2K1
Shenmue ($30 from Slackers)
Quake 3 Arena ($10 shipped)
Also have two white controllers, a blue controller, a white VMU, and a dark gray VMU that I had from my original DC.

I know I am leaving a few games out... But, I'll update later.


So far, I have just about every game I would ever want on Dreamcast ha. I would like to get the MDK and Rainbow Six titles, D2, THPS1, and maybe Alone in the Dark (had that one back in the day as well)... But, we'll see. I just know I'm having tons of fun and my Xbox 360 has been sitting and collecting dust ever since I got RE 2 and 3. Cheers- bk

Yea I know how you feel man...I was kid and my cousin had one an I wanted one so bad. But I had the playstation (which i hated). So now Ive been buying everything I can see. Bought all the colors of the controllers. Also, purchased 2 arcade sticks. So now I think i will buy the house of the dead guns. Then I will purchase all the games that I always wanted.

Yeah, the more I think about it... The more games I want to play that I didn't the first time around haha. It's like I'm having a video-game midlife crisis or something. Oh well, most DC stuff is pretty cheap so I can't complain! Especially when the Resident Evil series is on DC. Those are probably the best versions of those games out (I originally got mine for Code Veronica!).

Sure, I can top it.

I got a Dreamcast with a controller, two memory cards (third party), and two controller extenders for four dollars.

I also once got a Dreamcast development kit for free. <-- True.

The list goes on.

That's pretty awesome! I got my second DC package from Slackers... Trade Final Fantasy X for the system, two controllers, s-video hook-ups and a VMU. Not a bad deal on my part I think.

I have so much Dreamcast crap dude, anyone on this forum that knows me could tell you that.

I make videos about all the stuff on my YouTube channel. Take a look. The link should be below.

I mean shit, I own 15 Dreamcasts and a complete game set (legit copies).

Its crazy.

I'm sure you mean a legit complete set of one region, Adam. no one has a complete legit dreamcast set (exept maybe Adol, but I guess he doesn't count :lol: )

No...I mean exactly what I said.

But to explain.

I have a complete US set.

I have every European exclusive not released in North America.

And I have every Japanese game not released in North America and Europe.

I also have several multi-version games. Example, I have every version of Shenmue released in each region.

I also have every pressed independent release, even Dream Para Para.

so you have all games, but not a complete legit set (unless the US set), as the pal & jap sets ar both incomplete; there is a difference (at least from my collectors pov :lol: )

I got dreamparapara as well, I wish they'd make a homebrewgame (preferrably fighting or boxing) that would allow you to use the parapara controller (not sure about feet of fury), it just sits there collecting dust.
