Wow.. it's only been 9 (my fav number!) years that I've had my Dreamcast. I thought I had it longer than that, guess maybe b/c I'm attached to it.

I distinctly remember my Genesis dying, and we had to throw it away. It was a DAMN shame, because I think we threw it away in the box it came in and everything. :lol:

I've never heard of a Dreamcast actually "dying", just having some minor problems that can usually be fixed.

Got my first one on 9.9.99. It met with an ill fate. But the one I have that replaced it is still going. I have 2 newer ones I've bought in the last few years.

Speaking of new Dreamcasts, what ever happen to the DC's at ThinkGeek.com and Amazon.com? I heard they both keep selling out of them :geek:

only 2 years, but i played it round my rich-ass mates house all the time back in '99. I remember the first time playing sonic adventure, i was like "WOW!". For a guy used to PS1 graphics at the time...
