BBA owner count
How many BBA owners are there out there? This would be a good audit to evaluate how many potential BBA user there are out there for future game development. Obviously there will be a huge amount to BBA owners who dont see this poll but good to know how many active (DC-Talk) BBA owners there are.
Dreamcast: Blue Swirl, 60hz, White LED, Removable battery holder, Internal SD card reader, BBA, DreamPi, RGB Scart

Re: BBA owner count
Is this just per-user capability and not a count of how many Broadband Adapters are out there? For example, I have multiple but don't play with them simultaneously.

Re: BBA owner count
I own a BBA but never had the chance to buy a "out-of-the-box" DreamPi. Some virtual machines installed and spare modem connector laying around, plus some old Pi at work... but never went online with my 56K modem.

Re: BBA owner count
BBA seems to be the future of indie/homebrew stuff with NuQuake, Counterstrike and Half-life already being possible to be tested with it and even Driving Strikers is honestly not playable on dial up. Just had 10 people in one server for NuQuake just yesterday and everyone on dial up agreed that it was not playable.

I'm in the "not missing out" camp. HL1's CS sure but I can't be assed to swap and swap and swap DreamPi for ethernet viceversa

Re: BBA owner count
I have a BBA and I always have it connected unless if I'm testing out how a game is playing online with modem
