Keyboard & Mouse...

Post by sega2k »

I noticed that Dreamcast had an official keyboard and mouse. What games did these support? I've heard people say that they are best for the shooters. What shooters do they support? Because I'm considering Quake and the keyboard and mouse and hopefully get online with you guys. Just wondering. Thanks

It also works on Half-Life, and all of its mods.

Really, if you use a keyboard and mouse in Quake III Arena, your at a very large advantage, you can now do all the movement tricks that the Quake series has been known for.(Bunny hoping etc).

Too bad my mouse is broken, it was brand new and my friend got it for me, but for some reason it will not work in downward movement.

I can turn left right and up perfectly though, anybody know why I am having these problems?

The only problem I cant find a BBA on ebay. Well I found one for 199.99, but it was the NTSJ. So they said it wont work on the US dreamcast. So until then, no Quake 3 for me.

It's still NTSC, why wouldn't it work on an NTSC-U system? By the way, all accesories from each region are compatible with all systems. I think 1 exception might be with the offical Light guns on American systems becuase of the School shootings.

Are you sure that it works on all console regions. B/c the seller on ebay said it only worked with the japanese dreamcast console. I'm not sure if it does.
