Title: dreamcast/ arcade
Post by: dreamcastninja on October 30, 2004, 01:12:18 am: I know I'm new here, but reading this site has helped me a lot in building my arcade. I've got pics up here too. =)

anyway, I've got a dreamcast system for sale with a few official games (and some "cdr" disks if you want to talk to me about those in messenger or something, homebrew, uhhh ect...)

I'm not exactly sure what I want for it, but it'd be great to throw in a cab, I've got my modded dc and I don't need two of them.

my aol messenger is dreamcastninj4
my e-mail is dreamcastninja@yahoo.com

if anyone wants to know more/is interested let me know

Thanks for the wealth of info on the arcade stuff. :)

Since you're new you'll want to know that this thread will probably be pulled since you're trying to sell bootlegs.

Post by: Vicious on October 30, 2004, 12:30:17 pm: Actually, he said "homebrew, uhhh ect". While I'm sure he meant etc, it's not to hard to guess what the "uhhh" is about. Why else would he want to talk about it in messenger and not here?

Being new, he should be given the benefit of the doubt that he might not know the rules. I posted as just kind of a heads-up so he could edit that line.

Just twist your words a bit. I remember having to word my auctions carefully when I would sell modded video game systems. ;)

as for modded dreamcast...he painted or changed the shell, that can mean modded
( i not for or against this guy, and i don't even know him...i'm just saying)

and whom ever did mod a dreamcast is silly cause you don't need to mod to play a cd-r game

Post by: Vicious on October 30, 2004, 03:22:30 pm: I use my modded DC for imports. I play Fire Pro G, SF III, Capcom vs SNK, etc. and a modded system is the only way (outside of having an import DC) to play original import games.

I know what you mean about not needing a mod for backups, though. My uncle has quite a few (and emulator discs) and his is still a plain-vanilla Dreamcast.

Title: Re:dreamcast/ arcade
Post by: dreamcastninja on October 30, 2004, 10:25:11 pm: Awesome about that mma.

btw- the dreamcast for sale isn't the painted one (i modded them both though) i did it so i can play fire pro wrestling D (g isn't on dc)

it's region free

i have homebrew games, and a few "unreleased ones" like propeller arena and stuff to clarify... other unmentionables too... some official games and stuff as well, I have a ton of dc stuff since I used to collect...

Post by: dreamcastninja on October 30, 2004, 10:28:47 pm: oh yea, it's a dynamo cab... dunno what game it was originally...

the x-arcade just fit and I was too lazy (unskilled) to do the measuring and woodwork for my own panel so i just went with that... i think it looks pretty nice for being lazily put together

Yeah, I get the three mixed up. Kinda retarded considering it's lettered by the system, huh? But by far my favorite is still 6Men Scramble on Saturn. I never tire of that one. ;)

Post by: mcdo15 on October 31, 2004, 03:22:24 am: yes..owning a import dc is great (like me)
worth every penny buying it many months before anyone in the states had it
Title: Re:dreamcast/ arcade
Post by: dreamcastninja on October 31, 2004, 08:41:19 am: i never played six man scramble, screenshots?

btw- someone is interested in the dc but hasn't gotten back to me yet, i said i'd give him time, so if anyone is interested in what I have and everything i'm still entertaining offers for the time being.
