Generally, if a particular DC game was downgraded in any way when it was pirated, I buy a legit copy without hesitation, unless it's just not worth the asking price. From there on, I still buy legit copies of the other games if I just feel like they are worthy. When I replace a pirated copy, I hand it off to friends to enjoy.
I've got a few of the upper tier rarities like Shenmue 2, Headhunter, Project Justice and such. Fortunately, the Dreamcast has so many fantastic games that were produced in wide supply, that you can be a poor ass like me and still build a great collection.
I nabbed 9 more hand-picked titles off of ebay for $39 (including the shipping).
Soul Reaver
Fur Fighters
Sega Bass Fishing 1
Vigilante 8
Speed Devils
NFL Blitz 2001
Virtual Fighter 3tb
Silver
San Francisco Rush 2049 (Scored for only 0.59 + $1!!!)
The last 4 should come tomorrow. The first five were complete with case and manual. For games which are missing either of those, I just give them new jewel cases, and print out new inserts and spin labels for them with a little google image search.
Hmm, just counted and I have 45 legit games so far, and about 110 pirated ones.
So what are your traits regarding your Dreamcast collections?
