NIB Dreamcasts on Amazon

Post by lwcook »

Apparently Amazon itself is selling brand new DCs for $79.49 (which is a good bit cheaper than thinkgeek had them last time.)

Didn't buy one last time, but for $80 I will probably cave this time and buy (another) one.

I'm not positive...but are all of those dreamcasts the later versions that cannot play burns or indie games?

Dreamcasts are underated bythe general population. Glad they offer them new and used!

From that listing it's really hard to tell what all you get. Is it just the console? Does it come with any accessories or games? Is it new or refurbished new? Is it packaged in original Sega packaging?

I also wonder if some less informed individual will think it's a newly designed system and that Sega is back in the console building gig.

I'm pretty sure these are brand new systems from late 2001. I remember reading about when thinkgeek.com got them that they got a whole bunch that they found in a warehouse somewhere.

I want $80 very badly now. I already have a DC, but a new one would be neat.

They are up to 95$ now and it's not sold by Amazon directly, maybe they sold out?
