The toothpaste thing does not work. It made a bad copy of Jet Grind Radio even worse. Hehe...it's a risk. Luckily my friend is crazy as it is, so he just attacks them. I swear, he got a PS2 game with a long deep scratch running cross the middle of the disc to play after using that stuff. :o Anyway,...

Check dreamcast.onlineconsoles.com. Off the top of my head:

Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram
F355 Challenge
One of the Tetris Games from JP

There's 2 more, I believe.

Woah...that thing is awesome! It looks really well done, what with the grill on the sides, and the imbedded screen...damn that's sweet!

No can buy though...already in debt.

If you need to open it, you'll need some Torx screwdrivers. I realized that when I went to check out the inards of an Xbox and couldn't get into it with a Phillips.

the part number is different and it is 'limited edition' aka numbered. So limited edition that playasia and liksang have multitudes of them in stock for around $10. :wink: im pretty sure that it actually IS limited edition, but that they both god some horribly large portion of the total amount from...

Alright, here's the response I got to my email to sega-parts.com: Their Reply: it is new and sealed thanks At 04:20 PM 10/25/2004 -0400, you wrote: My Email: This game is for the Sega Dreamcast system unit, part # 51033, ECCO the Dolphin.

You could try a Disc Doctor, thought that's probably not a solution you're looking for. The toothpaste method etc. may sound grotto, but it does work. My friend has fixed many CDs that way. :o BTW, I did get a reply from sega-parts, so it looks like they're still in business...but I need to send the...

Jet Set (Grind) Radio is simply incredible. It still looks amazing, even today. Best graphics, I'd say. Though a case can be easily made for Shenmue...

And how 'bout Rez?

I emailed them just now, will post if I get a response. TBH, this website looks a bit old, like it hasn't been updated in a good while.

It is funny how we save these original boxes, MaximumZero. I have a 4X memory card, a controller, and two VMU packaging visible from where I am currently sitting. :lol: Trust me, I have much more packaging than what you see. I have 3 controller boxes, 3 VMU boxes (one old-style blister, and two box...

The fan in my Dreamcast is not spinning anymore. When I cut on the DC, all I get is a blank/black screen and it doesnt make that "zzwwhhzz" sound anymore and the LED stays on. At first my DC was reseting, so I opened the thing up, blew the dust off (it didnt have much dust in it), and put...

Well, my Dreamcast isn't hooked up right now...after being fried on a botched mod-chip install.

So I've been playing Donkey Konga on my GC in the basement. Must...get...Sharp Aquos 37 inch LCD...now...

Definately go with a VGA box. The official Sega one is the best, but it's hard to find, unless you're from Japan. It wasn't really released in the US, (though I think you could order it through Sega.com for a short period), but it's the best VGA box by far. On Shenmue 1&2 , Rez, Headhunter, Swor...

Pretty nice, though I must admit the extra fan looks a bit grotto, looking kinda strapped on the side like that.

I'd definately add some controller leds; make 'em a different color than the white led you have though.

Damnit...I just realized the problem. I was using solder not meant for electronics.

Flippin' typical of me.

Alright, thanks. I have a 30 Watt Iron, but my hands are a bit jumpy, so was wondering if this might be an alternative.

Yes. This thing looks awesome. (sits in corner, hoping that I will have more fun w/ it than my launch GBA and PS2....)

The funny thing is, I thought it might be the fan, so I checked that on both...and still, nothing. I don't think I burned anything on the board, either, so I can't quite figure it out. I'll be sure to check all the connections etc. and see if there's a point where I really messed up. Thanks for the ...

If you want, I have a copy of it, complete etc. that I'd be willing to sell. It plays fine, etc. LMK if you'd be interested.
