How messed up is this...

How messed up is this...

Post by SaSSO »

:evil: :x I hate people that try to gain off of others hard work. It just pisses me off. Look at this. This is an email I recieved from someone who probably saw me around the Dreamcast auctions on ebay.

Greetings,
If interested, I have the following for the Dreamcast Game System:
These games work on any Dreamcast (all you need is a Dreamcast - no modchips or anything). These can't be bought in any stores in the United States, but are sweet games for the Dreamcast. They are also complete games - NOT demos or shareware.

? The Dream Arcade: 430 Original Arcade Games (Like Donkey Kong, Pacman, Jr. Pacman, Mrs. Pacman, Galaga, Jungle Hunt, Qbert, etc. 430!!! Gorgeous menus. Perfect speed/sound/ emulation; these are identical to the arcade versions - right down to squeezing the Dreamcast trigger to input quarters/credits! There are even some added optional enhancements - like in Pacman type games, you can hold your A button and go into turbo and go faster than the ghosts, etc. ) One Disc-- $25
? Nintendo Entertainment System for Dreamcast: Over 2000 original NES games for the Dreamcast on 1 disc. Perfect speed/sound/emulation. Gorgeous. VMU saves. More than 100 modified games included that weren't put out w/ the original NES! (Including a Sonic Super Mario 1 where it's Sonic and rings instead of coins, a Super Mario World SNES hack, a Pink Floyd The Wall Donkey Kong, a Star Trek SS Enterprise Galaga, etc.) -- $25
? Sega Genesis Super Smashpack - Over 1000 Sega Genesis games for the Dreamcast (Perfect speed/sound/emulation) VMU saves -- on 2 discs. -- $25
? Dream SMS - Over 400 Sega Master System and GameGear games for the Dreamcast (Perfect speed/emulation) on 2 discs - $25

These are MUST additions to your Dreamcast/video game collection. All have Full Color disc labels.

Package deal: Get any 2 for $45, any 3 for $65, or All 4 for $75. No extra for postage is required. Also, if interested, add $5 to any purchase for a VCD Player for the Dreamcast (or this can be bought separately for $10 no extra postage). This will allow you to play VCD movies on your Dreamcast (For those of you who own VCD movies or can create VCD movies w/ your camcorder). It works perfect. Just put the disc in. A screen will come and ask you to hit Open and insert the VCD. Enjoy the VCD movie!!

:arrow: Well, if you want the email address of this person to put your two cents in, then email me and I will GLADLY give it to you. But its sad how the developers of all of these emulators make no money and some person will make money off od their hard work.

That is all...

I dont think we should be that drastic, besides the cops probably would do nothing. But I vow never to buy anything from that seller on Ebay. Thats a good start, right... :oops:

Also, that backup terms. Like he actually thinks that someone has 2000 NES games. Someone should send out a warning to eBay about this and have his acount stopped.

That makes me sick!
(for 2 reasons)

Hard working coders put loads of time and effort into coding awesome emulators for anyone to use, and don't charge any fees! Some wanker comes along and rips them off buy trying to make some money on Ebay from someone else's hard work

Also, they are selling ROMs.. gah, I won't even get started on this...


Sorry about that rant, but people selling emus and roms really pisses me off.
