Well, yesterday, I got Virtua Tennis for $9.99. I saw Space Channel 5 for an incredibly low $4.99, and I got PSO ver. 2 for $29.99 (I know it isn't ground breaking, but it is still $10 cheaper than anywhere I have found), and I got Alien Front Online for $19.99 (still $10 cheaper than anywhere as well).

I just got Power Stone 2 for $19.99 brand new. Although Capcom is selling all of their Dreamcast games for $19.99, they are all sold out. I just saw a used copy sell for $45 on ebay. No joke because I sell on there too. I also got Test Drive LeMans for $9.99 (I forgot who saw it at Best Buy but thanks!).

At Best Buy, I just saw Last Blade 2 for only $19.99. That is $10 less than anywhere. Not to mention they had for an unbelievable bargain, King of Fighters 99 Evolution for $9.99. I just got a new Mad Catz gun at EB for $14.99. Now both my cousin and I can play The House of the Dead 2 like we mean it.

O yes, they have a Dreamcast starter pack for $19.99 which includes a controller, memory card (200 blocks but not a Sega VMU), and a rumble pack. That is not bad considering if you bought each one separately, you would probably be paying between $35-$40.

On a side note, with the Dreamcast as affordable as it is right now, it would probably be worth getting one just to give to a friend or family member to make long distance calls using the browser 2.6 which allows calls between Dreamcasts. If you called someone for 30 minutes per week at 10 cents per minute, you would be paying $156. For that kind of cash, you could just have a whole bunch of Dreamcasts paid for in full.

Also, Gamestop has listed Spiderman for $24.99 new and Phantasy Star Online new for $19.99. Although ver. 2 has already come out and sells for $39.99 (got mine for $29.99 at Best Buy), atleast you don't have to pay for the service as the original PSO servers are free.

On another side note, Conflict Zone appears to be out at EB for $19.99 as it is no longer on the "Comming Soon" list. A RTS game for $20, I pray it is good, because SOA should have brought Hundred Swords for the DC over here rather than the PC.

10 games for $20 from 1 of my dads friends.

I went to a music store in a mall near me. (was Camelot, but thats gone now) They had DC games. I couldn't beleive my eyes. The cheapest games they had were $50. They even sold some for $70. talk about ripping the people off. The games should never cost more than the system.

... And on top of that, KBToys online is giving a free controller and VMU with any Dreamcast game purchase. That's an awfully nice deal, now.

I suppose the 2 best deals I have seen are;

Shenmue for ?9.95 (it was 2nd hand & didn't have the outer cardboard box, but it is an epic game)

Shenmue 2 for ?24.99 (Game are selling it new for ?29.99 but in their catalogues there are ?5 off cupons, also if you have a loyalty card, you get an extra ?5 of points so it is essentially ?19.99). I didn't keep this game fo myself, but I will have to buy another copy before the end of January when thir ?5 off offer ends.
