DC price drop?
« on: August 15, 2001, 07:17:28 PM »
It seems like Dreamcast had lower the price from $99 to $79.  Okay, this system is just about nearly two years old and during it life span, the system is getting cheaper.  Even cheaper than psOne, N64.

It amazed me how DC have built in 56k modem cost so cheap while psx and n64 cost more expensive.  I think it have to do with psx and n64 popularity and dc is pretty much dead.  Sad day for SEGA.  I just wanted to point out that DC is like the cheapest console in the next generation era.  Making me wonder when will ps2 will lower it price even though I had one already.
playstation 2 rules.  Nintendo Starcube Dolphin drools.  Hehehahahheheheh...

Unless you just don\'t want one which is a pretty good excuse, really.
For every fanboy there is an equal and opposite fanboy.

To err is human, to belabor the point to no end and deny any semblance of common sense or logic is the demesnes of the fanboy!

I really wanted to play Shenmue and Sonic, so I might consider getting a DC.  I heard that there is going to be another price drop a little later on in the year, or maybe early next year.  So, I\'ll probably wait. :cool:

My current financial status really doesn\'t allow me to start supporting another console.  Maybe once I get off my lazy ass and get a new job, I can get a Dreamcast.  :p  

So for now, it\'s all PS2 for me.  There are so many promising games coming out for the system in the next couple months that I just won\'t have the money for a DC.

You can get a used console with OVERALL better games than the PS2 for the price of a PS2 game. If thats not a deal I don\'t know what is.
