Sega Dreamcast to cost $50?

For $50, I can buy a game, I didn\'t imagine for $50, I can get a DC.  It seems like DC(somewhat a next gen console) is the cheapest console.  I still remember the launch price, $199, then before ps2 comes out, $149, after a while, $99, then $79, and now, finally $50.  Even PsOne, N64 still cost $99 (twice the price tag) and they are 10x less powerful than DC.  Well, it all comes down to marketing and DC is pretty much dead.  Why not sells the remaining DC for some money.  That\'s what Sega might be thinking.
DC is getting cheaper.  I think sony should do the same too.  In that way, they can draw more buyers waiting for a price drop. $249.99 is a good price tag, not to mention gives network adapter($40-retail price) for free is a good move for them.

Wow, that\'s pretty cheap..

I\'ll see if I can get it.. Just for Shenmue and those Virtua Tennis games.

I got my DC from funco land for 46$ (refurbished)

*Pours out a 40 ounce*

looks like I might finally get one then. I never liked DC much..only a few games that grabbed me, but not enough to get the console. My biggest pet-peeve is that funky controller, I really dislike those.

people who don\'t buy one on this board will fall to me big boot! There is no reason not to buy one (as if there was ever!) and those who don\'t, i will be paying a visit to, to provide a free asskicking.

Just hold back on that silly Madden game, or some other rehash you were planning to buy and experience the unknown...Dreamcast. Best. System. Ever.

YOU ARE A TWO-FACED LIAR!!!

I thought you said Saturn was the best.

:fro: :fro: :fro:

And, yes, DC IS the best system, ever.

I\'d buy one for $50 if I didn\'t already own 2.

I think once I finally get my Shenmue II and Headhunter copies, Dreamcast will be the Best. System. Ever.

I have heard excellent things about both, and I already have the japanese ver. of Shenmue II, but it isn\'t much use to me

Saturn for right now still rocks the house over any other system.

well, its a bit too late now, since all the games I wanted, skies of Arcadia, grandia, headhunter, F355 and soul caliber are going to ps2

Its a good system, overrated by its hardcore fanbase but underrarted by the casuals. I will pick one up along the line, after I get my 2nd ps2

Hey moneybags, why don\'t you provide a free Dreamcast instead?

I gave my PlayStation to my girlfriend... and I only have one N64 game.

So me and my Dreamcast are becoming VERY well acquainted, until my PS2 falls into my hands:)

btw, Grandia 2 is so much more fun than Skies of Arcadia.

"btw, Grandia 2 is so much more fun than Skies of Arcadia."

That\'s what you think, sweet ass.

shenmue is a pretty good game but i never got to finish it cause my mom busted my dc cause she was mad at me, and lets not forget 4x4 evolution, that game is the shiznit.


p.s. i busted my moms favorite lamp the same day, i also took the motor out of the washing machine.
