It doesn\'t play the GameShark CDX either. So, if by some chance you wanted to play imports you couldnt. Which isn\'t a big deal, cause currently this unit is only in Japan. Though, I imagine they will eventually bring it to the US.

Which reminds me. I have to buy a new DC come Jan30th. They are releasing the "SMASH PACK".

Two DCs..Yum.

 

Living-In-Clip,
I already own a DC, but can I bother you to ask what is included in this "SMASH PACK"? It sounds interesting.

i cant\' believe it, but I actually agree with Altered Beast on something.  I think piracy ruins the whole gaming industry and we the gamers pay for it in the long run.  The more sofware gets pirated the more the cost for that piracy will get passed on to the consumers which is us ( the non piraters ).  Sega developing a new sytem for combating it will only be a temp. fix at best.  Hackers are to good now a days and it will only be a matter of time before they figure it out.  

The problem, I believe lies within the companies. I wouldnt doubt that some of tyhe best hackers work within game companies. Can fix to steal something and voila!

The Smash Pack is the Classics game bundle. Shining Force, Phantasy Star 2 (one of the best RPGs ever!), Streets of Rage 2, Sonic, Virtua Cop 2, etc. Are all gonna be on it! IT is gonna rock!

There is also a Sega compilation. Every SOnic game released, and supposedly some that werent will be on here! That makes three DC\'s for me!
