Re: What Did You Get Your Dreamcast Recently?
I'm really not sure about that. I don't think I've seen official ones. Some of the 3rd party ones can be a bit fragile and prone to breaking so I've always stuck to the Madcatz cables which are very good(also quite reasonably priced).oopsmyseamandied wrote:Some extension cables. Generic, but did Sega ever even make first-party ones?

I'm not sure which generic ones these are. They came in plain discreet wrap, like a dirty magazine. I'm a little concerned about the controller port panel frying, but they've been fine so far.

Re: What Did You Get Your Dreamcast Recently?
I got unnofficial extensions off ebay recently, the first one I got was great but the second must've been a different brand as you have to REALLY force the controller plug into the extension, it clearly wasn't made very well.
The other thing I have that I started using again is my VGA box, its obviously unnoficial and its one of those clear ones that has a red light and can switch between VGA and tv etc, but it was made in such a way that the VGA port is set into the plastic casing, so most normal VGA cable/plugs don't seem to connect properly and you have to REALLY force it in place. I even ended up getting another one that was just a cable type thing/version, sold that recently though as I finally managed to get a good connection on the clear VGA box and must say the picture is perfect, absolutely fantastic

Re: What Did You Get Your Dreamcast Recently?
Native VGA is probably the coolest, and most underexposed/undersold, feature of the DC.
I got a new VMU today. It's just basic white but it's on the blister pack...I might just throw it in the collection and scoop up a different one.

Recently I got my second Dreamcast, boxed and came with 12 games, unopened VMU, boxed controller, 1MB memory unit and rumble pack. Also just received a VGA box which is awesome.

I recently bought an Atlona 510 VGA to HDMI converter and upscaler. Best purchase I made to upscale on my 55" LCD TV. Dreamcast looks awesome in 720p!
