Can't wait to jump back in!

Hello everyone, my name's Asaru and its great to be here.

I recently went with my father to our old storage unit to start the process of cleaning it out; so we can close it out, when I stumbled on my old Dreamcast in an unsorted pile of my stuff! Wow the nostalgia wave was real haha. Sadly it wasn't in the best condition, I take full responsibility for that, but it was here, and a few games were still along with it (Marvel Vs Capcom 2, Crazy Taxi, Sega Bass Fishing and Sonic Adventure)! Needless to say that night I started doing research on how I could Frankenstein it back to life and started ordering things. I swapped out the PSU with a DreamPSU, I removed the GD-ROM and replaced it with a super neat GDEMU with extended SD-Card Reader and I did the Noctua Fan swap as well.

Took it for a test drive last night and everything seems to be working just fine. Now I needed to find a place where people still talked about the Dreamcast and everything we can do with it! I was reading a lot of buzz about this place, so here I am making an introduction. I'm excited to get back into the scene and relive the good old days again! The one things I'm not excited about is tracking down a set of Virtual On controllers now lol.

Welcome! Good luck finding those controllers, another great upgrade is the VM2 instead of the VMU, or the VMU Pro set to release this fall.
