Dreamcast covers.....

[Exist2Inspire]

Ok guys, finished some more covers:

Crazy Taxi
WWF Royal Rumble
Phantasy Star Online Ver. 1
Flag to Flag C.A.R.T.

You can get them all (hopefully) at http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/Exist2Inspire

Snowcone: If you don't want me posting to my Uploads, please tell me and I'll remove the link.


Couple other things:

1) I will start to make a DVD cover for the Sonic Adventure 2 Demo Disc which came with some copies of Phantasy Star Online Ver. 1
2) Anyone want to make a standardized cover for those Demo Discs that came with all those Dreamcast Magazines (unfortunately, I dont have any of those discs).

I've come up with a much better solution for me in the form of new cases similar to DS game cases, except these have a spindle for CD's instead of frames for carts inside.  I posted picks somewhere in a post by TikTekTak a few days ago.

Picked up Shenmue today for $60.  Two cases in one cardboard sleave.  And you guessed it, when I got home I found one case had the hinge snapped off.  It's a pity as these are attractive cases, but simply delicate.

edit...oops I am losing my mind.  The picks are on page 1 of this thread.

Picked up Shenmue today for $60.

God damn you paid a lot of money for that. I hope it came with the 3 Game Discs, Game Instructions, Passport CD and the Passport Instructinons... damn...

I know i picked up my copy of it for $20 CND (~$17 USD) and it had everything... almost like the game was never played.

Yes, it came with everything.  Supply and demand my friend.  Not at all dissappointed with the price.  Currently $56 on ebay for another copy with 2 days left to go.  Remember, not every society throws away their old consoles every time a new one comes out.  EB games offer tradeins on new consoles, but few here ever take up the offer.  Obviously North America is a different market.  I often hear about the deals you guys get.  Standard dreamcast used games here are US$23.  PS1 are US$10 (not much demand since the advent of the CD burner.  Yes one could place the same argument for the dreamcast, which spelt it's demise, but we all know GD-Roms are better on our drive mechanism and load faster). Anyway, I'm chuffed and thats all that matters.

I got mine here in austria for around 12-15 Euro I don't remember exactly but without the passport!

You're right different markets different prices. DC games are so unwanted here in austria you get a complete one in a second hand store for 1,90-2,90 Euro....

But never forget! It's just money! I'm planning on buying Chrono Trigger right now! THAT will be expensive! I think around 100 dollars will be minimum! But as I said I don't care! The worth of that game will be incomparable to it's price for me!!!!!

I have to agree with Lish, it all depends where you are and sometimes when you are.

I have scored some incredible deals on PS1/DC games simply because the EBGames & Gamestops here are trying to unload them. (they also do not take them in trade anymore)
I have bought several - complete and disc only games for $1 or less.
I also picked up several DC VMU for $.99 ea.
I also got Final Fantasy Tactics & Ogre Battle (complete) for $11.00 ea. They go for a bit more on e-Bay now. That stupid supply/demand thingy.

Dreamcast systems are pretty much non-existent here. I did not know that when TheValeman convinced me I needed one.
A couple of months ago I was in Ohio and I saw lots of them in shops. I picked up my dreamcast system complete w/controller, VMU, rumble pak and all cables for $30.00, and a DC keyboard for $5.00. If I had known how hard it would be for me to get another system for that price, I would have bought 2 or 3.

I've looked on e-Bay, but I don't want another system THAT much.
Back before the professional sellers moved onto e-Bay, I used to get some really good deals there.

[tiktektak]

Yeah I know what you mean! I've not been on ebay for such a long time(about 3 years I think) but even I see this. When I search for interesting auctions I always end up with many many many ebay shops with horrible shipping costs and not sooooo good prices but if you search long and carefully enough and if you're very patient you still can get good stuff at a good price on ebay!
But it gets more and more difficult!

Well, I thought I did get a good deal on a dreamcast system a few weeks ago, but it turns out that the seller decided he did not want to sell it afterall....  so he cancelled the auction.
I spoke w/e-Bay about this, and apparently they do not do anything about this.
