TREAM(A)CAST -
THE PORTABLE DREAMCAST |
|
Yes, it's a portable Dreamcast, kinda. You still need power, since there's no battery (there is however a car adapter). Actually, it's 'just' a modded DC and a PS1 LCD screen put in a case by some pirate company in Hong Kong, but still ... sure is a sweet sight for a Dreamcast fan. The display and the and the plate on the back say 'Treamacast' with an A in the middle. |
|
Everything comes in this neat bag, and they even went through the trouble of making the DC logo square! Inside the bag are : The Treamcast console, a remote control for VCD/MP3 playback, a PSU /w US plug, a car adapter and two pad controllers. |
|
Quite a neat package. The
machine is a modified US Dreamcast (region free). |
|
The controller is more like a Megadrive/Saturn one than a Dreamcast one. |
|
The remote control, IR unit and software for playing VCDs and MP3s. |
The PSU, which clearly tells you that it's a PS1 LCD display in there. |
Sega has officially announced that Treamcast is an
illegal product (and who can blame them). You can still buy them if you
have contacts in Hong Kong, and from a couple of places online. Prices are
around $250. In Hong Kong it (at least used to be) is between HK$1200 -
1500 (about $190).
There's also Treamcast branded VGA-boxes and some
other peripherals. |
