Zone of the Enders HD Collection's special edition revealed. It was only announced for Japan but I hope it'll be available here too.

Good luck, they're usually like 100 bucks. Although some people might call that cheap.|

I used to have a Dreamcast. I miss it so much. My mom threw it out because she thought it was broken. The damn eject button wouldn't work, but you could still play it!

Ugh.

http://www.screwattack.com/news/rumo...over-announced

Weird rumor. Not sure what to think. It doesn't seem like something Nintendo would do.

Nah, you can get JSR for the Dreamcast for around 10 bucks really. I saw it on eBay go for $20 and it was sealed. But good news that it's coming to Vita, I'm still getting it for the Xbox 360 though.

Two new characters announced for Anarchy Reigns! Sadly it was delayed till later July in the US (and possibly Europe). Still July the 5th for Japan though.

I was talking about the console itself. Yeah, the game's pretty common. I have it on xbox, too.

Oh sorry, I read that wrong. And if you have it on the original Xbox, it's not JSR, it's Jet Set Radio Future, which is actually a lot rarer. I want it.

So like if I saw a Dreamcast for less than 100, should I jump on it? I didnt even know they were rare, I think a local shop has one for around 40.

Cheapest one I've seen was $80. Then again, I haven't really been looking for them, so who knows.

I'm actually looking forward to Pokemon Black and White 2. I've was never interested in buying Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum, but the fact that they've changed the game more makes it more appealing. Considering the Japanese release is apparently a month away, I'm surprised that so little information has been leaked.

Heresy! Crystal was a great game.

I’ve been contemplating getting a cheap used DS and a copy of SoulSilver precisely to reminisce about the good old days I had with Silver/Crystal. Only Pokemon generation I ever played, and my Crystal Pokedex is entirely full (less one Celebi).

I'm not claiming it's not. From what I've heard, the third games tend to be the best, if only because you can catch more legendary pokemon

You can get a Dreamcast around here for 30-40$ at most, games are rare but seemingly worthless since most of them are cheap. Used game stores/pawn shops (local ones, not chains like GAME, Gamestop or EB) will inevitably have a Dreamcast poking around somewhere.

I've encountered Dreamcasts that go from 26 to 47 euros with games. Pretty expensive for a late generation, but more accessible then the ones you've found.

More Legendary Pokemon doesn't make it the best game. Personally I think Gold/Silver/Crystal are the best Pokemon games.

Personally, I've never been a fan of Pokemon. To me it just seems like the same game over and over, like Fifa.

How dare you compare Pokemon to Fifa!

Yes it's the same core gameplay but every game is different. The games have there own stories, settings, their own pokemon.

Fifa however has been the exactly the same game since it's release no real change.

Nah, none of the shit you said really matters. I went from Yellow to Diamond and there was no real change other than better pixels. It's the same damn game, just as FIFA or CoD are for the most part.

No, they aren't. There's a big difference. Every game Nintendo implements new game mechanics Pokemon, storyline etc. Sure, the core gameplay might be hte same, but there are typically enough changed to warrant buying the new game. Plus, Pokemon games don't come out every year, like CoD or FiFa. There's usually several years between games. Except with Black and White 2, but I don't really give a shit about them.

Well if you're waiting years for sequels, aren't you dissappointed with just new storyline and 'subtle changes'?

Saying Red/Blue and Black/White are the same game is exactly like saying Final Fantasy I and Final Fantasy IX are the same games.

It's exactly as true (False) and exactly as clever (Stupid).

I think I played Red/Blue/Yellow, Crystal and Ruby or Sapphire before I became tired of the formula. From my recollection it's a very endearing and replayble game for some types, while most people can't stand the repetitive mildly altered gameplay with each successive release. They're fun(nish?) but whenever I pick one up I will inevitably stop playing a solid 4 hours in. Every. Time.

EDIT: Wrong thread.

Yeah, I got up to Ruby/Sapphire before I stopped. And I don't think it was because I got tired of the formula, I just thought that Diamond's battle system was way too fucking slow. It's like playing in a time warp.

And I'm the same way with Pokemon, I can't really play the games for more than a few hours anymore, even if I want to. Sad.

Also, someone should split this off into a Pokemon thread.
