First ThinkGeek was selling them (and it looks like they just got another shipment! $100!). Now Amazon is. Brand new Sega Dreamcast. $120 with free shipping. Sure, it could have benefited from waiting to hit the market a few months (at least) but now it's gone. Yet people are still making Dreamcast games, and there are still servers running for four different games, including Quake III: Arena. Hope you have a land line and a 56k connection! Nothing like a stroll down retro lane to muster up some sympathy for the little company Sony killed.
Also, if you get one, make sure you get copies of Seaman and Jet Grind Radio. Two classics that deserved a better fate than they received. I'm still waiting for the localized PS2 version of Seaman 2... Come on Japan! And don't forget Leonard Nimoy!

I really do wish the Dreamcast had done better. Easily one of the most overlooked consoles to ever hit the market. And what about Shenmue? That game was crazy good, even with all the box moving. Unfortunately, Shenmue II killed that franchise. Although, the stateside's localization was horrible. Maybe it was just that.
