We have a search function here, you know. Hey look, this thread even has the same terrible subject line.

You don't have to be a douche-bag about it. Is it so terrible to bring up a topic that is over 5 years old? Just because its old to you does that mean no one else can talk about it now? If he had searched for that topic and posted in it I suppose you would have complained about him bumping such an old topic. Maybe you should spend your time at a forum that doesn't allow new members who ask questions that the old users know the answers to so they dont have to bother reading them and posting about how annoyed they are with them.

Dude, get the sand out of your vag. I don't see how pointing out that there's a fully functional search feature (while posting the results) is being a douchebag. People bump old topics all the time here and it's welcomed if there's a reason. I do like your strawman argument against that though.

I wouldn't call the search fully functional

The only thing that doesn't work right are three-letter inputs, and everyone should know about the google workaround by now for that. I use search all the time and it's fine.

So you dont see this- "Hey look, this thread even has the same terrible subject line." as being condescending (i.e. douche-bag)?

wat?

The Treamcast is an unauthorized portable Dreamcast clone from China. The screen is a modified PlayStation screen manufactured onto a miniaturized Dreamcast body. The Treamcast reads CD-Rs and plays MP3s and Video CDs with special software.

Because of its modified firmware, the Treamcast can play all international games. Sega accused the company of copyright violations and was able to halt sales through various websites.

Despite its origins in Hong Kong, the Treamcast houses an American power supply. It accepts official Dreamcast controllers and third party controllers. Note that several versions of the Treamcast exist.

Hope that helps!

If I remember correctly, they took original Dreamcasts and hacked them into these clones. The System was also sold with an official controller.

Whoops, there it goes off again.

Yes, supposedly original Dreamcast hardware was used, but the firmware and cases were modified. Of course, the screen was added, too.

Exactly what I was thinking. Someone like ryborg looking for an e-fight will probably bitch at me but really, if we start making every initial reply to a new topic a douchey response, then this place is no better than shitholes like GameFAQS and IGN.

It also looks like the question has been answered so good stuff, I was also curious about this. Thanks Rob.

[otoko]

Ok, I will say it wasn't the nicest way to put it, but he did a service by telling one of a useful tool. Treamcasts have been around for some time. I have thought of buying one on occasion. I know there's quite a few threads that have been done on these systems.

I never knew that defending one of the best posters from a glut of newly reg'ed summer vaca kids fresh out of the 7th grade constitutes looking for an e-fight, but surely you know best.

So when I'm here in October, will you admit you were just being argumentative for the hell of it?

Please don't feed the fight.

[spongerob]

Please don't feed the fight.

Then tell it to him too. His next reply is the last one, he can have the last word.

Does anyone here actually have a Treamcast? Is it worth getting?
