A portable Dreamcast?!?

[HaggarCodyGuy123]

Woah! :o Saw this posted on another messageboard. Check this out. http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=2963&likref=alert . I want one.

[RetroYoungen]

WEEEEE!!!! If only Sega or maybe Majestic could take the design and release it here like they did with the Genesis 3 or NOMAD.

:o

All of a sudden I ...really..want one.

Holy Jesus, I want one. So badly. Probably eats batteries, but who cares, it's a portable Dreamcast. And the price they quote 12-1500HKD, is well under 200 bucks.

We don't have any DPers in Hong Kong, do we?

[EnemyZero]

I WANT ONE >.<

It'll set you back $194 (plus shipping from Hong Kong).

Let me know how well it works if you get one.

Anyone have any experience with GoldenShop?

Guess the item is no longer available, I don't see it listed at Goldenshop anymore.

I saw this this morning as well.

Not too long ago I bought an LCD screen and battery for my PSone. I have to say I'm loving this portable console gaming. Yes I have/like the GBA, but I like playing Syphon Filter over lunch *way* more than huddling over my GBA.

A portable *anything* would be sweet (I'm thinking of buying the screen/battery for GC next), but a portable Dreamcast seems *that* much cooler (since it's not going to be available domestically - import only dagnabbit). If/when somebody gets this I'd like a review!

In case it pops up at GoldenShop again, I remember Joe saying that he's had good experiences buying stuff there.

I can't even bring up their website home page. I guess the whole site is down.

You need a GBA SP. :D

It's nice to have screens to make consoles portable but they never will become a true portable.

[dsullo]

I emailed them and they have some in stock. I am sooo tempted , but i am concerned it may be poorly made since it is a knock off:

Dear sir,
Thanks for your email.
We only have few pieces left, the price is US$194

Best regards,
Ronald

What's a 'true' portable? Is that a aestetic or something?

My PSone is "Truly" portable - believe me.

[hezeuschrist]

I believe he means not having a controller port.

Ronald always uses that crappy English, so that's not anything to be concerned about :D

I only consider something portable if it is all in one. Meaning no extra wires. This would mean no power plugs or plug in controllers. It would have to be battery powered with a built in controller. Therefore I do not consider this Dreamcast or Ps1 a true portable , maybe the real term would be "mobile"

[TRM]

So Game Axe is not portable since it can have controller attachments?

I never said it can't have a controller attachments or power cord attachments did I ? x_x
I said it had to have a built in controller and batteries. Does a Game Axe have this ? Then I consider it a Portable.
P.S. I will acoid sarcastic remarks in the future. :D
