    Default Rarity/Value on Dreamcast Web Browser 2.62?

    Hey,

    I just picked up a Dreamcast Web Browser 2.62 disc. Containing: Web Browser 2.62, Dreamcall, PC Dialer, SegaNet Registration, Sega Swirl, a Phantasy Star Online movie, as well as the following game demos: Starlancer, Speed Devils Online, Typing of the Dead and 4X4 EVO.

    Any Ideas on a value or rarity?

    Thanks.

    The only browser that's worth anything is 3.0. Any of the other browsers are really only worth a few bucks if they are complete.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    I always assumed they were all pretty worthless. What makes 3.0 so special?

    3.0 was for the broadband adapter.

    So if the 3.0 Web Browser and Broadband adapter are worth so much, are they still useable with today's interwebtubebutts?

    I guess it's also somewhat subjective as I got this disc when I picked up a Dreamcast keyboard and one of the demos on the disc is "The Typing of the Dead"

    Do any other Browsers have Game Demos? Is this Version Less Common?

    I'd assume that it's still semi usable. Just like Wii Browser and DS browsers are still semi useable. Probably not a lot of places you can still go, but given a connection and some net know-how you should be able to get it online.

    Subjective? No, most all of these are worth about 5 bucks a pop if they have their original cases. Nothing subjective at all about it. It's not less common than any of the others. These were given away with systems and accessories for most of the life of the system (wooo 18 months). There are other versions with demos on them. 2.5 has Swirl and some other stuff as well.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.
