    As you said Caut, if I were rich, I'd so buy it.

    I mean, right now, I'm tempted to bid on it, but wait, I don't even have that much money right now.

    Damn, I'd love that thing. It's literally the ultimate Dreamcast.

    Other Dreamcasts can try to compete with it's kickass-ery, but they're just gonna fail, miserably.

    Crumbs! That's pretty mental ..

    I see at least one DP-er in the bidding .. although it looks like he may be out of the running now. We shall see!

    And the top two bidders now are both from the States - I bet he's glad he changed to worldwide shipping now!

    I recall there being a contest a few years back for the last Dreamcast console produced with all the developers names signed on it. THAT is the true rarest dreamcast system.

    It's cool as fuck, but if there's 200 made (as the auction says) then there's at least a couple of variations that are rarer.

    Possibly a variation where Yuji Naka misspells his name or something

    Was only 50 of those DC's signed from what I remember the other 150 were unsigned. Should bring in around £1000 I think.
    I'd like that DC

    i think it would be cool to own but it looks somewhat cheap (maybe just the picture). the design is just kinda boring.

    But if its rare, no wonder it got a high price.

    I'm drooling for this. But even if I had that kinda money to spend, its going to rocket in price in the coming days. It is going to collect an outrageous fee, and to be honest, does the seller deserve such money? He won it. This doesn't feel right. You just don't sell this kind of thing. A gift, from Sega. You don't sell it!

    If you look at the Q & A, he didn't win it. He bought it from the dad of some 14 year old who won it. So no, the seller doesn't 'deserve' the money - I expect he probably paid the dad a measly £100 at most for that thing.

    The kid that won it deserves the money, IMHO - it was his prize!
