    Dreamcast

    Platform »

    The Dreamcast is the fifth and final console developed by Sega and the first of the sixth-generation of consoles to release. As the first 128-bit system, it was the first to offer truly arcade-quality 3D graphics. It is famous for being the first console to include worldwide online capability, its game library, and its unexpectedly short life span.

    A random question about old tech, I know, but I've been wanting to play some real Capcom Vs. Snk 2 for a while now. This calls for a Dreamcast resurrection!

    Basically, I finally cleared up enough space in my new place to have a shelf or two for old consoles, the DC obviously being one of them. Now, the problem is that the original A/V cable has vanished and never worked right with my newer LCD TV anyway. Clearly, I didn't expect the two technologies to get along fine, being so far apart and all, but I had heard folks talk about using VGA adapters/cables to great success on their newer TVs. Anyone tried this? It sounds like it would be a blessing since I could use the free VGA connection on my TV while also leaving a bundle of cables out of sight (The VGA hook up is on the back of my TV, the A/V and S-Video ones are on the side).

    Best one I've found so far, review wise, has been THIS one, but that was only from a quick peek around amazon. Let me know what you duders think.
