Hey guys! Just thought I'd share my excitement...
I had a stomach bug all day today and was in need of a project to keep me occupied while stuck in the house...
So I just took my old faithful Japanese Sega Dreamcast ( bought before xmas 1998 ) and finally made it a multi-region system thanks to my new Weller soldering iron! Something I've been wanting to do for years as I've had 2 systems setup whenever I've wanted to play through my fave Dreamcast games...
As the final pics show, shes working perfectly. Running PAL games and ofcourse its native NTSC-J (and should run NTSC-U too) without the need for a boot disk.
Here's Pr0ns ...
*** I should add to the moderators that this in no way affects the dreamcasts ability to play CD-R games, as they can all can play those without this modification already and GDROM discs as you will know are not easy to rip.
If however this is against any rules i'm not aware of I will be happy to take it down. Please let me know. ***
