$20 Dollars can go a long way...
I hit my local pawn shop just now with a $20 bill in my pocket. The guy running the shop has a gun holstered at his side as he's smoking a cigarette. I think, What can $20 get me for the Dreamcast here? Maybe just a controller and a VMU. They're kinda greedy here.
I was wrong: they're awesome. Let me tell you why.
I come in and imediatly hit the discount/old games section and in one box I see two dreamcast controllers. $3 a peice. In another I see a $30 Dreamcast sports addition and a sport controller, two regular controllers a black VMU, a white VMU, and a generic rumble pack. I look at the counter and see a VMU.
I ask, how much for one of those? I said pointing to it. "For Dreamcast? $5 dollars." I smile and grab 3 white controllers, a white VMU, and ask for the one behind the counter. "Nineteen dolars." He says. But then: "You know, I'll never sell this crap. You can have it all for $20"
End sale: Black Dreamcast and controller, three white controllers, a madcats controller, two white and one black VMU, and a rumble pack. $20USD.

I was even more confused. I initially read it as "I want a 2nd Dreamcast. Then maybe I could play two player games."Skyone wrote:What do you mean maybe?benol wrote:I want a 2nd dreamcast controller. Then maybe I could play two player games
BTW Skyone? Nice sig.
