So I got to thinking about how God damn amazing this machine was, and wondered if they were available in Korea. Would Yongsan have them? I've seen them listed on Ebay brand new for under $100 which seems reasonable. I'd rather get my grubby hands on one ASAP though.

Know anyone in/going to Japan or will you be going there?

Dreamcasts can be found anywhere there for ~4,000 yen.

I've seen them in Yongsan several times, but never asked how much they cost. It shouldn't be too hard to find one there, but as with a lot of used things in Korea the price may be outrageous. I found one (used) for sale online for 109,000...

I've seen only one dreamcast available at yongsan. They want 80,00 won for it. They have a few older systems like N64s but they are only for display. Hey Englishee I have an extra N64 if you are interested. I don't have pm's yet so email me at [email protected]

The hacked Wii's emulate a lot of the older systems (up to N64) quite well. You might consider getting one.

There is a shop in Busan underneath Nampo-Dong near the subway station that sells all the old consoles and stuff second hand pretty cheap.
