I've got a dreamcast with gdemu but just found this model cheap in working order with cables and controllers for 25 euro. Still needs to be shipped so i can't look at the motherboard and there isn't a single indication of a sticker in the back with the 1 or 2 in it. Does anybody maybe know ? I know it's a type 2 of the 4 types in japan. build 1999 - 2000 and has the daughter gd rom board present. Bios being 1.01d - 0x89F2B1A1. If it's a va1 want to use it for a usb gd-rom
Unfortunately, the Japanese and Asian market Dreamcasts didn't have that revision marking on that the US and European ones did. I think it's probably a VA1, though - I just checked the units I have here, and the sticker part number on the VA0 is 670-13748B (Made by Sanwa Denki) - the VA1 sticker is a 670-14071C (Made by ASAHI Electron) - which is very close to the unit you are talking about.
Super thanks for replying and looking it up ! I'm a lot more hopeful now anyway i'll post what model it is after receiving it for people who happen to stumble upon this type of dreamcast on ebay or whatsoever.
