Play more games, enjoy playing emulators with nothing full speed more advanced than the NES. More games. They're VMUs. Not "LCD memory cards".
I'd say play through the Shenmue saga, then become a Shenmue III activist (this will come naturally).
Where can you buy those for $15? Everywhere I've looked wants $30+. Maybe you mean the S-Video cables are $15? Those are cheaper and still make a huge jump in quality over composite.
Dude have you seen his collection? he's not the type to confuse a VGA box with an S-video cable I would be intrigued to know where you can get them for $15 though lol
Better off spending $30 to have one internalized. They're a tight fit but once you have it done you'll not need to worry about video again. The only problem I've had installing them is finding a spot on the back to fit the VGA connector. Might help if I sourced some low profile VGA connectors.
indeed they seem to have gone up a bit, I remember seeing vga cables for dreamcast for 10 to 15 on ebay on a regular basis like 2 years ago. be that as it may, my point is: even if it costs a little more now, its an essential piece of hardware for the dreamcast imo
Sure, but you'll still need to wire up the circuitry and connect it to the Dreamcast. And if you want to enable/disable VGA so you can use it on a non-VGA capable TV you'll need a switch.
These are expensive but high quality: https://www.facebook.com/Cabous.Dreamcast.VGA.cables/info And here's the schematics for this cable: http://imageshack.us/f/91/rgbvgamod5yd.jpg/ One of the simplest design I think, the price of the cable he offers is explained by the quality of the crafting and the shipping. Life-time warranty. Though if you want to make one yourself it's not that hard, you could also make it internal, but beware of RF radiations (don't run cables too close of the power supply).
I just picked dc up myself for $15 (killed my last one and never fixed it lol) been using s-video but vga is a good idea. Kinda been hesitant about modding it just yet.. but I'll probably give in and do a reset mod at least. I use these small buttons I've pulled from dvd player faces and tuck them in that hole.. opposite the extension port side of the console under the psu. Totally stealthy low rider style ;D
House Of The Dead + VGA Adapter + VGA CRT Monitor + Lightgun Yes the light does work with a VGA CRT monitor! This beats the newer Wii version, the lightgun can be set to Autofire and Auto Reload. Machine gun the Zombies. REZ + Puru Pack A Rail shooter that adds to the music as you shoot. The Puru pack really shakes the controller to the beat.
