    Because the "closed lid" button is too short and to get it to play games you need to keep your hand pressed down on the lid. POS Treamcast. and why the hell does it play american games only!?!?

    Porta-play!

    It's a Honk Kong Dreamcast adaptation that has it's own built-on TFT screen...
    Imagine the PSOne with it's built-on TFT screen... now imagine the same thing on a Dreamcast.
    There you have it: Treamcast!

    Belive it or not but the name Treamcast is the company's name. They were around long before the Treamcast Dreamcast system with TFT screen was made. They also made the Dreamcast version of Para Para Paradise which is called Dream Para Para. They also madfe Dreamcast controllers, VGA boxes, VMUs and cables that all had the name Teamcast written on them. THe boxes looked identical to Sega's white Japanese Dreamcast boxes apart from the swirl logo being made to look square and the name change of Treamcast.

    There were loads of other cool things that they made which I can't find pictures of now. Probably their best item apart from the Treamcast console is Dream Para Para which works very well belive it or not.
