Hi guys, assemblergames seems to be a great forum! Please take a look at the pictures: www.student.lu.se/~fek02ali/katana.jpg www.student.lu.se/~fek02ali/gddisc.jpg I could perhaps get hold of those, the discs are still wrapped in plastic (50) and the burner are supposed to work too. Is it rare, much worth you think? Thanks! /Mrlowalowa
Definitely would be RARE. I don't know how much it'd be worth to most people but it's so rare it's surely worth alot. I personally would rather have a Sega Saturn CD-R to burn the System Disk on. The burner/reader drive is definitely worth something nice. I wouldn't have a clue as to how much though. Definitely get ahold of it. I would if I were you.
Thanks for answering! The "problem" is it´s not from any yardsale, it is in fact kind of pricey. Yeah I would like to buy but the question if I would lose a lot of money if I by some reason need to sell it. /Mrlowalowa
I have seen the burner sell for $100 - $450. The GD-r discs I would say $150 for the 50 (although a year or 2 ago these sealed spindles were selling for stupid amounts of money). This is just my opinion of their value, I'm sure others will disagree with me!
I'd say about $400 for the both. The GD-writer is worth much more if sold with a devkit, where they have in the past reached 600-800. I seem to remember an eBay auction where it nearly hit 1000 maybe 6 months ago, again that was also with the devkit.
Sometimes an internal SCSI harddisk is included with the Dev kit. The whole unit is a Dreamcast which looks like a PC case and is able to read GD-ROMs of all regions. It cannot read some games (I forgot which) and cannot read Dreamcast games backed-up on CD-R/RWs. The latest revision of the dev kit (to my knowledge) is the Set 5.24. The unit is used for development of Sega Dreamcast games, but it is illegal to create your own games without a license from Sega, still doesn't stop those from collecting...
