Anyone think the Dreamcast is over-rated now?

Yes i think its a very overrated console, most of its games were ported to other consoles now with better performance. There are view exclusive games left who werent successfull enough like shenmu1 or D2, and a couple of definitive console versions from ps1 like dino crisis who speak for owning this console.

I also dislike how the dreamcast requires a very very expensive vga box to get the best videoquality from your dreamcast on a PC monitor instead just using component cables who could be used on any hdtv. This device costs you 100€.

I would agree with you here but component cables for the Gamecube are around $250US!!! To make matters worse Ninendo(in their infinite wisdom) stripped out the component support in the actual disks for the GCN in PAL territories but left in the component port in the back!! It was cheaper by far for me to simply buy a Wii that plays GCN games, a Wii component cable(cost me $35US)and simply import the NTSC versions of the GCN games to enjoy the improved picture quality.
