I'd never do something like that, but that's some dedication.

Thank you! =)

I've never hacked a Wii, but from what I know the Dreamcast is the easiest hacked console.. There are devs now still making new games for it since it's so easy to work with. Pirating was one of Sega's major issues leading to Dreamcast's demise besides the PS2. You can pretty much get access to any game you want and simply burn it to a cd and boom you got a new Dreamcast game for free. The thing with this PSO online is it's hard to connect online, bcuz of a few reaons. One these BBA are very rare and hard to find since only a few thousand were made, second if you find one it is easily over $100-200 since people jack up the prices. I got mine brand new in the box for $130.00 from a very professional seller.. If you can't get a BBA there are ways where you can get the dial up 56k modem to connect online from a PC-DC server,but that is complicated for me so I went the more simplistic way, plus I've wanted a BBA since I saw it at bestbuy during Dreamcast's discontinuation.. It was $50.00 at the time lol, I asked my dad for it and he said nope LOL.. I ended up getting it last year 12 years later lol

Isn't it a great feeling wanting something as a kid you couldn't get only to get it as an adult?

That's why I'm still buying 8- and 16-bit games to this day! The freedom of adulthood has allowed me to be the kid I never got the chance to be back then. :)

I always wanted to play PSO, but it was expensive even when it was new, let alone here in 2014. Seems like it's the spirtual ancestor to Monster Hunter.

Exactly this console is amazing, I'm getting 480P quality screens with the VGA and broadband ethernet connection of 10/100 Mb per sec.. If you would of told me this came out in 99-01 I would of never believed it.. That's the story of the Sega Dreamcast, it was ahead of its time!

It is the best bro! Pso is a great game unfortunately for us we have to deal with Sega of Japan and their racist tactics. They have something against the rest of the world when the more die hard fans are outside of Japan.. Makes no sense to me, so we can't enjoy PSO 2 until they get their head out of their asses
