Anyone else pre-order this?

Are there any local flea markets or boot sale spots worth checking out for video games? Any local video game shops that deal in 8/16/32 bit systems in the area of interest? I'm not expecting to run across a Super Potato type place, but always open to checking out local spots to see what's there.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions! ]]> Classic Gaming bones11 http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=148062 <![CDATA[The "Real" Worst Console Ever]]> http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=148059&goto=newpost Thu, 02 Sep 2010 10:26:07 GMT You'll never guess. It's not the 32X, Sega CD, or even Virtual Boy. Game.com is pretty close.

I noticed a few days ago that my US launch Dreamcast console has turned a light but noticeable shade/tint of yellow for the top half, but the bottom half seems unaffected. My DC has never been in direct or indirect sunlight, I have never smoked and I hardly ever cook, so I don't quite understand why it has changed color. The only thing I can think of is that I don't dust my consoles regularly and keep them clean like I used to. Anyone else has experienced this color change, and what, if anything, can be done to restore the DC back to its original white-gray color? ]]> Classic Gaming segagamer http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=148053 The Wily Wars http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=148049&goto=newpost Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:00:28 GMT Hey, I know this was only available to thru the SEGA Channel in the US years ago but I I know it was released on on cartridge in UK and Japan...am I...

I was just wondering which iterations have it and which don't. Do any of the platinum ones have it? Or is it just indigo and black versions?
