Well, not exactly as it is a bit too late for this, but by friday lunch time I will be the proud owner of:
A Dreamcast
Visual Memory Unit
Shenmue 1
I know you might ask the question why so late on? The only answer to this lies in the 4 games I want!
Shenmue 1
Shenmue 2
Virtua Tennis 1
Virtua Tennis 2
That is all I want for the console, I want to ctach up on the Shenmue series before the new ones appear on Xbox! I will look forward to posting in here knowing that I own the console, it will be nice to be aboard the Dreamcast train even if it is a bit late!

I will be picking it up this friday with what I wanted, the VT's will be purchased later on, but for now I will be happy with Shenmue!

Yeah C_K I do feel that way.
If only SEGA had decided to keep releasing the new SEGA games like Jet Set Radio Future, Panzer Dragoon, Virtua Fighter 4, Gun Valkyrie, Crazy Taxi 3, etc on the Dreamcast, it would be the only console I'd need. Sad.

I agree with Nomad, I own Virtus Tennis 2 and have played Virtua Tennis 1 and VT2 is by far the better game! Faster, more shots, better season mode loads of male and female POPULAR tennis stars, not ones you have never heard of before!
However, VT1 and VT2 have very different styles. VT1 seems to be more 'arcadey' and Virtua Tennis 2 is just an amazing improvement on the original, however, not all the tennis stars in VT1 have made it into VT2!
With the price of DC games nowadays, I would get both! VT1 has more of a magical feel about it! Something I cant explain!
..Shenmue... well what can I say, its a MUST buy for anyone with a Dreamcast, have fun! And the main thing to remember about Shenmue is....... NEVR, EVER RUSH IT!!! It will ruin the whole experience, take your time and enjoy one of the most original games ever created!
Dont just stop there, why dont you buy other DC classics: Soul Calibur, Skies Of Arcadia, DOA2, MSR, Crazy Taxi, Sonic Adventure, Headhunter, PSO, Powerstone, SPace Channel 5, Rez, Quake 3 Arena, Chu Chu Rocket, Headhunter, Outrigger, Jet Set Radio...............
These are jsut SOME of the best DC games! You msut get those, sooooo many classics on DC!! Games are going so cheap nowadays its unbeliveable! I recently bought a Dreamcast and a free game for £50 brand new on EB online! Bargain, I got another DC to backup my original, its starting to play up a bit!
Anyway, have fun like all of us SEGA fans!

There's no real point in buying both Virtua Tennis 1 & 2 as they are very similar.
Virtua Tennis 2 is better because it's faster and slicker than the first one.
Oh, and enjoy Shenmue 1, I think you'll enjoy it.
