I'm thinking of getting another old console, should I get a snes or a dreamcast, I still have a lot of dreamcast games but my first one died and my brother bought a second hand one a few months ago and that was dead aswell, they seem to be plagued by faulty cooling, but I loved some of teh games.

I loved that game when I was a kid! It's the first game I can remember completing. Streets of Rage 2 holds up a little better, though.

Tough question, both great consoles but the SNES is so widely emulated (legally and otherwise) that I'd say get a Dreamcast!

The two blend together for me because when I had them originally they were both on teh same cartridge.

Something I have come to realise, HDTVs do not like playing old consoles that use the RF in, the picture is sometimes pretty bad.

I have a snes emulator but its just not the same on a computer with a computer controller or keyboard. As for the dreamcast I want to play the games but I have a bad feeling from what I read that it would be rare to find a dreamcast that works well, might try and get a decent dreamcast emulator for the computer and play teh games that way and get a snes. But I have disk emulators... decisions decisions...

Thinkgeek, weirdly, are selling them new and boxed and you can emulate SNES games on the Dreamcast .
