So guess what was in my closet ...
Jim Sterling | 1:28 PM on 09.26.2009 71 comments




Seriously.

That was in the closet in our apartment. I've been here almost a year and I did not know there was a Dreamcast just lying around in a closet. This is both amazing and ludicrous. I think it belonged to my stepson, hence why I can see horrible dirty fingerprints on it, but it has been successfully commandeered and shall be lovingly restored. Now I just need to find an AV cable and some good games for it. Capcom vs. SNK was in the machine, but that's about it.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Is that a microphone? what kind is it? Nice find, funny how you found it just after its 10th birthday too.
dwolfwood's Destructoid Blog
Record of Lodoss War was probably one of the lesser known gems for that machine. It's an rpg like Diablo and has a great story and is totally epic. The first Sonic for that was the shit too, and pretty much why the whole 3D Sonic craze started and ended up as the whore out series we know today. There weren't many great games for that machine imo unfortunately :/
Jonathan Holmes's Destructoid Blog
And Capcom Vs SNK?!?! YOU LUCK FUCKHOLE!

I think I have some extra DC games lying around that I can send you. I found them in the trash. The local Gamestop actually tossed them a few years back.
Guagloves's Destructoid Blog
What? Awesome. Capcom vs SNK is awesome by the way.
blehman's Destructoid Blog

@Kohlstream
It's a Snowball Microphone. I used them for voiceovers in my film classes; they're fantastic.
HeavyD's Destructoid Blog
A she wolf? oh, a Dreamcast.

Even more proof that Jim is King of Videogames.
Jim Sterling's Destructoid Blog
Kohlstream: What King Kong Five said. Niero had it ordered for me so I could produce video content. It's a very nice device indeed.

Probably the best thing you can find in a closet.
Dan CiTi's Destructoid Blog
Lucky, maybe CvS could be your intro to fighting games. You can go to strategy wiki to look up movesets and other crap about the game.
ace of knaves's Destructoid Blog
Whoa, awesome! Let me check my closet, hold on...

Damn, I assumed it was your sexuality, but then I saw the pic. I'm, like, so mature, you guys don't even know. Commas are badass.
taumpytears's Destructoid Blog
The dreamcast finally came out of the closet.

I wonder what else your wife is hiding?
Wry Guy's Destructoid Blog
Jim, what's ridiculous is you get 21 faps just for going, "Oh hey there's shit in my closet!" Your popularity knows no bounds.
Phoenix Gamma's Destructoid Blog
And all this time I thought the only thing in the closet was you! ::rimshot::

Weird game to find in a Dreamcast, though.
greks224's Destructoid Blog
Enjoy it! Maybe you should use Goozex for games.
Sentry's Destructoid Blog
Short of, you know, sweeping social changes and chicken nuggets falling from the sky, this is the best news I've ever heard. Congratulations.
Takeshi's Destructoid Blog
I want you to come out of the closet.
TheToiletDuck's Destructoid Blog
Your closet killed the dreamcast.

Next year you'll probably find a PSPGo in there.
lovemana23's Destructoid Blog
Ridiculous but awesome. Now man up and play Ikaruga!
