I bought a DC - Page 4

JuniorCRB · October 10th, 2003

homebrews and emu's don't hurt dc to bad because they generally only load data once into ram and then acces data from there

drgoonkiller01 · October 21st, 2003

why the h*ll was MY thread closed for the little "backing up" i talked about. and this one still open? this isnt right

**hushypushy** · October 21st, 2003

what are you talking about dude? and why are you coming back and just asking about it?

Takmadeus · October 21st, 2003

Hey.... going back on topic, I got a DC (heavily modded so it doesn't heat so much

) from a freind.... which lended it to me for free... and might consider leaving it to me for a long time if I get to download MP3 players and stuff found in DCemulation.com... isn't that great?... the bad thing is that he forgot the A/V cable, and won't be able to get it back until wednesday

**hushypushy** · October 21st, 2003

thats cool dude. if i got a DC i would get San francisco Rush 2049 (my favorite DC game)

Takmadeus · October 21st, 2003

**hushypushy** · October 21st, 2003

yea I always get hurt my thumb after playing fighting games with a dc controllor

Takmadeus · October 21st, 2003

heh.... that Dpad sure is a finger crusher.. just like old N64 controller

**Razor Blade** · October 21st, 2003

God, If I play any game I always get a blister.

Kaiser Sigma · October 21st, 2003

The Dpad wasn't that bad... the thing that always left my thumb hurting was the analog stick... but overall it was a nice controller...

Seriously

**hushypushy** · October 21st, 2003

yeah it was. i think the juicy shoulder buttons paved the way for Xbox. the controller was well suited for Rush2049 (which my friends and i spent many many hours on)

October 21st, 2003

am I the only one who thought the DC controller's d-pad was pretty good?
....
the analog controller however, is just a little too small to be really analog; I have some cheap PC pads that suffer from the same issue (they work well for emus though); tip: if you want a pc pad with GOOD analog controllers (for PC racers and the like), get a thrustmaster dual power pad.

As for the pressure sensitive shoulder buttons on the dc pad....well, not really good and not really bad. they work.

**Kane** · October 21st, 2003

The Dreamcast's pad was about as good as having nine inch nails shoved up my japeye.

To say the D-pad was uncomfortable is like saying that having your skin removed with a butter knife dipped in vinegar is a mild discomfort.

Saying the Analog stick was in the wrong place is like saying that GWB isn't that great at his job.

The DC pad was some kind of cruel joke inflicted by some cokeheads at Sega. That's the only explaination I can come up with anyway.

October 21st, 2003

disagreed;
that the analog stick leaves something to be desired, yup...but the d-pad I can handle just fine; allthough the second controller I bought had a better one than the one that came with the console....so who knows...

well, im backwards of that. i think the analog stick was pretty good (not as good as xbox or ps2, mind you) but i hated the Dpad

As I've already stated long ago, making aside the analog stick I thought that the DC pad was quite good... (and as I've already stated long ago, that thought could have been affected by the fact that I'm fond on Sega

)

Herrrrmmm... I didn't find uncomfortable the Dpad... and I played for days almost non-stop

**hushypushy** · October 21st, 2003

after a while you get used to the dpad....the blisters protect you

JuniorCRB · October 21st, 2003
