The SEGA Dreamcast is among the most highly valued consoles from the late 90s, primarily because of the extensive library of easily cracked’ games that are now freely available online. Legalities regarding piracy aside, the Dreamcast consoles are in high demand but are no longer manufactured any longer. This makes finding Dreamcast consoles and art, but one that can be taught.
•The first step to finding used Dreamcast consoles is to try looking locally. It is always easier to deal with problems when a vendor is local than someone from a mail order catalog or over the internet. Swap meets and local flea markets are great places to look for used hardware of all kinds, as are stores that sell used Video Games.
•It is also possible to purchase used Dreamcast consoles from mail order catalogs. Many vendors advertise classic consoles in the advertising sections (the rear) of most gaming magazines, and even offer no-haggle pricing. Be wary of high shipping and handling fees, especially if the price of the console is very low; some vendors charge a lot for shipping and handling fees to lower the prices of their core offerings.
•The Internet is also a place where one can find used Dreamcast consoles, with eBay and Craigslist both being popular websites to search. A search engine might get one a lot further than either of these dedicated sites, and many of the top results of any search for used Dreamcast consoles’ are almost sure to be vendors ready and willing to make a deal.
•When shopping for used Dreamcast consoles, one should ask several key questions. Is the unit refurbished? Why is it for sale? How did the current owners come about owning a Dreamcast console? How are returns and repairs handled? These questions and many more are all worth asking, and it might be worth writing down these answers just to be sure that one is covering all of their bases.
•Finally, never forget the two following sayings: one gets what one pays for, and what glitters is not always made of gold. Used Dreamcast consoles that are too cheap are likely to be just that: cheap.

There are lot of rumors for a 2013 release date. I'm sure if there's a community of people desiring it, then Sega will resurrect the Dreamcast.

Either way, it proves to Sega that people are still purchasing older Sega consoles and games, thus displaying the demand for a Dreamcast successor...
