Treamcast

Treamcast

Treamcast is a third-party developed Dreamcast clone from China. This small system with its fold-down display resembled the revised PlayStation. The Treamcast can read CD-Rs and play MP3s and Video CDs with special software. It also contains pirated Dreamcast firmware, enabling it to play Dreamcast games. Sega accused the company of copyright violations and was able to halt sale through various websites.

Because of its pirated firmware, the Treamcast can play all international games. Also, despite its origins in Hong Kong, the Treamcast houses an American power supply. It will also take original Dreamcast controllers, 3rd party controllers, and the unique controllers which come with it.

The screen is a modified PlayStation screen manufactured onto a miniaturized Dreamcast body.

It is still available through about 5 websites throughout Hong Kong and Canada. It can also be found on the streets of Hong Kong or on eBay auctions.

Their newest edition of the Treamcast sells for $169.99 and will also have the same features as previous versions. It comes in a black casing. It houses a Samsung TFT screen of extremely good quality, but this time will come with the original Dreamcast controller for comfortable playing. There is also a lighter power adapter for travel.
