Impressive. I hear consoles with the Dreamcast logo on them are rare indeed.

I see your orange transparent and raise you purple transparent.

Honestly, it's one of the reasons Purple is now my favorite color. It owned.

I believe I had Teal, Purple, Orange, and Green transparent controllers (the green one coming with the Special Edition Transparent Green N64 with Donkey Kong 64--the only thing that game was good for).

Try an Orange Transparent N64.

Wasn't there a Mountain Dew special edition console at one time or another?

Anyway, I always paint flames on the side of my consoles so the games will load faster.

See, Nintendo would just dominate the video game market with the Wii with old school gamers if they just came out with the system in transparent colors.
