Can I Save My Mom’s Dreamcast After All These Years?

Описание: Sponsored by PCBWay – check out their services at https://www.pcbway.com/

Years ago my mom ‪@8bitmamma‬ bought this Japanese Dreamcast, the one with the orange box and the face of Sega’s president on it and never tested or even opened it!
There were a few issues here and there, but in the end I was really happy with how it turned out!
