No, I believe you need an adapter for that.
I would have thought all the KB's are all sold out everywhere by now. It was hellishly difficult to get one when PSO was released. |

I dunno, all the dreamcasts I've gotten (we had to give back 1 or 2) keep having something wrong with them. Our latest one keeps resetting in the middle of games, because the lid on it is loose. We've had to place a dvd case on top of it to weigh the lid down... and I also don't use the internet access on the Dc, seems like too much of a pain, and I probably wouldn't have much fun playing those games on the net. |

Yeah I own a dreamcast, I was never really motivated to go online with it. Allthough I came close with the Shenmue passport thing, apparently you go online with a character from shenmue as your "avatar" and you trade little toys and stuff. It'd be fun, at least untill the novelty of it all wore off.
Anyone try the Shenmue passport disk out online? |

Meh, no real reason to get a keyboard for it. That was only the second time I'd used the net function on it. I'm keeping it in mind as Dreamcast development has me intrigued at the moment. Sussing out VMU games, which'll be a nice addition to the portfolio @:-)
PSO has me interested, but with my current connection... *cringe* |
