With all the discussion on alternative versions of systems I remembered reading about 2 LE Dreamcast models inspired by RE: Code Veronica. I finally found some pictures of them as well as several others:

For LE/variant games, there's a bazillion JP LE bundles, but the only "variant" I've ever come across without counting running changes made to games (ie, Aeris being changed to Aerith for the domestic FFVII GH edition), is for PS1 Spawn: The Eternal. It originally had an embossed chromium cover, but later versions had a standard paper cover.

The silver was an LE? Cool. I just bought mine because our old PS2 died and it looked nice.

For domestic PSTwo? Not as far as I know. The silver LEs I referred to were old-style PS2s.

Oh. Well, whatever. Still a nice color.

But that gold AEUG PS2 looked nice.

The only LE Dreamcast we got in the states was that stupid black SEGA Sports edition.

I want a clear red Claire edition. Or this one:

While we are on the subject of Sega consoles, I want this one, also:

There was a navy blue Resident Evil DS, It came with a leather case that had some sort of badge, I forget if it was STARS or Raccoon City PD. It also had a custom stylus.

And there was a Pikachu N64. It was hideous.

I own BOTH LE seaman dreamcasts somewhere. I was huge into that game and I couldn't resist, Especially with the christmas package that came with a special conversation and message.


I am a worthless piece of crap.
