Title: Quick question
Post by: Geefer on February 26, 2005, 05:13:38 PM

Hey guys

Sorry, this might have been asked before, but I'm typing this out on my cell phone and can't do all this searching for the answer.

I have a NTSC Dreamcast with a bunch of burned games and a boot disc.

Wondering, when I go to Australia, if I can use the bootdisc to change the region, or do I need to buy something to do so?

What's the cheapest option?

Thanks a lot guys./

Huh?  Do you think that your dreamcast will magically change regions when you move it to a different country?

no actually it sounds more like he want's to change the region because ntsc games don't work in australia (something with the air i think) :D

Why wouldn't it work on the tv?   I didn't think tvs were region specific.

Err they are, refresh rates are at 50hz instead of 60
