Product Description:
With this full-featured Sega Dreamcast VGA Box, you will be able to hook up your Dreamcast up to any VGA monitor or a TV with VGA support in addition to virtually any TV. This is ideal for HDTVs as you can hook it up via any of the following ways (from highest to lowest quality) * VGA Video Cable * S-Video Cable * Composite (RCA) Video Cable Once you have your Dreamcast attached to a VGA display, you will be able to experience the Dreamcast at its most beautiful form. If you have played many PC games, you know how much crisper and cleaner the picture quality is. Now imagine high-resolution games like Soul Calibur and Guilty Gear X being displayed on a VGA monitor. It is truly a sight to behold. Basically, the VGA Box has all the features of the regular Dreamcast VGA Cable, but with much more flexibility with the addition of S-Video and Composite (RCA) video output. If you have a game that does not support VGA mode (see the VGA compatibility list), you can with the box to "TV Mode" and switch your TV to the S-Video or Composite input for maximum compatibility.

- Outstanding item that allows the DC to perform an even more outstanding ability!
The fact that the Dreamcast, natively with first party and nearly all third party support, supports true 480P VGA out of the box is absolutely superb. The Dreamcast is easily one of the best highly-integrated computers designed for efficient graphics rendering ever made, along with some of the best software to go along with it. For it to output 480P over native VGA is superlative, and was way ahead of its time, but that's the way Sega is, or at least was, with their hardware; top-notch quality, excellent fit and finish, innovative and beneficial features, and revolutionary, or at least extremely passionately designed features and characteristics. This VGA is an absolute must buy if you're a Dreamcast owner, and have a compatible display that has a 480P VGA - or even component, simply buy a VGA to Component transcoder - input and really appreciate the gorgeous crispness and great visuals this machine is capable of.

- Works as Advertised, with Very Crisp Picture
Works with most every Dreamcast game, boosting the picture from 480i over composite to 480p over VGA. The difference is stunning. Although it seems to introduce a bit more jaggies due to the sharpness of the image, text is much more readable and the picture overall is much less blurry and washed out. Games look on par with PS2 or Xbox over component, albeit with a bit less polish. A great way to get some more life out of your Dreamcast if you still have one.

- Great Purchase
After 3 weeks of using this I have to say that I am amazed with the graphics of the Dreamcast even more. The composite connections looked terrible/washed out & grainy on my new 1080p HDTV. I connected this & was blown away that the Dreamcast straight out of the box supports 480p. The difference is night & day with it & I wish I had bought this much sooner. I have over 30 Dreamcast titles & have not had a problem with 480p not being supported. The Dreamcast was so far ahead of it's time & is the standard of what consoles are today. My Soldier of Fortune game looks phenomenal on an HD connection. If you're a Dreamcast fan you NEED to get one of these to play either on your HDTV or pc monitor. Well worth the money!!!

- higher resolution is better
More than happy with the Dreamcast VGA/S-Video box. The images look alot better through the VGA input on my TV, and if the game doesn't support, I have the S-video to fall back on. More than happy with this product and the good people who shipped it!
