Ahh, nice to be back from vacasyun....

Fired up some retro game consoles, but got a major surprise....

For Dreamcast, why does sometimes it will randomly reset itself? Too hot? Mine is unmodded Drramcast bought from ebay. The console is played at most 1-2 times in a year....

For Saturn, first time I fired it up, the drive did not function! But after 10 minutes, and several resets and powering on/off, the familiar Saturn intro flying screen came on and it can finally read discs. This one I last played back in 2008! It's a modded Saturn (can play games from Uncle Jack Sparrow....)

So, any ideas on what may cause the problems for my consoles? Lack of play?

Hi Faidzal. For the Saturn what u mean w/ drive not function, is it not spinning or cannot recognize the Saturn game disc ? I have one modded saturn if not played for long time also cannot recognize game disc but audio cd no problem. After some restarts (also sometimes give the console a bit shake), it would recognize the game disc again. Not sure what's causing this also though, but it could be due to the mod (either a bit loose or something else) in my case.

The drive did not spin at all. When powered on, without CR2032 battery attached, it went straight to menu without the intro screen.

I did almost the same thing as you did, even tried to open the case but the screws were too tight!

So then I just tried one more time after 10-15 mins. and voila! it finally powered on with the intro screen!

Anyway, here's my wife playing Dungeons & Dragons Shadow over Mystara....

O.o What the!? Is that a different cover of SF Zero 3? Mine is the boring cover where every characted just stands still in a Playstation Home-like avatar pose. Is that cover from a newer release or something?

This is the 'curse' of the game collector....

In Japan, Capcom re-released some of their early DC titles with Online Play capabilities added. The Online play was called 'Matching Service' and I believed it was compatible with both 56k modem and the broadband adaptor.

Most of the games re-released were only available for purchase from Capcom Japan't Online store, but they all had almost the same covers (Kikaioh, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure etc.) but for Street Fighter Zero 3, they used this variant cover as opposed to the 'paper art' cover.

There were of course the exclusive Matching Service-only games like Super Street Fighter II X and Vampire Chronicle.

The full title is "Street Fighter Zero 3 Saikyo-ryu Dojo For Matching Service".

The game is basically the same as the earlier one, except with the online play feature.

Like I said, the curse of the game collector.

Why buy a game where the online feature is long dead? Because that particular version of the game has a kewl variant cover that destroys the 'normal' version.

Anyway, the SF Zero 3 game is still playable offline....
