PAL Dreamcast w/ Orange Swirl?
« on: February 20, 2015, 04:31:46 pm »
So I'm looking at a Dreamcast on eBay and it says that it's a PAL region console despite having an orange swirl. Could this be true or not? Thanks

I think his pulling your leg.
NTSC=Orange Swirl Exclusive
PAL=Blue Swirl Exclusive

Unless he can prove it with something in the hardware or something. I wouldn't take the chance.

Actually:

Blue = PAL
Red = NTSC-U
Orange = NTSC-J

here is a link to a youtube video showing it could be a real pal system.

unfortunately its not a very good vid as it does not show the systems playing, but the clear plastic triangle of the ebay listing as showed in the video matches up.
