Manufacturer description
This is the Sega Dreamcast - NTSC-J (Asia Version) - HKT-3010. It was released in 1998 especially for the Asian markets like Taiwan, Hong Kong, and South Korea. Only Japanese Dreamcast games works on this console. Note: the disc drive is finicky, but the laser still works fine. The disc drive needs minor repairs or replacement. I don’t have any Japanese Dreamcast games as American Dreamcast games doesn’t work on this console after testing. Audio CDs work fine on this Dreamcast. This Dreamcast is in great condition and works fine, and needs some adjustments to the disc drive. All sales are…
