Dreamcast power cords!

[VanillaGorilla]

So I'm all jazzed up to play some Sword of the Berserk and Skies of Arcadia, when I notice that my Dreamcast power cord has mysteriously vanished! After searching high and low for it, I threw my stress ball up against the wall and sobbed myself to sleep. I called around to all my local video game peddlers, and none of them had any in stock. Does anyone know where I can find one for cheap online? I'm jonesing for some SEGA Swirl action!

Any PS2 or XBOX cord will work.

EDIT: But XBOX cords will fit strangely (they are differently shaped).

EDIT 2: Generic cords should be $3 at Radioshack.

Yep. Go with the generic cord.

either get the generic or use your ps2 cord, which i do.

Not only PS2/XBOX, but alot of DVD players alsouse the same type of cable

yeah the DC cord is the same generic most electronics come with. I used an old cell phone charger base cord and that worked fine.

Yeah, I'd offer you an extra of mine free, just with shipping, but I think it'd be cheaper to head over to the Shack. XD

I know my dollar store has these generic cords... might be worth checking ur local dollar store.

looks like the problem is solved before i can offer my helpful advice

Go figure, all the power cords I have laying around my house have the solid rectangular plug, not the circle-box shape I need!

I found a power cord from an old box fan, cut off the circular piece, and hooked it up to my Dreamcast. Thanks for all the input guys.
