    Worth every penny

    Amazing mod! Picture quality is higher and better than current DC ports on modern consoles and nothing beats playing Dreamcast on a modern TV with a real DC controller. An absolute must for any Dreamcast diehard fans!

    Amazing product for a Dreamcast lover, stellar service

    Posted by Adam Ismail on Feb 19th 2023

    Completely impressed by both the quality of the DC Digital kit as well as Stone Age Gamer`s installation service. Thanks to both, my most-prized console is future-proofed to continue to make memories for years to come. Stone Age`s service is top notch, and the staff was even willing to work with me on a return ship date because I was out of town when my system was due to arrive home. I`ve been playing my new-and-improved Dreamcast for about a month now and I haven`t noticed a single hiccup with the hardware or its install — cannot recommend them enough!

    The best HDMI solution for the Dreamcast made even better, excellent service from SAG as usual

    Posted by Owen on Jan 12th 2023

    I had tried the original revision of the DCDigital hardware before (back when it was still called the DCHDMI!) and while it was super nice, the black borders at 1080p was a bit of a bummer. This new revision of the mod has a built-in polyphase scaler, so full-screen 1080p is now doable with razor-sharp results. Not only that, but a perfect 3x scale is now possible at 1920x1440p. (Be aware that there is no support for 2560x1440p, so make sure your display supports 1920x1440p if you intend to use the 1440p mode).

    Also included in this revision is PixelFX’s surprisingly robust scanline engine, which has been fun to mess around with (although I typically stick with the “slot small 3” preset unless the game calls for horizontal scanlines).

    And lastly, turnaround time to get this installed was super quick - I’m not too far away from the Stone Age Gamer storefront so I’m sure that helps, but I shipped my console out and had it back in less than a week!

    Excellent Installation

    Posted by Weaver Ng on Jul 16th 2021

    The service took around 14 days from send off to return. The installation was very fast and the quality looks very very professional. Compared to my Beharbros Akura dreamcast HDMI adapter, this is a step up in quality. The video is sharper with this installation and there are many more options to adjust the resolution. Then, there is the convenience of just plugging in the mini HDMI. Highly recommended to get the installation here if you you want done quickly and reliably.

    Awesome and Amazing video image quality, quick turn around.

    Posted by Dallas on Jun 22nd 2021

    I can not believe how amazing the image quality is, even better than when I hooked it to a CRT Via the VGA Box, makes the Dreamcast easily compete with systems like PS3 and Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Definitely worth the cost of the MOD. My Dreamcast never look better.
    Very quick turn around time, it took longer to get to Stone Age Gamer than it did to come back to me, it arrived on the Monday after the week I shipped it out. I shipped it out on Wednesday 6/9 and it came back on Monday 6/14.

    At first I thought something went wrong with it after I messed around with the video setting to get Hydro Thunder to run properly. After changing the settings all my games looked fuzzy, even when I selected 1080p video out put, turned out I had forgotten to turn Force VGA back on, after doing that the image quality was crisp and sharp again.

    Amazing Mod Job

    Posted by Tyler Ash on Jun 18th 2021

    Stone Age Gamer did an amazing job with the install. It looks factory install clean and they integrated the DC Digital with the MODE that was already installed in my Dreamcast. They received my Dreamcast on a Friday and shipped it Monday. Stone Age Gamer answered my questions and provided me with status updates along the way. Will absolutely use them again in the future.

    Ultra-professional service, great picture

    Posted by Kevin Hull on Apr 20th 2021

    This is the first time I've ever had anything professionally installed. I was really impressed with both the communication, and service-level of the SAG team, and the results of the installation is spectacular. The Dreamcast looks better and plays better than ever before. I couldn't be happier.
