Forums - Gaming - 9 years ago , the Dreamcast was released...a short, but amazing life.

I have one because of the fighting games on it, but i thought it was a POS system.

Would I be wrong in saying a lot of former Sega fans have gone to the Xbox and now see MS as 'the new Sega'?

you're not wrong...I can't explain why but MS seemed like a company to go for after Sega fell off the map. MS seems to have continued the online model sega was trying to accomplish...but there is more...I don't know what tho...



NEVER FORGET!!!

Power Stone, Soul Calibur, Crazy Taxi, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Aerowings, Shemnue, Samba De Amigo...

The circumstances of the death of the Sega Dreamcast is why I hate Sony..



Pixel Art can be fun.

Street Fighters, Jet Set Radio, Powerstone, Shenmue, Chu Chu Rocket. Great Console.



Ynwa.

Well, the 32X and the Saturn left a bad taste in many gamers´mouth...but with the DC, Sega seemed to be doing almost everything right.

Too bad that it had no DVD drive. With how it has been living its short life, the PS2/DC clash could've been huge.

 

 

it was being added but never released

 You'd kinda be wrong as Sega focuses way more on Nintendo and Sony than Microsoft. And I'm sure a lot of dreamcast owners had PS2s. The again Microsoft did design the OS for the dreamcast.....



Ive said it before and il say it again...naming it Dreamcast was a mistake. Anything would have been a better name than that.

The games were excellent (Shenmue in particular) but when you give a console a crappy name, it isnt going to appeal to the masses



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

The good old days...




The DreamCast and Saturn were never been available in my country, so I was shocked that Sega had a console other than the Genesis out.

The only thing the Genesis was known for was Sonic games, The SNES was WAY more famous here, and it had a great library of games too.

Never touched a Sega system (expect when I go to my aunt's house to play Sonic there for few times).

So yeah, I grew up with Nintendo ^_^
