Yamaha: the only manufacturer that you can buy a cd drive, a motorcycle, and a piano from.
Yamaha is based
Chatting gd, not cd
With Glock, I could buy a shower curtain rod, a semi-automatic pistol, and horse semen at the same time (at one point anyways)
And Phillips is the only manufacturer where you can buy a toothpaste charger, a cd gaming device, and a buzzer (example)
Mitsubishi makes Cars, Engines
Air-conditioning and refrigeration systems, Compressors and mechanical turbines, Printing machinery, Rubber and tire machinery, Chemical plants
Hydraulic components and probably a whole lot more.
15:58 - So fun fact: A “Sega Smash Pack Vol. 2” actually does exist, but it only got a PC release. It’s actually how I played Sonic 2 for the first time as a kid…
Shining Force on PC was great
Damn I actually had no idea
Well yea, but "Sega Smash Pack Vol. 1" and "Sega Smash Pack Vol 2." for Windows both came out before "Sega Smash Pack Volume 1" came out for Dreamcast (with some games from both packs, and ones that were in neither.) Also Sega Smash Pack Vol 2 for windows was really Pack 3, with Pack 2 being "Sega Puzzle Pack"
@@johnbuscher7119my man.
Let's go back to end of 1999. Dreamcast launched in US with 20+ games, with one of the largest generational graphics leaps ever. Doubled the resolution of the PS1 & N64 and games usually ran at 60fps. Before even accounting for the fact that it was only $199 at launch. I absolutely love that it has such a dedicated fanbase now, even if it will never truly get the respect it deserves
One of the Sony CEOs bragged in his autobiography about how they knocked SEGA out of the hardware market with corporate coldwar tactics.
Basically Sony had that Walkman money and could sell Playstations at a loss and would recoup from licensing and game sales. Which they did. They also gobbled up every stray 3rd party developer that was scraping by on a shoestring budget and pumped out the largest library in history of shovelware for unsuspecting grandparents to gift wrap for soon to be disappointed children across the globe on Christmas morning.
But that's another story
@@b1llygo4t Sony still has questionable business practices
Sony’s PS2 was the biggest over hyped console in history. It was so much overhyped that it was presented as a DVD player that can play your PS1 games. It was pure marketing strategy to present it as the next big thing and to destroy the competition but little went into the console itself which was apparent from its mediocre launch titles.
Prior to Dreamcast console games generally ran at 320 by 240p, Dreamcast upped that to 640 by 480 which is 2x vertical & 2x horizontal so 4x the resolution & most games supported the VGA box so it was also high color reproduction & proper progressive scan
@@b1llygo4t I don't know who you're talking about, but Sony did nothing but help SEGA during the 32-bit era. It's SEGA's own fault they had to stop making consoles. They let a rubbish, unambitious engineer overdesign the Saturn, the same guy who turned away the cheaper, more efficient, more POWERFUL architecture that would become the N64. They launched said console for 400 dollars in the west, at a handicap, with no hype or fanfare. They hired the late and not so great Sernie Bolar after Sony FIRED him for not selling enough PlayStations in America. Between him, his idol Nakayama, the aforementioned rubbish engineer, and his underlings "Gretchen" and later Peter Moore, the guy who used SEGA's games to get a job at XBOX, It's no wonder SEGA went under as a hardware manufacturer.
I love the Dreamcast as much as the next guy, I love the Saturn MORE than the next guy, but c'mon, guys. Sony did absolutely nothing but exploit Sega's own hubris. Regardless of what either company's corporate schmucks would have us believe.
I love that the dreamcast has kept such a lively community over all these years. For a system that sold less than the Wii U thats impressive.
The reason why the Mario 64 runs poorly is because of how the N64 hardware works. The N64 didn't have any soundchip so the music and sounds was made entirely by the CPU which is a demanding task. The Dreamcast however, had a soundchip and it was even better than the PS2. So if the port had used the sound chip, it would've run at full speed. This is the reason why there's an option to disable music on the Dreamcast port. Also remember, the port was made by 1 person in a week so it isn't perfect.
Slight tangent not related to the Dreamcast, but from what I know about studying the N64 HW the sound usually wasn't handled by the CPU, but the RCP. The RCP is a custom co-proccessor made of two units (RSP and RDP) that the N64 has that is optimized for graphics and audio processing. It is similar to a CPU so audio was handled by software and not a traditional soundchip, but the CPU was separate and didn't have to deal with audio processing unless it was coded that way by the developer.
That might help explain the slow speed since the Dreamcast probably has a much faster CPU, but now it has to do double the work.
@@Ty4onsYes, and the audio backend would have to be rewritten completely to get full speed with audio. Mrneo240 told me he wasn't going to attempt that as it would be a gargantuan task but totally possible. Streaming in CDDA audio from disc image if rewritten to support CDDA would make it run better with zero strain on CPU or going above 16mb ram limitations. That was the good thing about that. But the DC Yamaha audio AICA chip could do some amazing electronic synthesized sounds as Shenmue produced them on the fly in real time to help cut down on disc space. It is why the music sounds so good in that game to this day.
The community really said “Fine, we’ll do it ourselves!” And kept it alive. It may have been Sega’s final console but that’s what makes it special, that even 20 years after it is still kept alive and loved by people. It’s almost like the PS Vita in a way, abandoned by Sony and taken over by the fans. This is what I love to see about old consoles!
I remember someone at my college bringing their dreamcast to school and hooking it up to the tv to play jet set radio and it was glorious. Everyone else would bring their switches or ps4s, but I think the dc was definitely the most interesting
So much of Half-Life’s development and expansions and ports had such interesting stories behind it. Always cool to see someone discover this neat little facet of its history.
The people who worked on Bleem are insanely talented, cannot believe how good MGS1 looks running via emulation on hardware that's only a few years newer than the PS1
just gonna say, the dreamcast controller has hall effect joysticks. So it's technically better than using just a single joy con.
One small correction: the Dreamcast has a Hitachi SH4 CPU as its main processor, not a MIPS CPU like you say in the video. Sure, they are both RISC CPUs, but they are not compatible with each other.
It's nice to see both Linux and NetBSD running on the DC. I was thinking of porting OpenBSD to the DC, but I didn't get very far.
Anyway, consider this as my entry for the giveaway. 2.7 k comments is a pretty good response!
when he booted RedHat and said he couldn't do anything without a mouse.. the nerd in me died a bit. i was really hoping he'd ctrl+alt+T and run neofetch or something. it's not that difficult to connect to the internet and launch a browser from command line either
@@XxXMrSisterFisterXxX
Well, I have a DC mouse and DC keyboard, so I wouldn't have the same problem. What I do want to get, though, is a Broadband Adapter (BBA) or two. Perhaps he's not that familiar with the Linux terminal.
I was thinking of trying to port Darwin/XNU to the SuperH but I don't have any HW that has it and QEMU is slow (ironically).
I never had one growing up, but I've always thought the Dreamcast was so much more than a footnote in gaming history, and I always thought it was so cool. The homebrew community surrounding it is unlike anything I've ever seen, and every day it continues to impress me.
The dreamcast was a magical system that could finally allow arcade perfect ports of so many classic games. Then it died. Love that little guy.
I would also like to mention that the Dreamcast is home to the best game of all time: the home port of Soul Calibur 1, which instead of simply porting what was a PS1-level arcade game was instead remade entirely from scratch to be a launch title for the American release. It still looks and plays amazing to this day.
Soul Calibur 1 on Dreamcast is still to this day one of my favorite fighting games ever. And I still always play my OG disc on my actual dreamcast too
Oh for sure. Soul Calibur is one of my favorites, I always play Kilik. CATS! CATS! CATS!
Dead Or Alive 2, Virtua Fighter 3 TB, Street Fighter 3
I love the Dreamcast. I have so many good memories playing this with my friends when they got one. It hearkens back to a time I'd give anything to go back to. Those friends and I drifted apart over the years and when I play DC, in a small way it takes me back when we were young and had some great times together. Man I miss those days.
"It grew and it thrived, that's the story of the Dreamcast" @Bringus you are the Dreamcast, you are the dog that doesn't live up to most peoples expectations, but with the right audience we love you and what you do with all these videos, please keep growing!
The text file explaining how to load your own ROMs is hilarious and was a great tidbit to include 🙂
One of my sister's childhood friends houses burned down back in like, 2013, and she lost almost everything... But her kids had a Sega Dreamcast with a small number of games. The games were destroyed in the fire (aside from Disc 1 of Resident Evil: Code Veronica) but the console itself only suffered external damage. She ended up selling that Dreamcast to my sister, who surprised me with it one day, and I was pretty excited! The Dreamcast is a neat little piece of tech history that is too-often overlooked.
there is just something so special about the sound effects you use and all of the references are just so great. I love this channel
I grew up with a Colecovision lol. The controller with the 16” coily cable and the joystick with torture needles built into the bottom. I may still have it in my basement actually haha
I know you said basically no one had one of these growing up, but somehow it was my first console. Thanks for making this video to show off the fantastic efforts of the people still supporting the Dreamcast 23 years, wow that's a long time, after it was supposed to be dead
I love how you were genuinely gushing about our communities little white box. She is a poorly kept secret we love seeing new folks experience. It is why we have kept her alive for so long, because we saw her true potential and knew her greatness.
Thank you for seeing her like we do. Not with rose tinted glasses, but as a retro powerhouse that still gets retail games every year more and more games come out!
its sad it was neglected by its creator, would have been cool to see SEGA Dreamcast 3 that will be head to head with PS3,early PS4 and Wii/WIi U, or Dreamcast 4 that might be ahead of PS4 but not really reaching PS5 yet, or even toe to toe with PS5 and relased in 2018 or something when Nvidia goes Full Flex with RTX GPU
@@shiro3146Dead or Alive 4 is being demaked into DOA2 right now on Dreamcast, and other games are planned to get the same treatment. Model importing tools for Naomi/Dreamcast games has matured enough to the point where customs models and collision is already working in game. DOA4 levels on Dreamcast is very crazy to see. More games can have custom content too like Crazy Taxi possibly getting CT3 city and vehicles or Ferrari 355 Challenge being used as a base to port over Outrun 2 car models to truly transform it into the ultimate Ferrari simulator!
Search "Dead or Alive 2 Kyoto in bloom" to see DOA4 levels working in that game on real Dreamcast hardware. Surreal seeing it. VF4 demake using 3TB as a base will happen for sure in our lifetime. This is just the beginning now that these modding tools have advanced enough. The future is now and in our own hands!
I remember always playing the Dreamcast in Sears when they had it loaded up with Sonic Adventure. It's awesome what the modding and homebrew community continue to do for these forgotten systems. Great video!
3:05
What I think Optical Media is good for is to be ripped using a PC optical drive, and then the ripped game can be stored in physical storages like SSDs or SD cards.
Otherwise you can just resell them to a "infected person" after ripping them to recoup some cash, in the same time you'll never lose the game because you have it digitally stored and you basically own it.
This is the way
I mean, I definitely didn’t burn Linkin Park’s 2003 masterpiece Meteora and sell it for $5/piece to the 5th and 6th grade kids at school😬
just saying, digital collections are boring and lame. just download it for free at that point, skip the whole ripping process its pointless
@@CatOnVenus183 every game collection is digital it came free with your media storage device
I burned a CD for The Life of Pablo and sold it to my friend in highschool after totally not illegally downloading it lmao
I bought a dreamcast like a decade ago at a flea market and honestly think it is such a cool system. The lack of copy protection made it easy to explore the library despite being a poor teenager since I always had a stack of CD-Rs
I'm glad you made this video. I loved the dreamcast and I am a huge fan of modding consoles. Combining the two is great, never knew how much it can do.
I'm loving the fact it still has such a active homebrew scene going on for this console. Morbidly curious who /when /where will pop up with improvements on some of the jankier parts of it suddenly being worked around and turning it into a killer emu device.
Don't forget the translation scene! The Dreamcast got a lot of Japan-exclusive games that to this day haven't been re-released and some them have been translated by the community. Some examples include Frame Gride (a mech combat game by FromSoftware, their only game on the DC iirc), Cool Cool Toon (a Rhythm game by SNK) and Napple Tale (a cutesy 2.5D platformer). There's also El Dorado Gate, an RPG series by Capcom that STILL hasn't been translated or re-released.
There's also fanmade ports of several Sammy Atomiswave games. Some these games like Dolphin Blue and Demolish Fist still haven't been re-released and are pretty cool games in their own right.
There are also some really good Japan only SMUPS on the Dreamcast. Because of the Naomi arcade system real arcade games were still being released years after the Dreamcast was officially dead.
omfg the dreamcast is literally THE CONSOLE i wanted you to talk about.
Edit: also the video was great :)
fr same i’ve been binging dreamcast stuff recently too 😭
I can't believe people are still doing things for the dreamcast it is truly unbelievable and yet so exciting to see what else will be on there in the future, only time will tell!
It’s awesome seeing some of these homebrew ports on here. It’s also crazy there’s crossplay between a game on steam and a game on the Dreamcast!
Finally, a Dreamcast homebrew video
Hopefully that deep Bringus part is back....
I fought tooth and nail to get a Dreamcast, and when I finally got it, that first day I played so much my grandmother missed her soap operas, and I got scolded for not sharing the TV. Once I got older and homebrew and modding was easier to understand, I got some games burned and brought it to my college dorm to play Jojo's Bizarre Adventure with my roommates. That little system has so many memories for me for as little life as it had.
for some reason this is the One Sega Console i have had a required hyperfixation on for so long and even then i had zero idea about how lively they community behind it is and still is to keep giving it life while i was upset assuming that wasn't there, that's genuinely the nicest thing i've learned about today ;w;
I love the Dreamcast and it was a personal favorite of mine in the 6th generation. I remember bringing it home from camping for it, hooking it up and then plugging it into my phone jack to go online with it. NUTS! The fact that it was internet ready out-of-the-box was a first for me. I played so much Phantasy Star Online that way before moving to the Broadband Adapter. And yes, the original PSO is compatible with the lan adapter, you just need to use it with a copy of Broadband Passport first.
Sega's games were so bright, colorful, and just crazy fun. Nothing but good memories with that system.
Yeah best consol ever for me, internet in my teenage bedroom, coping save at school ( VMU to VMU ). Good memories 🤤
If this video was made by anyone else, I probably wouldn't have clicked it, but Bringus videos hit different. I see Bringus, I click Bringus.
The Dreamcast is an ocean of homebrew, so much so that there could be room for a follow-up video. The Atomiswave arcade ports, (Metal Slug 6 , Dolphin Blue, King of Fighters and more) various media players and unbelievable Quake 1 hardware accelerated port are just some of the incredible standouts on the system.
Its fun seeing small scenes like the dreamcast one in such a well edited piece.
That crossplay game is wild. Surprising that the modem on the dreamcast can even work at all anymore
The Dreamcast is truly a legendary console. Also had by far the best Arcade ports
The Dreamcast wasn't just a console; it was a gateway to endless possibilities, and it left an indelible mark on my childhood gaming adventures. With masterpieces like Jet Set Radio, Sonic Adventure, ChuChu Rocket!, Space Channel 5, and arguably the best platform for arcade ports like Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Don't you mean "jet *GRIND* radio"? Lol
@@DuelingDexperts The original name of Jet Grind Radio is actually Jet Set Radio.☝️🤓 It was released in Japan.
The name was changed for its North American release due to trademark issues with the name "Jet Set" to avoid potential legal conflicts ☝️🤓
@@doradojesus2808 yeah I know that I was just poking fun at the fact you used the original name. But it was a fantastic game by any name. Though I still hold to that the grind name sounded better. Even if it was only for Americans due to trademark issues.
I bought my 1st Sega Dreamcast September 9, 1999. I lent it to a so called friend and never saw it again. I was hooked on it from the 1st NFL 2K game that came out. My friends and I used to put 2 computer teams against each other and watch the game. It was so good for it's time. Takes me back to some good times. I was a Saturn collector too and Sega CD as well. Still have those collections too. SEGA!!! 👊😆
I had the Vsmile and played Halo 2 on my Grandpa's Xbox when I was little... A little under aged gaming never hurt anybody. It more nostalgic than inappropriate.
I owned a Saturn, and i fell in love with the Dreamcast when I saw it. I played at my friend's house to SOF with the keyboard and mouse, and House of the Dead with the gun remote. Good 'ol times.
My dad and my uncle had a Dreamcast. Unfortunately he sold it so I have never used a Dreamcast. I still love it because of how cool and advanced it was at the time and how cool it still is now.
All these years later, I still love the Dreamcast. Had one when they first came out. I would still play this thing.
I played my Dreamcast religiously when I was growing up. Thanks for the nostalgia.
I've never messed with the dreamcast personally and i have no memories of it from when i was a child, but I've always heard it has some amazing games for it, and I knew the homebrew was always good, but never thought it was as extensive as what was shown here. This video makes me want a dreamcast and i feel like that's a dangerous thought, for some reason.
thanks for keeping me sane during chemo and this past eight months or so; it's been rough but you never cease to make me smile, no matter how creepy it makes me feel
hol up chemo? Do you have cancer? If so, man I am sorry and I hope this video helped you through something as hellsih as that.
The vibe of the dreamcast really adds to running homebrew on it in a way, like you’re going back in time
Really exciting to see such a thriving homebrew scene on the Dreamcast!
As someone with hundreds of burned game discs, I've always battled with the idea of getting an SD reader. Yes, it's convenient and mostly hassle free. But on the other hand, there's something neat about flipping through the selections, picking a disc, popping it in, and pretending it's 1999, load times and all. The Sega Saturn also has a very interesting homebrew scene, I would absolutely recommend checking it out!
The primary reason to use an optical drive emulator over burned discs is the optical drive is the first thing in disc based consoles that will fail, and there aren't replacements for Sega' proprietary format. Remove the moving part and you instantly add another 20 years to the lifespan of the machine.
@@JD-xz1mx True!
Cost is also a factor though and weighing the cost of a $100-200 emu and a $30 optical assembly replacement is easy for me.
I always remembered the Dreamcast as that weird neighbor you always had.
Brings Back Memories. I used to own back in the day when I was young but after moving from state to state it got lost. Lately I've been collecting game consoles and creating a game archive for each console with complete sets of roms that I'm able to play on external media. But after hearing about the gd emulation addon replacement for the optical drive I almost want to get a dreamcast with that and download every iso so that when my future kids get older I can take them back to the nostalgia I had.
Dreamcast's homebrew support has the be the best for any console to date. The fact that games and ports are still being made 20+ years with consistency is amazing. You didn't even touch about the beats of rage engine which is my fav. Basically just unlimited beat'em up potential. Great video!
I bought a Dreamcast day one. I was fourteen years old in EB games at Carlingwood in Ottawa on 9/9/99. They wouldn't sell it to me at first because I didn't have a pre-order, but someone cancelled a minute after I asked so I was able to walk out with the console, Sonic Adventure 2 and Ready 2 Rumble Boxing.
And then a few years later I got a PS2 and my world was changed forever.
LIVE AND LEEEEEEARN
uhh might wanna check your post, you didnt walk out with Sonic Adventure 2 on day one.
i love how at 2:17 it shows a picture someone took on their phone of their computer screen
Wow, this takes me back. I used to play Dreamcast at a friend's house growing up.
Honestly, glad that the community is keeping this console alive. Like you, I never thought it was special, but after seeing the love the fans still hold for it, it’s definitely got a better spot in gaming history other than the “Failed Sega Console”
The dreamcast has such an excellent vibe. I'm so glad it is getting the love it deserves! Maybe I should look around my area for one 👀
What a time to live to see my childhood console still being talked about!
I had a Dreamcast back in the day. It has some absolute gems. Jet Set Radio is still one my favorites.
The Dreamcast is so underrated to me it's still a great console the homebrew that is being released has lots of love and care put into it and it shows thank you for an amazing video all your videos are amazing
I remember having the exact same experience as him when ai discovered the existence of the Dreamcast. I never knew Sega made more consoles after the Genesis or that some of my favorite games from the GC/PS2 era were DC titles originally. Nowadays I love this console so much. Long live the Dreamcast! 🙏
The Dreamcast was definitely ahead of its time. I remember finding out about burning games in the early to mid 2000s and just going nuts with it. I recently played the DC port of Soul Calibur 1and I’m always impressed by what this console pumped out.
The modding/homebrew community constantly blows my mind when it comes to showing what they are capable of.
Pretty solid video, I grew up with a Dreamcast and honestly the library of games is really what makes the system unique, there's a lot of platform exclusive weird games on that thing- and you're pretty much on point in saying it's like a precursor to the Xbox.
Sometimes you go into a video with mid expectations and then come out of it really impressed.
This is definitely one of those times.
The Dreamcast homebrew scene casts your dreams. Wonderful.
It's amazing to see in 2024 how alive this is
ive always loved the dreamcast. i have fond memories of visiting my grandmas house on the weekends and begging to play the sonic adventure demo on the dreamcast demo disk that she had, that and the demo for powerstone 2 made me feel like i was really playing something special.
0:13 cant believe you managed to get one of the 9 dreamcasts ever sold!!
No, dude-you don't know the HISTORY! The Dreamcast came too late to rescue Sega's console business.
I'm sure it would have kept up if it had DVD media
@@shadowopsairman1583 That's not the point, The 32x and Sega Saturn were released within the same week as Sega of Japan and America were split in their projects, causing confusion and throwing consistency and tracking into chaos. They needed to unify as a company, and released an awesome Dreamcast, but too much damage has been done and they lost too much money to go on.
@@shadowopsairman1583It wouldn’t have saved Sega anyways, since Sega was already financially crippled by that point and slapping a full fledged DVD player was far too expensive at the time. For context, DVD players back in the late 90s were prohibitively expensive at the time and the Dreamcast launched on November 27th ‘98 (Initial launch in Japan) which means that not many folks had DVD players at the time unless they were willing to pay an expensive fee for one.
@@shadowopsairman1583Except DVD players back in the late 90s were prohibitively expensive. Slapping a DVD drive wouldn’t have helped either way since Sega was already financially crippled and with how DVD players at the time of the Dreamcast’s launch (November 27th, ‘98 in Japan) were far too expensive for the average person to afford.
Always nice to see people talking about the Dreamcast
Something about the Dreamcast controller with the VMU just feels so charming in a way other consoles aren’t
Just when TH-cam was in a drought of content you come in to save the day. 😊

@@chady51 lmao i forgot about this, i wonder who actually won it.
I bought a Dreamcast at release from my first paycheck. I loved it, especially the ton of Arcade like titles. Later on in 2003 I used it as my little Emu machine. Now I still occasionally get it out to play a bit. The online function was awesome, unbelievable for the time for most of us. I still need to get a GDEmu though. Had enough of handling CD's and the loud drive
One of my best friends had a Dreamcast. We spent so many summers well after it’s time playing games together. I miss him.

I had a dreamcast growing up! My dad was into video games, so he originally bought it for himself. That was the first console I remember playing video games on!
I'm glad you covered this! I've been hoping for a chance to get a Dreamcast. When I was little, my cousin had one and I thought it was super cool!
Thanks for the great video. The Dreamcast was my favorite console of all time! I had no idea that new games are still being created for it (unofficially). Gonna have to get me one and check this stuff out!
i'd absolutely love to have that since it would complete my collection of consoles from that generation
I used to have a dreamcast when I was younger, and remember playing the original 2d side scroller sonic with my dad, we got rid of it not long after that. I don't have any other memories with the dreamcast aside from with my dad but still good memories none the less.
I remember going to see a movie in 99 with my buddy and seeing an ad for the Dreamcast which was the first time we heard about it. We were blown away and we kept talking about it and then the ps2 came out and we forgot all about it.
Thank you for making this video and showing me a whole new world.
Never forget.

I was born 1995.
I was a kid at the twilight of the PS1/N64/Saturn Era and The Entirety of the PS2/GCN/XBOX/DC era.
I remember as well that everyone in the 00’s had either a PS2 or a GameCube. I feel like most kids had a PS2 over a GameCube, though.
I remember the Dreamcast back in the day when it was still actively selling off store shelves. Before it was discontinued.
My older brother got it for Christmas 2000 in our small little apartment in the Bronx. He got Sonic Adventure and Shenmue with it. That Christmas after we all opened our gifts, we went to go test out the Dreamcast and Sonic Adventure. We Watched him play Emerald Coast and were amazed.
Really awesome how many things have been ported to the dreamcast. I hope games continue to be made for it!
My middle school had a Dreamcast for the student's rec center and it's how I started playing Sonic Adventure 2. It wasn't available by the time my parents were willing to buy me a console, but SA2B was on the Gamecube so of course I got that instead. This video is nostalgic for sure. Good luck to the giveaway winner.
Dude, i LOVE this system! I loved your video so much too! You had me cracking up!!
Keep up the great work on making YT videos!!
Dude this brings back memories! My first console was a Dreamcast. I still regret giving that thing away, Sonic Adventure 2 was my childhood, man.
Loved my dreamcast, bought it with my first paycheck in like 2000, glad it's still getting indie love.
This video truly show how much you like gaming, I never have a Dreamcast and I didn't know it can emulate all that. Anyway good work, I will go check other video on your channel now lol
I bought my day one Dreamcast when I was in the military on base and it was my favorite system to play for a long time. So many great games.
As a kid, I had the opposite experience: I never got an original Xbox, but I had a Dreamcast and enjoyed it long after it was cancelled. Long story short, I don't have it anymore; It went, "missing," along with like half of my game collection. I even had the keyboard and mouse to go with it. Some rare games I recognized showed up in a local thrift shop together afterwards. It's funny that whoever had the games last didn't know that Hey You Pikachu! and the VRU for it were part of a set...
