I don’t think having the manager of Sega in Shenmue sitting in front of a pile of unsold Dreamcasts had the message they were going for in the long run
I see what you are saying but in context, from my understanding the initial stock of Dreamcast consoles selling out in Japan was also seen as a huge failure on Sega's part to compete in the console market. The image of Hidekazu Yukawa waking up in a room filed with stock was a minor attempt to bolster confidence and image. The man really tried to keep Sega on top.

Seaman didn't account for centralized platforms driven by #engagement overtaking everything else because it's ever so slightly easier and cheaper for the user and more profitable for advertising customers
i mean if you think about it its working? kinda? like more people know about minorities than ever and it seems like more effort is being put into helping them than like,, in forever. like before the internet, there werent a lot of ways to communicate with people over the world effectively, but now with the internet, you can just straight up type in a few words and learn a lot about people on the opposite side of the earth. of course there will be biases but like,,, ngl i blame most of that on corporations feeding us info that they know we'll consume **cough cough** twitter, instagram, youtube, etc etc.. sorry if i went on a bit of a tangent btw, i am passionate about this subject lmao
Now I want, nay, NEED, a full Cybershell Seaman deep dive video. Also I love console variants but I've never actually looked very deeply into Dreamcast variations (even though I own a Dreamcast - a european one, so I guess technically it's a variant?), so this was really interesting. 40 minute Cybershell videos always hit.
@@enjoyerofcake2123 How wrong you are... Seaman goes deeper than you could ever imagine. Besides, Cybershell literally said there's a lot more to talk about but he didn't because it was getting too off-topic for this video.
@Alex rousak This guy could talk about paper towels for an hour and it'd still be interesting. Just the thought of Cybershell making a 10 minutes Seaman video is mind orgasmic.
The Dreamcast experience in Japan reminds me of that year when I didn't have a laptop and had to use my Wii for web browsing and TH-cam. Honestly relatively comfy. Dreamcast probably felt much the same way in 1999 with its "computer mini" aspects.
What i wouldn't give to experience the dreamcast in Japan in it's hay day. Man it seems so cool and surreal to think that this console could do just so much stuff way back in 99
This was how I was with my PSP for about two years. Had no laptop, and limited access to the family PC. So for anything personal or to muck around online, I used the PSP's internet function. It was a real novelty to me, having never had a laptop and smartphones being far too expensive at the time.
The browser was very short on features and many sites didn't load and those that did were not displayed properly. Plus if you didn't have the mouse and keyboard it was pretty difficult to navigate. It was still pretty cool to access the internet on your tv with a dreamcast even if it wasn't the best experience.
Tom from The Dreamcast Junkyard here. Great video, and thanks for the shoutout - lots of research went into everything referenced in this video so it's very decent of you to cite sources. 'Subbed' as the kids say these days :D
The mazora and the Sonic 10th Anniversary are the ones that I liked the most on the list. I've never owned a Dreamcast, but it's a very interesting console
25:15 I zoned out while you were talking about Seaman and suddenly you started talking about the properties of microscopic paint fibers and reflectivity of certain paint properties like you've been in the field of chemistry for 40 years. I'm half convinced it was nonsense that doesn't mean anything but thank you for the retention check. Never change, Cybershill.
@@thatguymatt5816he literally calls himself that and it just means you're a sellout. Something cybershell is the opposite of which is what makes it funny
Something about the way Cybershell can just effortlessly spout off highly technical jargon in a semi-condescending but clearly joking manner without a break in speech is eternally hilarious. That bit about the chromaflair deep dive had me laughing the hardest I have in months.
Fun fact: A choice few weapons in Phantasy Star Online had abilities dependent on the internet beat time. So kid me playing with the Heaven Striker gun learned the basic beat time idea so that I knew when my lasers from above special attack was active.

I remember some gaming magazine sweepstakes contest where you could win the final console ever produced, signed by the entire dreamcast team, and it came with all accessories and games ever made for it. Seemed pretty cool
the "what you think itd be a gold dreamcast" leading into you saying imagine if someone actually ended a top 10 list like that had me laughing, then the cut to the gold dreamcast had me howling of laughter dude shit was gold. then the outro saying "i could really tie this together with a bow on top cohesively. so i decided not to do that. bye!" had me fucking laughing as well. good shit. you got hearty laughs out of me man
To me what's crazy about Seaman is that the voice actor of the aforementioned creature is the same as the protagonist Francis York Morgan from Deadly Premonition, and you can't stop thinking about the similarities between Seaman speaking to the player vs. York talking about movies to Zach when they are alone (and he also did E-123 Omega's voice in Shadow the Hedgehog)
This video includes a nearly complete oral history of the Seaman franchise, a description of a long-forgotten method of timekeeping, an explanation of the physics of iridescent materials, and a mention of a Japanese health insurance company. And it includes some sick fucking dreamcasts
Hey, I have the first Dreamcast you mention! I got my Sega Sports edition of the console from a flea market. It was originally selling for $20, no controller, no memory thingy, no games. I was really interested in it because I'd never encountered a black one before. One of the vendors for the table the console was on asked if I was interested. I explained I wanted the console, but didn't have anymore cash on me (it was true, pretty sure she watched me buy a pretty wall fan next-door). She asked me to wait a second since it was her son's. She went and talked to him and after a second they both came back. After looking at which console I was interested in, and looking at me, he told me I could just have it. He used to play the console every day, but after a while he didn't have time to play it anymore and long before sold off the game collection for it. He said he was just happy it was going to someone who knew what it was and seemed to really want it. I have been loving it for over a decade now myself, and it's still an active device on my entertainment center.
Cybershell is one of the few people on the internet that gets me hyped for a 40min video about the rarest form of a console I never had or played. Edit: I want a Dreamcast now lol
@gn@z Dreamcast has shit copyright protection so there's no modding required. Just burn some games onto some CDR's, pop them into the console, and play. Shit you not, it's that easy. That's how I played illbleed.
@gn@z no need for modding really unless you want HDMI output in the thing. I got a Japanese Dreamcast and my entire collection is American games on burned CDs, never ran into trouble doing that
Expecting a fairly straightforward and interesting video and getting pummeled with lore and tons of additional information is the classic cybershell experience
Man. I was such a dumbass. When I was little we had 3 dreamcasts. It was my first console, and when SEGA was selling them so cheap my parents bought extras. So we had 2 brand new Dreamcasts in the box, but my dumbass opened both of them when I was like 8 or 9 because I wanted to see them and use a new one just because. Man I could have had a valuable console. Oh well. Still got it ;3
Man brand new dreamcasts were still selling for less than $100 on eBay as recently as 2009. Wish I could go back in time and buy them up. I was 12 at the time
When it was released it felt that everyone had a Dreamcast at least in my school so I was really surprised that it was discontinued. It didn't feel like the Saturn where I was the only one who had it.
Kids will ask their parents for whatever console all their friends have. Once a couple people buy one all their friends will want the same one. Where I grew up everyone had a PS2 and then everyone had an Xbox 360. I think I knew one single kid that had an original Xbox, not one person had a Dreamcast or Gamecube and when everyone moved to the Xbox 360 there were two kids in the whole town that had a PS3 instead.
That jerma clip where the seaman spills the beans on Jeremy saying he is insecure about his height will always live rent free in my head I love these times of videos. Keep on being epic cyber man
Seaman was actually very known around the time it was new from what I recall, I think it was just buried and forgotten fairly quickly. But I got a free demo on an ODCM disk of it and the most popular websites were giving it plenty of coverage and it was talked about plenty on message boards at the time. 12:59 Predictive programming?(the next minute and a half or so)
My favorites are the transparent Dreamcast. I always enjoyed the Early 2000s tech design. It's surprising just how many versions of the Dreamcast are out there. Sega really wanted the console to be used by everyone.
Oh wow, as you were describing the swatch thing and the beat timing method I realized it sounded similar to what pso's timer worked under, and then you mentioned pso and I felt so vindicated. One of those things I wondered about for years but always forgot to look up. Great video!
Never realised they tried so hard to put this amazing console out there, it deserved so much better! In Europe it was gone so quickly, i was the only one of my friends that had one and rarely have heard other people talking about it. Luckily it still has a great second life now with collectors and enthusiasts.
I bought mine from a store when they took apart the demo stand it had been in, they used the Japanese version, and sold games too. I only ever had one game for it that I forget the name of now(blue something), 3rd person, fighting some weird kind of mutants or monsters. I lived in Italy at the time, I had been busy working and had no internet but I think I bought it basically when it had flopped, not sure. Brought back memories.
I have a Sega Sports Dreamcast. Dad apparently picked it up at Best Buy in the late 90s, played Resident Evil Code Veronica, House of the Dead, and I think, like, Sonic's story in Sonic Adventure and then just kinda forgot about it for a decade or so. I was like 5 at this point in time and he and my mom were trying to find more games for me to play on our PS2 but they ended up just finding that Dreamcast stored away so they let me play Sonic on it. No, they didn't let me play any of the other games. This was the origin story of what sparked my Sonic autism storm. It's really cool though, I think iirc I also still have all of the stuff that came with it, (including the other games I mentioned too) like the cool internet discs I used to mess around with when I was 11, and some of the Sega Sports games (because, well, it's a Sega Sports variant) on top of like, two of these cool demo discs that had a bunch of Dreamcast demos on them, Sonic being one of them. The memory cards are easily the most fascinating things ever to me. Like, the Dreamcast has to be my favorite console ever. Those shits would keep me entertained for hours. It's so retardedly simple but fascinating cuz its like a literal gameboy that comes with your system and you can put chao on it and it makes you ask yourself like "why the fuck am I so horny all of the sudden?" if you get what I mean. I even begged my dad to give me another one (was like, a transparent blue color) after buying me a copy of SA2 on it (even though I already had it on Gamecube, I just wanted it to see the differences or something I think. Idk I was like 8 or 9) just so I could have the satisfaction of transferring chao between Adventure 1 and 2 for no fucking reason other than to say I did it. It was the most proud accomplishment I had ever felt by that point, and I made sure to tell EVERYONE, including my parents, family members, teachers even, but nobody had any idea what the flying fuck I was talking about. It was like when I complained about SADX's existence after I found out about it through watching a lot of Sonic TH-cam videos and then just seeing Sonic Adventure but... DIFFERENT, and it just made me so fucking mad because it wasn't the Sonic in MY Sonic Adventure and I ALSO complained about that to everyone and they also had no idea what the fuck I was talking about. Absolutely infuriating. HOW COULD THEY? Though think of that from the perspective of an elderly adult meeting a very young redheaded, maybe like 6 or 7 year old girl, the daughter of your friends who they hyped up so much as this creative and insightful child and you apparently are taken away by her "doll-like appearance" (I'm not shitting you that's actually what I've been told before) and you expect her to be into like, stereotypical little girl shit, try TALKING about it with her, trying to connect to her, you want to hear what this supposedly "creative and insightful" little girl has to say and then she just has an autistic fit about Sonic the Hedgehog and the SEGA Dreamcast and will ramble on about it for hours straight and you have absolutely no idea what the fuck you're listening to. Like, blue hedgehog? SEGA? Dreamcast? This is all just completely foreign to you and it sounds like an absolute fever dream. All I'm saying is never underestimate a prepubescent autistic sonic fan's ability to make you completely derealize within an hour or two. No one understands me. This is one of they everyday struggle gamers face and it's honestly devastating.
I would LOVE a more in-depth look at Seaman PS2 and Seaman 2. I’ve literally never heard of any of that stuff before this. By the way, another great video! I was just re-watching your Tails Gets Trolled video and I still love that and whatever you put out really
27:40 The game itself IS cool. I'm not even that big of a Gundam fan and it's easily one of my Top 5 Dreamcast favorites right next to Sonic Adventure 1 & 2. It's an arena shooter fair with loadouts based on the model mech chosen, and it gives you LOTS of control over the difficulty alongside it's own auto-balancer so you can find a spot where you're having fun no matter what you choose, even if you pick a the infamous BALL.
Isn't it just the DC version of the PS2 game called Federation vs Zeon? I would love to see a new Gundam game with a campaign like FvZ that played similarly but with a larger scale than just 4 units. The sequel to that game Gundam vs Zeta Gundam is hella good too.
@FiveByFive The interface and gameplay are identical to FvZ, so I'd assume they are basically the same game (Maybe just the arcade mode only). I prefered the campaign in FvZ over GvZ, but the variety of suits was really nice. I'd LOVE a full Universal Century version, especially with some suits from other timelines added in and some GvZ style what-if timelines too. While Gundam Crossfire was awful, it was the fun kind of awful. Something like that but large scale and actually finished would be awesome. I've also been dreaming of a Star wars Battlefront 2 (The real one) kind of game with the various classes being the various mobile suits.
I've actually seen a car with that type of chroma paint in real life that was parked around the place that I was having a jog during the summer, and I gotta say, that was one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my life. You have to physically see it for yourself to get the full picture but the car would completely change colors from purple to green depending on what angle I was looking at it from. So yeah, 10/10 paintjob would look at again
I actually worked with Nippon and even maziora paint when I first started tinkering with guitars in the early 2000s. A longtime colleague and friend is one of the most prolific finishing experts.... known the world over for his work with musical instruments. I've seen and work with all kinds of crazy stuff thanks to the access and NeverEnding assortments of things he works with and is exposed to. Also run across all kinds of weird and interesting things like that at The NAMM show every year. I have always focused predominantly on vintage reproduction instruments because that's what appealed to me most. I mean I still do work with electric guitars and things but usually they're more of your classic timeless and famous designs. A good 90% of my orders consisted of vintage reproductions and things like that. And I was always a few years behind on orders... And at least for me personally it work best if I only took orders for designs that I appreciated or was interested in exploring. But every now and then something different would come along that sounded interesting and appealing enough that I would take the job. And that's predominantly when I worked with new and interesting materials and finishes.
I LOVE when Cybershell goes deep into the most obscure videogame related stuff, I sincerely wouldn't mind if he just talked about games noone heard about just in general
not a single other channel's uploads get me as excited as these. redlettermedia is close but its so consistent i can sort of take it for granted. every cybershell upload is a blessing. i hope you dont trick yourself into thinking you dont have enough to say about seaman to make a whole video about it after this, i would love to hear you point out random shit about it that i already know
I remembered seeing your video and just by chance, a real Gold Dreamcast was listed on ebay and it was numbered of 5. The listing ended yesterday I believe and it sold for 10,300.00. It was being sold out of Germany. I never heard of it before your video and this may be the only time I ever see one. I’ve seen the S.T.A.R.S. DC console more and it’s probably just as rare though I believe we’re produced. The gold DC was signed by a bunch of people and came in a really cool case. Edit: I just checked ebay and yes, the listing ended yesterday but to my surprise, another from Germany sold in January for 11,100 with 120 bids versus yesterday’s with 74 bids. The one from January was 4 of 5 and the one from yesterday was 2 of 5.
36:52 fun fact this version of Sonic Adventure shown here is not well documented. It has a unique title screen and emerald coast ends in the middle of the stage. Very bizarre hopefully it's found some day.
For real though... if I pre-ordered a game, it was delayed, and I received a demo for the game on the day it was supposed to release? I'd be ecstatic. Especially if that demo was a stylized storyline of why the game wasnt released yet. Thats marketing genius.
That dreamcastgallery site can be found on the internet archive as late as 2009. Do note that both contacts used by the site creator are defunct (ebay no longer lets you search by username, and business-bytes was a flash-based site from 2003 that seems to be completely gone)
If I’ve taken away something from this video, it’s that Shenmue and the Dreamcast really did share the same issue that led to their failure. Too much ambition. Everything you talked about here sounds incredible and really forward thinking, but considering Sega had so much going on the time and tons of their money and resources were being drained like a waterfall, it was all too much at once over the course of 3 short years. It’s a real shame because had it all succeeded, we could have a very different tech landscape than the one we have now.
No, it was simply due to Sony being the evil Sony they are, and putting the entire Dreamcast game library online overnight and posting links to it everywhere so nobody would buy or release Dreamcast games anymore. They did this because they were releasing PS2 soon, which ended up being even crappier than Dreamcast even though it came out 1 year after
Honestly Id love to watch a full video from you on all the weird specific extras the dreamcast had. I feel like theres such an insane amount to talk about, the box is full of secrets.
like this goes into a LOT, obviously, but I mean like the weird specific uses of the vmu and how the battery life sucked ass, how it was occasionally used as a secondary screen during games, how it encouraged people to bring their controller and save file over to a friend's house, weird online shit like the tails chao thru phantasy star, stuff like that.
I haven't even been born when Dreamcast was a thing, but I have always had the feeling that it would have been so cool if Sega actually succeed with this weird plans of the all in one console
Man, Seaman was based as hell what the heck, I’ve had the disc forever but I need the mic and that clip is what is finally going to push me over the edge into buying it.
I remember on my video game design class we had to do presentations on consoles, and 2 people got the saturn, so when they presented the saturn they started with "Hey guys today we're gonna be looking at garbage"
I miss the Dreamcast, its controller was way ahead of its time with that memory card screen, and that beautiful console startup is just... *chef's kiss*
34:37 The most interesting thing about that Regulation 7 Dreamcast is that Peter Knetter (another TH-camr I'm a fan of, if you didn’t know about him) bought one with no idea of what it was for a video called "TH-cam in Sega Dreamcast" because his old one had died, though he would get yet another one because the R7 Dreamcast couldn't play the North American web browser.
one of ur best videos to date cyber. Idk what more topics exist to dive this deep into, but Id love more videos in this style or the "what the hell are chao?" video. Super in depth stuff that leaves me feeling like I was a part of the story. Feel like a Chao/Dreamcast Special model supergenius.
I'll always wonder what happened to the Dreamcast DVD Player shown off at E3 2000 and then never again (or if the rumors that the unit shown off was just a big plastic shell were true)
Back when I was little (around the mid-late 2000's), I never heard of a Dreamcast, hell, never knew that SEGA was at one point a hardware developer. So any time I grabbed a magazine after grocery shopping, I always pondered what that swirl was, what console did it represent. A few years later I found out and I started to REALLY get into it, I was SO into it that for my 13th? birthday, all I asked was a Dreamcast, so that I could experience it myself. My parents found a person who had a Dreamcast with a Dreamcast bag and a copy of SoulCaliber in it and Toy Commander along with some other games. Years later, Dreamcast still kicks ass.
After seeing that funny ending I just had to check and make sure I’m subscribed Ok I actually really enjoyed this video a lot and learned so much about the Dreamcast, I never ever do this but I feel it’s deserved to be notified when you upload. I’m a member of the notification squad now. Excellent video! Keep up the good work!
Sega really was ahead of it's time. It's a shame it's console venture died with the dreamcast. On another note, I'm totally down if you wanna make more obscure sega lore videos! I was fascinated by the seaman lore as well as the non-gaming components.
shame that they had to fumble so much before they actually got their footing. Makes you wonder what would've been had SEGA not been so emotional back in the 90s.

i mean if you think about it its working? kinda? like more people know about minorities than ever and it seems like more effort is being put into helping them than like,, in forever. like before the internet, there werent a lot of ways to communicate with people over the world effectively, but now with the internet, you can just straight up type in a few words and learn a lot about people on the opposite side of the earth. of course there will be biases but like,,, ngl i blame most of that on corporations feeding us info that they know we'll consume **cough cough** twitter, instagram, youtube, etc etc..

Well he was right about that since we can hide our race and gender online.
Now I want, nay, NEED, a full Cybershell Seaman deep dive video. Also I love console variants but I've never actually looked very deeply into Dreamcast variations (even though I own a Dreamcast - a european one, so I guess technically it's a variant?), so this was really interesting. 40 minute Cybershell videos always hit.
He kinda cannibalized a lot of talking points in this one though.
@@enjoyerofcake2123 How wrong you are... Seaman goes deeper than you could ever imagine.
Besides, Cybershell literally said there's a lot more to talk about but he didn't because it was getting too off-topic for this video.
@Alex rousak This guy could talk about paper towels for an hour and it'd still be interesting. Just the thought of Cybershell making a 10 minutes Seaman video is mind orgasmic.
"deep dive"
Heh nice pun
even better if he does it in seaman cosplay, jenny nicholson style
The Dreamcast experience in Japan reminds me of that year when I didn't have a laptop and had to use my Wii for web browsing and TH-cam. Honestly relatively comfy. Dreamcast probably felt much the same way in 1999 with its "computer mini" aspects.
same, I'll never forget the sounds of the internet channel
What i wouldn't give to experience the dreamcast in Japan in it's hay day. Man it seems so cool and surreal to think that this console could do just so much stuff way back in 99
This was how I was with my PSP for about two years. Had no laptop, and limited access to the family PC. So for anything personal or to muck around online, I used the PSP's internet function. It was a real novelty to me, having never had a laptop and smartphones being far too expensive at the time.
@@candywing7798 i wish i had realized the wii was trying that same thing when i was a kid.
The browser was very short on features and many sites didn't load and those that did were not displayed properly. Plus if you didn't have the mouse and keyboard it was pretty difficult to navigate. It was still pretty cool to access the internet on your tv with a dreamcast even if it wasn't the best experience.
Tom from The Dreamcast Junkyard here. Great video, and thanks for the shoutout - lots of research went into everything referenced in this video so it's very decent of you to cite sources. 'Subbed' as the kids say these days :D
The mazora and the Sonic 10th Anniversary are the ones that I liked the most on the list. I've never owned a Dreamcast, but it's a very interesting console

I remember some gaming magazine sweepstakes contest where you could win the final console ever produced, signed by the entire dreamcast team, and it came with all accessories and games ever made for it. Seemed pretty cool
the "what you think itd be a gold dreamcast" leading into you saying imagine if someone actually ended a top 10 list like that had me laughing, then the cut to the gold dreamcast had me howling of laughter dude shit was gold. then the outro saying "i could really tie this together with a bow on top cohesively. so i decided not to do that. bye!" had me fucking laughing as well. good shit. you got hearty laughs out of me man
To me what's crazy about Seaman is that the voice actor of the aforementioned creature is the same as the protagonist Francis York Morgan from Deadly Premonition, and you can't stop thinking about the similarities between Seaman speaking to the player vs. York talking about movies to Zach when they are alone (and he also did E-123 Omega's voice in Shadow the Hedgehog)
that is the best piece of info I've ever learned.
Seaman is just a game from that less insane Twin Peaks that managed to get into our universe before they did.
This video includes a nearly complete oral history of the Seaman franchise, a description of a long-forgotten method of timekeeping, an explanation of the physics of iridescent materials, and a mention of a Japanese health insurance company.
And it includes some sick fucking dreamcasts
I see myself rewatching this video many times, thanks cybershell!
I swear Cybershell could take about *literally anything* & it would be entertaining.
Hey, I have the first Dreamcast you mention! I got my Sega Sports edition of the console from a flea market. It was originally selling for $20, no controller, no memory thingy, no games. I was really interested in it because I'd never encountered a black one before. One of the vendors for the table the console was on asked if I was interested. I explained I wanted the console, but didn't have anymore cash on me (it was true, pretty sure she watched me buy a pretty wall fan next-door). She asked me to wait a second since it was her son's. She went and talked to him and after a second they both came back. After looking at which console I was interested in, and looking at me, he told me I could just have it. He used to play the console every day, but after a while he didn't have time to play it anymore and long before sold off the game collection for it. He said he was just happy it was going to someone who knew what it was and seemed to really want it. I have been loving it for over a decade now myself, and it's still an active device on my entertainment center.
Cybershell is one of the few people on the internet that gets me hyped for a 40min video about the rarest form of a console I never had or played.
Edit: I want a Dreamcast now lol
dreamcast is fun!
@gn@z Dreamcast has shit copyright protection so there's no modding required. Just burn some games onto some CDR's, pop them into the console, and play. Shit you not, it's that easy. That's how I played illbleed.
@@tavenger-654 I want a dreamcast now lol
@gn@z no need for modding really unless you want HDMI output in the thing. I got a Japanese Dreamcast and my entire collection is American games on burned CDs, never ran into trouble doing that
Owned one for a short while, was pretty cool but we sold it.
Expecting a fairly straightforward and interesting video and getting pummeled with lore and tons of additional information is the classic cybershell experience
I liked that Jerma was the second popular guy that played Seaman. Two legends played it.
Who?
The AVGN.
Man. I was such a dumbass. When I was little we had 3 dreamcasts. It was my first console, and when SEGA was selling them so cheap my parents bought extras. So we had 2 brand new Dreamcasts in the box, but my dumbass opened both of them when I was like 8 or 9 because I wanted to see them and use a new one just because.
Man I could have had a valuable console. Oh well. Still got it ;3
reminds me of how I had a spare copy of '06
Man brand new dreamcasts were still selling for less than $100 on eBay as recently as 2009. Wish I could go back in time and buy them up. I was 12 at the time
When it was released it felt that everyone had a Dreamcast at least in my school so I was really surprised that it was discontinued. It didn't feel like the Saturn where I was the only one who had it.
Kids will ask their parents for whatever console all their friends have. Once a couple people buy one all their friends will want the same one.
Where I grew up everyone had a PS2 and then everyone had an Xbox 360.
I think I knew one single kid that had an original Xbox, not one person had a Dreamcast or Gamecube and when everyone moved to the Xbox 360 there were two kids in the whole town that had a PS3 instead.
I had several friends/aquintances locally with a dreamcast in a smaller town in the north east of the Netherlands.
@Stan Brule we also played a ton of MvC2 so everyone who played MvC2 got a Dreamcast at school.
That jerma clip where the seaman spills the beans on Jeremy saying he is insecure about his height will always live rent free in my head
I love these times of videos. Keep on being epic cyber man
The way he says "Number 13" Lmaooo
That was 100% intentional
Seaman was actually very known around the time it was new from what I recall, I think it was just buried and forgotten fairly quickly. But I got a free demo on an ODCM disk of it and the most popular websites were giving it plenty of coverage and it was talked about plenty on message boards at the time.
12:59 Predictive programming?(the next minute and a half or so)
My favorites are the transparent Dreamcast. I always enjoyed the Early 2000s tech design. It's surprising just how many versions of the Dreamcast are out there. Sega really wanted the console to be used by everyone.
Oh wow, as you were describing the swatch thing and the beat timing method I realized it sounded similar to what pso's timer worked under, and then you mentioned pso and I felt so vindicated.
One of those things I wondered about for years but always forgot to look up. Great video!
WAKE UP BABE CYBERSHELL UPLOADED

Cybershell videos are an event!

Babe, he's talking about Seaman!
The fake out with the first #1 and then actually abruptly ending the video was a piece of genius, nicely done.
Never realised they tried so hard to put this amazing console out there, it deserved so much better! In Europe it was gone so quickly, i was the only one of my friends that had one and rarely have heard other people talking about it. Luckily it still has a great second life now with collectors and enthusiasts.
I bought mine from a store when they took apart the demo stand it had been in, they used the Japanese version, and sold games too. I only ever had one game for it that I forget the name of now(blue something), 3rd person, fighting some weird kind of mutants or monsters. I lived in Italy at the time, I had been busy working and had no internet but I think I bought it basically when it had flopped, not sure. Brought back memories.
@@noth606blue stinger?
I have a Sega Sports Dreamcast.
Dad apparently picked it up at Best Buy in the late 90s, played Resident Evil Code Veronica, House of the Dead, and I think, like, Sonic's story in Sonic Adventure and then just kinda forgot about it for a decade or so.
I was like 5 at this point in time and he and my mom were trying to find more games for me to play on our PS2 but they ended up just finding that Dreamcast stored away so they let me play Sonic on it. No, they didn't let me play any of the other games.
This was the origin story of what sparked my Sonic autism storm.
It's really cool though, I think iirc I also still have all of the stuff that came with it, (including the other games I mentioned too) like the cool internet discs I used to mess around with when I was 11, and some of the Sega Sports games (because, well, it's a Sega Sports variant) on top of like, two of these cool demo discs that had a bunch of Dreamcast demos on them, Sonic being one of them.
The memory cards are easily the most fascinating things ever to me. Like, the Dreamcast has to be my favorite console ever. Those shits would keep me entertained for hours. It's so retardedly simple but fascinating cuz its like a literal gameboy that comes with your system and you can put chao on it and it makes you ask yourself like "why the fuck am I so horny all of the sudden?" if you get what I mean.
I even begged my dad to give me another one (was like, a transparent blue color) after buying me a copy of SA2 on it (even though I already had it on Gamecube, I just wanted it to see the differences or something I think. Idk I was like 8 or 9) just so I could have the satisfaction of transferring chao between Adventure 1 and 2 for no fucking reason other than to say I did it. It was the most proud accomplishment I had ever felt by that point, and I made sure to tell EVERYONE, including my parents, family members, teachers even, but nobody had any idea what the flying fuck I was talking about. It was like when I complained about SADX's existence after I found out about it through watching a lot of Sonic TH-cam videos and then just seeing Sonic Adventure but... DIFFERENT, and it just made me so fucking mad because it wasn't the Sonic in MY Sonic Adventure and I ALSO complained about that to everyone and they also had no idea what the fuck I was talking about. Absolutely infuriating. HOW COULD THEY?
Though think of that from the perspective of an elderly adult meeting a very young redheaded, maybe like 6 or 7 year old girl, the daughter of your friends who they hyped up so much as this creative and insightful child and you apparently are taken away by her "doll-like appearance" (I'm not shitting you that's actually what I've been told before) and you expect her to be into like, stereotypical little girl shit, try TALKING about it with her, trying to connect to her, you want to hear what this supposedly "creative and insightful" little girl has to say and then she just has an autistic fit about Sonic the Hedgehog and the SEGA Dreamcast and will ramble on about it for hours straight and you have absolutely no idea what the fuck you're listening to. Like, blue hedgehog? SEGA? Dreamcast? This is all just completely foreign to you and it sounds like an absolute fever dream. All I'm saying is never underestimate a prepubescent autistic sonic fan's ability to make you completely derealize within an hour or two. No one understands me. This is one of they everyday struggle gamers face and it's honestly devastating.
I would LOVE a more in-depth look at Seaman PS2 and Seaman 2. I’ve literally never heard of any of that stuff before this. By the way, another great video! I was just re-watching your Tails Gets Trolled video and I still love that and whatever you put out really
I really hope he makes a video about Seaman. I NEED more deep Seaman lore.
@@destroyerofworlds9860
I need more Seaman. I can’t get enough Seaman.
@@BareBandSubscription agreed
Yeah. A 40 minute Seaman epic would be what everyone wanted, even if they don’t know it yet.
27:40 The game itself IS cool. I'm not even that big of a Gundam fan and it's easily one of my Top 5 Dreamcast favorites right next to Sonic Adventure 1 & 2. It's an arena shooter fair with loadouts based on the model mech chosen, and it gives you LOTS of control over the difficulty alongside it's own auto-balancer so you can find a spot where you're having fun no matter what you choose, even if you pick a the infamous BALL.
What about Big Zam?
Yeah, what about Big Zam!
@@JamisonHingle Yes, you can play a version of Big Zam. It's kinda boring though. I see you Grumps. :p
Isn't it just the DC version of the PS2 game called Federation vs Zeon? I would love to see a new Gundam game with a campaign like FvZ that played similarly but with a larger scale than just 4 units. The sequel to that game Gundam vs Zeta Gundam is hella good too.
@FiveByFive The interface and gameplay are identical to FvZ, so I'd assume they are basically the same game (Maybe just the arcade mode only).
I prefered the campaign in FvZ over GvZ, but the variety of suits was really nice. I'd LOVE a full Universal Century version, especially with some suits from other timelines added in and some GvZ style what-if timelines too.
While Gundam Crossfire was awful, it was the fun kind of awful. Something like that but large scale and actually finished would be awesome. I've also been dreaming of a Star wars Battlefront 2 (The real one) kind of game with the various classes being the various mobile suits.
I've actually seen a car with that type of chroma paint in real life that was parked around the place that I was having a jog during the summer, and I gotta say, that was one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my life. You have to physically see it for yourself to get the full picture but the car would completely change colors from purple to green depending on what angle I was looking at it from. So yeah, 10/10 paintjob would look at again
I actually worked with Nippon and even maziora paint when I first started tinkering with guitars in the early 2000s.
A longtime colleague and friend is one of the most prolific finishing experts.... known the world over for his work with musical instruments.
I've seen and work with all kinds of crazy stuff thanks to the access and NeverEnding assortments of things he works with and is exposed to. Also run across all kinds of weird and interesting things like that at The NAMM show every year.
I have always focused predominantly on vintage reproduction instruments because that's what appealed to me most. I mean I still do work with electric guitars and things but usually they're more of your classic timeless and famous designs. A good 90% of my orders consisted of vintage reproductions and things like that.
And I was always a few years behind on orders... And at least for me personally it work best if I only took orders for designs that I appreciated or was interested in exploring.
But every now and then something different would come along that sounded interesting and appealing enough that I would take the job. And that's predominantly when I worked with new and interesting materials and finishes.
13:25 Was not prepared for this prophecy.
I LOVE when Cybershell goes deep into the most obscure videogame related stuff, I sincerely wouldn't mind if he just talked about games noone heard about just in general
Fr lil bro
not a single other channel's uploads get me as excited as these. redlettermedia is close but its so consistent i can sort of take it for granted. every cybershell upload is a blessing. i hope you dont trick yourself into thinking you dont have enough to say about seaman to make a whole video about it after this, i would love to hear you point out random shit about it that i already know
Haven't even watched it but considering it combines the two most coolest things ever (Cybershell + Dreamcast) it's already a masterpiece of a video.
I remembered seeing your video and just by chance, a real Gold Dreamcast was listed on ebay and it was numbered of 5. The listing ended yesterday I believe and it sold for 10,300.00. It was being sold out of Germany. I never heard of it before your video and this may be the only time I ever see one. I’ve seen the S.T.A.R.S. DC console more and it’s probably just as rare though I believe we’re produced. The gold DC was signed by a bunch of people and came in a really cool case.
Edit: I just checked ebay and yes, the listing ended yesterday but to my surprise, another from Germany sold in January for 11,100 with 120 bids versus yesterday’s with 74 bids. The one from January was 4 of 5 and the one from yesterday was 2 of 5.
video title: The Rarest Dreamcast
video content: seaman history occasionally interrupted by dreamcast commercials
Why yes, I would love to watch a 40 minute video about a console that was discontinued 20 years ago
I find it wholesome that you were about to put your dreamcast as number 1 even as a joke. Nostalgia and memories with a console is priceless.
36:52 fun fact this version of Sonic Adventure shown here is not well documented.
It has a unique title screen and emerald coast ends in the middle of the stage. Very bizarre hopefully it's found some day.
For real though... if I pre-ordered a game, it was delayed, and I received a demo for the game on the day it was supposed to release? I'd be ecstatic. Especially if that demo was a stylized storyline of why the game wasnt released yet.
Thats marketing genius.
y'know considering your level of fame, I think your autographed dreamcast might actually count.
That dreamcastgallery site can be found on the internet archive as late as 2009. Do note that both contacts used by the site creator are defunct (ebay no longer lets you search by username, and business-bytes was a flash-based site from 2003 that seems to be completely gone)
14:34 I'm so sorry Seaman. We have all most certainly let you down in that regard
If I’ve taken away something from this video, it’s that Shenmue and the Dreamcast really did share the same issue that led to their failure. Too much ambition.
Everything you talked about here sounds incredible and really forward thinking, but considering Sega had so much going on the time and tons of their money and resources were being drained like a waterfall, it was all too much at once over the course of 3 short years. It’s a real shame because had it all succeeded, we could have a very different tech landscape than the one we have now.
No, it was simply due to Sony being the evil Sony they are, and putting the entire Dreamcast game library online overnight and posting links to it everywhere so nobody would buy or release Dreamcast games anymore. They did this because they were releasing PS2 soon, which ended up being even crappier than Dreamcast even though it came out 1 year after
I would gladly watch an entire video about CyberShell talking about Seaman.
Honestly Id love to watch a full video from you on all the weird specific extras the dreamcast had. I feel like theres such an insane amount to talk about, the box is full of secrets.
like this goes into a LOT, obviously, but I mean like the weird specific uses of the vmu and how the battery life sucked ass, how it was occasionally used as a secondary screen during games, how it encouraged people to bring their controller and save file over to a friend's house, weird online shit like the tails chao thru phantasy star, stuff like that.
to be fair, if cybershell described paint drying, i would watch it
[edit:] 25:25 nevermind, i watched him describing paint dry 😁
Not even one second in and I can already tell this is gonna be another banger cybershell video. 😎
Can officially confirm, this is a banger video
Man the Dreamcast era was such a retro-futuristic fever dream
I haven't even been born when Dreamcast was a thing, but I have always had the feeling that it would have been so cool if Sega actually succeed with this weird plans of the all in one console
Crazy that this video is 2 years old! For me it feels like time has just flown by
Man, Seaman was based as hell what the heck, I’ve had the disc forever but I need the mic and that clip is what is finally going to push me over the edge into buying it.
Cybershell can realise video "Talking nonsense for ten hours" and I'd still watch it
I remember on my video game design class we had to do presentations on consoles, and 2 people got the saturn, so when they presented the saturn they started with "Hey guys today we're gonna be looking at garbage"
Did you ridicule them and show them Sonic R, blowing their minds and making it their favorite game of all time?
I stumbled across the Christmas Seaman Dreamcast a couple years ago. I had no idea how crazy the story behind it was!
I miss the Dreamcast, its controller was way ahead of its time with that memory card screen, and that beautiful console startup is just... *chef's kiss*
I learned more about Seaman than Dreamcast.
now my girl wont stop asking me to buy her a Hello Kitty Dreamcast cool thanks
Video about rare game console
25 minutes in: _"A peacock's feathers is actually pigmented brown, the microscopic structure of its surface-"_
34:37 The most interesting thing about that Regulation 7 Dreamcast is that Peter Knetter (another TH-camr I'm a fan of, if you didn’t know about him) bought one with no idea of what it was for a video called "TH-cam in Sega Dreamcast" because his old one had died, though he would get yet another one because the R7 Dreamcast couldn't play the North American web browser.
aw nice that brought me down a bit of memory lane when that was one of the first videos i watcihed when i was getting into him
one of ur best videos to date cyber. Idk what more topics exist to dive this deep into, but Id love more videos in this style or the "what the hell are chao?" video. Super in depth stuff that leaves me feeling like I was a part of the story. Feel like a Chao/Dreamcast Special model supergenius.
I'll always wonder what happened to the Dreamcast DVD Player shown off at E3 2000 and then never again (or if the rumors that the unit shown off was just a big plastic shell were true)
CyberShell returns?!? WITH A 40 MINUTE VIDEO?!? It was worth the wait!
when's the "there's nothing offensive about genocide" bonus video
The Gundam Versus series is actually still going is the crazy thing, they just put out a new game in arcades.
There is no way this video is already a year old...
Finally a reason to keep going
yo I just watched your video, it was good.
Good to see you here
I love seaman a lot. We need a 7 hour long dissection of every piece of seaman media ever made.
The rarest dreamcast is the one my dog defecated onto. There is only one. And not even I have it anymore.
Are you going to make a video about Sonic Triple Trouble 16-bit?
Golden Dreamcast that only 5 exist? You mean that thing my grandma got sitting out in a storage shed?
Back when I was little (around the mid-late 2000's), I never heard of a Dreamcast, hell, never knew that SEGA was at one point a hardware developer. So any time I grabbed a magazine after grocery shopping, I always pondered what that swirl was, what console did it represent. A few years later I found out and I started to REALLY get into it, I was SO into it that for my 13th? birthday, all I asked was a Dreamcast, so that I could experience it myself. My parents found a person who had a Dreamcast with a Dreamcast bag and a copy of SoulCaliber in it and Toy Commander along with some other games.
Years later, Dreamcast still kicks ass.
My cousin in law had a Dreamcast, and he absolutely worshipped Sonic Adventure
i know i do, ever since launch day.
I still worship SA1
After seeing that funny ending I just had to check and make sure I’m subscribed
Ok I actually really enjoyed this video a lot and learned so much about the Dreamcast, I never ever do this but I feel it’s deserved to be notified when you upload. I’m a member of the notification squad now. Excellent video! Keep up the good work!
This has turned into one of my favorite comfort videos, your fkng hilarious man plz keep making videos forever
Sega really was ahead of it's time. It's a shame it's console venture died with the dreamcast. On another note, I'm totally down if you wanna make more obscure sega lore videos! I was fascinated by the seaman lore as well as the non-gaming components.
shame that they had to fumble so much before they actually got their footing. Makes you wonder what would've been had SEGA not been so emotional back in the 90s.
@@DanielFerreira-ez8qd emotional?
The dreamcast was incredible. Even just as a gaming console it had so many interesting features which nobody has really touched on since.
That seaman monologue is surprisingly accurate to our generation
Ye, Sega somehow got this philosophical with this game...

Amazing video, loved the ending. You should probably do a whole vid on Seaman yknow.
