I was living deep in the jungles of South America during the Dreamcast’s launch and so didn’t get a chance to play or even hear about it until years later. It’s a great system and it’s unfortunate it didn’t do better commercially. I wish Sega had figured out a way to stay in the console business.

Typical Sony behavior, really. And while it may be true that it was sold at a loss for them, there's something incredibly admirable about a company not gouging every nickle and dime from the user, and allowing an incredible amount of people to access their great product.
@@tynao2029 That makes absolutely no sense. The Dreamcast has one of the highest attach and tie ratios, which means piracy has almost no impact on its failure.

Dreamcast had so many great arcade games, I loved playing 'House of the Dead 2', 'Sega Bass Fishing' (with the fishing line controller), 'Crazy Taxi' etc. That system was also kind of my introduction to RPGs with 'Shenmue 1&2', still among my favourite games.
Awesome Collection Man! Great Looking Other Dreamcasts Aswell And The Dreamcasts Is Truly A Underrated Console Had Great Launch Titles And Just Such A Great Console!
The Dreamcast was one of my favorite systems back in the day, Zombie Revenge, Dynamite Cop, MvC2, Blue Stinger, Carrier and the list goes on..! Great video, Metal Jesus Rocks!
The PS2, SNES, and DC are my top 3 greatest consoles ever with the greatest libraries. I got PS1 at 4th. Genesis and NES at 5th and 6th. I just play DC games on my phone these days. Redream rocks.
We have played typing of the dead while hosting our last 3 parties. An absolute hit. A super competitive game even for those who aren't gamers! Totally worth picking up a copy and a dreamcast keyboard.

Metal Jesus. It has been an honor to view your videos and witness your appreciation for video games. My question is how come there is no love or mention of Rez. That is probably the #1 Dreamcast game I could never turn down playing. That game has to be in your list above all others. Ultimately, The design was ahead of its time. I think you would agree.
I remember loving that game back in the day! I'm a bit hesitant to go back to it now though as I'm not sure how well it'd hold up and I kinda don't want my good memories of it to be ruined.
Out of all of Sega's failures, the Dreamcast is one that really hits home. What a fantastic system! Can you imagine being a Sega developer at the time? What team at Sega ultimately held the responsibility for putting new consoles out there without enough content to support the launch? To me, it's what led to their demise in the console market space.
Not really as you can see there were plenty of games made and like 95% of them were excellent, unlike most systems that can go 50/50 or less in an entire collection with playability/quality. The Sony Playstation was the huge problem as it was only 1 year away and played DVD's where DC did not(A huge oversight on SEGA). People waited for it instead because of that feature. Look at ANY launch of Sony consoles and a huge portion of sales were not to gamers but to regular consumers who just to play DVD/Blu-ray movies since the consumer grade standalone players cost more than the Sony and could not play games. There are several other levels to Sega's failure the bigger ones were not having enough consoles to keep up with demand, a problem with every big console launch it seems, so people went and bought something else that was available for Christmas presents instead of a DC. Then Sega dropped the machine altogether instead of persevering and coming out with a new improved model, when Sony launched, that could play DVD's and an upgrade option for current owners at a minimal price. If they stuck it out I think it would have been a Sony killer if not just true contender that would be around today. The more I read on SEGA & DC the more problems I learn of they created like investing in Arcade Parlors around the country eating up resources(that could have been used to make more consoles available at launch).
MetalJesus here to showcase my favorite system and collection of all time. I appreciate you doing this for the Dreamcast community and yourself included. Huge fan of yours. Hope to meet you one day to talk and play the classic games especially Dreamcast. Stay healthy, stay safe.
One of the coolest future style approaches to any console gen’s. The cases for these games are truly art, it’s cool seeing any still holding up today in good condition
I've been going through all my favourite Dreamcast games lately and making short gameplay videos on them. Love the system! Absolute favourite console growing up. Glad to see other Dreamcast fans out there still.
WOW, I just had a huge rush of nostalgia from seeing MDK2. That's a game I remember playing as a kid and could never beat it, I haven't thought about that game since I was like 6 years old I forgot it even existed. Now I really need to play that!
The game does have some intringuing puzzles when you play with the doctor I think...or maybe the dog...I can't really remember. The game is very underrated in my opinion. A true hidden gem on the Dreamcast and PC.
after 20+ years... still can't beat the last boss. just made it past level 8 a couple years ago! put a tiny piece of tape in the middle of your TV screen to help aim your toast. DELICIOUS!
This was my first experience with video games as a child. It’s what captured me for gaming. Me and my dad would play and he would do the hard parts of games lol. This video really brings me deep deep joy.
@@MetalJesusRocks Metal Jesus ,you do realize that Rock legend David Bowie had direct involvement in the creation of Omicron the nomad soul ,a real big deal at the time it came out,very strange you didn't mention that ,,,but you did mention KISS so what gives MJR ???
Jesus! I love how to describe and narrate your games! So awesome! Would you consider do a “Why i think this game is great” type of videos and go in depth of your favourite ones? I would love to see it on your channel
Thanks so much for your kind worlds about Flea and Im glad to see that you enjoyed the Tapeworm demo too :) Il be sure to send over a full version when they are ready.
Super Magnetic Neo! One of my favorite Dreamcast games and the most challenging platformer I’ve ever played! Beautiful graphics and whimsical soundtrack.
I bought this thing for Rayman 2. Absolutely stunning and awesome game, and the Dreamcast port is by far the best version. Speaking of Rayman, I want Rayman 4!
LOVE Cannon Spike (and a bunch of other you mentioned). I have had my Cannon Spike since the day it came out and I unwrapped it myself! My sons (whom are both adults now) used to play that game with me all the time- in turn of course. One of my faves was Sega Marine Fishing. That game was a blast too! Good times.
Hey MJR you must have read my mind lol. I was just thinking yesterday I wish Jason from Metal Jesus Rocks would do an updated Dreamcast video. I log in and boom here it is! Thanks Jason for all the hard work you put in your videos.
Damn was hoping you’d talk about Tokyo Xtreme Racing. Was one of my favorite racing games and favorite on the system. I never hear anyone talk about it.
I am the only one who thinks Retro game TH-camrs are running out of content. These "here is my collection videos" seem to saying that I can't think of anything to do so I'll do some shots of boxes and make a video of them. They all just follow each other. LGR is the only one doing interesting videos these days. The pickups with Reggie are still fun but most of the time its just here's my stuff and here is a review of some free stuff I got sent.
Idk I feel like a lot of people wanted the system when I was a kid, but Sega killed it off before it could gain steam. I know I wanted one but my parents wouldn’t buy it because they heard it was discontinued.
MetalJesus I have never saw something and went to ebay to buy as fast I did when I saw the limited battle crust game .... love the video! keep bring us Dreamcast news and updates!
recently purchased a CIB dreamcast for a steal of a deal.... never owned one as a kid but looks like I have a new system to collect for. looking forward to it. thanks for the great recommendations MJR . keep up the great work man
Another fantastic DC game was Heavy METAL Geomatrix - great arena style game play and fantastic licensed soundtrack (and yes it relates to the Movies) Also Tech Romancer is very good. It's like war of the monsters but with Gundam-ish mechs!
I've never really had any old game consoles besides PS2, so I don't know a lot about older games. Dreamcast just seems to have such pretty games, I love the graphics of most of these you've showed in the video.
Sega Dreamcast is no longer the best graphics console it also doesn’t play movies it can’t play import games as the PS3 PS4 xbox one I remember I put a mod chip in my own Dreamcast it played import games for a few months then stopped playing games it broke I learned my lesson never to do that again the game pass right now is the winner can’t believe I’m playing the newest releases on day one without paying $60-$70 I won’t be playing on my PS5 until they get Spider-Man 2
Yes sir !!! I just got a sport edition off eBay for not that much , and the games I had when I was in high school , Dreamcast was a true next gen experience … love it so much

see another reason why I love yor channel man, I personally didn't own a Dreamcast growing up but I did know about it n some of their games n now have a Dreamcast in my game collection and thanks for showing n introducing sum Dreamcast games I never knew about
A game that I played a lot when I was a kid was Coaster Works. You essentially have to blueprint a rollercoaster which is radical enough for the audience but won't murder them with G-force at the same time. Then you get to see your rollercoaster in action in first person. It's pretty cool.
haha! Nice video. The dreamcast did feel special, it was this charming system. Great List, I was a fighting game fan and it was nice having some good ports without importing. Around that time, the PS1 had no RAM for character swap on Xmen Vs Street Fighter, so we had to import the Sega Saturn because of the ram expansion. That was early Ebay, so those games would run up around 140 to 170, and these ports were released around the same time the game was out at arcades. So in other words great for training for tournaments. The dreamcast was the Naomi board, so all of the Capcom ports were perfect, surprised Virtua Fighter 3 TB wasn't exactly like the arcade, and SNK's output was actually interesting. Nice bonuses on there end. Surprised Last Blade 2 got an USA Release, that's actually an under rated gem of game, easy to play, nice style to it, not exactly Samurai Showdown or Soul Calibur. This interesting period of Samurai action. Also Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is an amazing CPS3 arcade game, which a fighting game with a story mode fallows the manga, and it's not bad. Had a USA release also. I mean I did import a few games, but even with a short life span, a lot of games did come to USA. Again cool video
@@saadhasan2518 Last Blade is under rated, especially since MvC and Guilty Gear went with crazy chain link combos, Sam Show went with power moves, and soul calibur had the 3d tech. So you got Last Blade which was more like SF Alpha when SF3 was still in the tourney scene, nice comfy combat with counter and super moves. Plus the period was different than Sam Show and Soul Calibur that it stood out.
@@crithon yeah the setting was great and the characters were really memorable and the overall gameplay is awesome especially with the custom combos in speed mode
I got a Dreamcast as a High School graduation gift in 2000....it was my FIRST non-Nintendo console. Soul Caliber and Marvel Vs Capcom 2 were two of my favorite games of all time
I had a lot of fun playing Hydro Thunder, Ready to Rumble and Virtua Tennis. I never had a ton of patience playing careers in games but Virtua tennis had me hooked. That's also where I started playing Rayman and have lived those games since. NBA2k and NFL2k games were great too!
I'm drunk and I just watched you say "Hey guys Metal Jesus here" at least 20 times. You should do a video of everytime you've said "Hey guys Metal Jesus here"
I really look forward to Friday. I watch your videos on my break or lunch. It depends how busy it is. I, especially, love the collection videos. Sometimes I rewatch the buying guides and pickup videos. Helps me through my day. So, I'd like to say thank you MJ. You rock. 🤘🤓
I bought Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, Seaman, Sword of The Berserk, Marvel vs Capcom 2 and about 50 others brand new when this system was still out. I had so many friends that wouldn't even look at the Dreamcast as they were waiting on the Playstation 2. I have no regrets about any of my video game purchases, especially the Dreamcast.
Big hitter with the Border Down - great game, one of my faves. And utterly bizarrely set in my home town of Sheffield! Your video has just inspired me to fire up Mars Matrix for an hour too.
If you can get a hold of Trickstyle it is an excellent addition to your collection. I put the most hours into that game than any other dream cast game back in the day and there really isn't very much like it. So glad to see Jet Grind Radio in your mix!! Keep on rocking dude!
The Dreamcast holds up so well. So many classics on this console. Shame I never got a chance to own this device. Worth looking for one now. Excellent video.
I'm glad you mentioned quite a few under rated titles including Floigan Bros and Ms.Pacman. The Dreamcast has tons of hidden jems and I'd argue one of the most underrated and forgotten hidden gems was Toy Commander. Its one of the best Dreamcast exclusives I loved as a kid.
God bless you! dreamcast games are expensive i regret not buying them back when they were cheap. i remember some of these games back in the day that go for only $10 and those same games now cost over $100-$200!
Dreamcast to me was a dream to own when I first got mine back in 1999. It was probably my first console that I had a deep profound love for. And I'm happy to still own one today that still works perfectly 😊. Great console very under-rated.
My Dreamcast has actually been away the past few weeks for repairs. Hopefully I'll get it back soon cause this video has gotten me in the mood for more Dreamcast.
This was my first real console. I had a Sega Genesis but so many great memories playing Dreamcast. A guy that worked for my dad had what was called a Moose Disc which allowed him to have any game out on the console. Good times.
That's the Utopia boot cd. The early pirate games needed that to boot. Poor people like myself used that a lot. Word of advice. Don't use it or any cd-rom games. The laser of the console will go crazy trying to read those and trust me, it will break your laser system. Avoid that at all cost!
I just bought a emulating machine that plays Dreamcast. Cant wait to get back into the games. Had four Dreamcasts in my life. They last a few months each. Almost like their meant to break. But the games they made are amazing!
Hey Metal. I love Sega. The Dreamcast is a great console. I wish Sega would remaster some of their arcade stuff. It's unreal how many great arcade games they made. They're sitting on a gold mine. Great video as usual. Rock on and game on
I have old Next Generation issues in PDF form. Issues from 1995-1999. Next Gen hyped the Dreamcast a lot. Those were my high school years. So DC still feels fresh in my mind.
I always love it when you give the Dreamcast its props MJR my dude 👍 I got mine on 9/9/99 and still play it proudly to this day! I'm near a complete NA set as well only 7 more games! I'm not just collecting every game but attempting to complete them as well and have stumbled on (in my opinion) many hidden and affordable gems Keep up the quality content and never loose that infectious passion you have for gaming homie!
Toy Commander was my first Dreamcast game purchase. In that game you are the little boy with his overcharged imagination. He is dreaming of ways to rescue and defeat his other toys that have gone rogue. I never defeated it, but I played the heck out of it. I pay have to revisit that one really soon... maybe make a TH-cam video of my triumphs (or probably my defeat). The Dreamcast is long overdue for a proper resurrection. Sega could CASH IN BIG if they released a Dreamcast Resurrected system. There is an audience with money to throw at them. They could allow the passionate home brew/indie community to become larger players in the new Sega Dreamcast era! What a great pipe dream huh?
Seems like a fair amount of og TH-camrs have kinda fallen off the last year or so or switched up their content quite a bit for whatever reasons but its really nice to continue to get uploads from you, and they are as good of quality and as fun as ever.

The more I read on SEGA & DC the more problems I learn of they created like investing in Arcade Parlors around the country eating up resources(that could have been used to make more consoles available at launch).
MetalJesus here to showcase my favorite system and collection of all time. I appreciate you doing this for the Dreamcast community and yourself included. Huge fan of yours. Hope to meet you one day to talk and play the classic games especially Dreamcast. Stay healthy, stay safe.
You have Skies of Arcadia, therefore you are a good man. Simple as that.
One of the coolest future style approaches to any console gen’s. The cases for these games are truly art, it’s cool seeing any still holding up today in good condition
I think you're the only TH-camr left who makes Hidden gem classic console contents. More power to you.
I've been going through all my favourite Dreamcast games lately and making short gameplay videos on them. Love the system! Absolute favourite console growing up. Glad to see other Dreamcast fans out there still.
WOW, I just had a huge rush of nostalgia from seeing MDK2. That's a game I remember playing as a kid and could never beat it, I haven't thought about that game since I was like 6 years old I forgot it even existed. Now I really need to play that!
The game does have some intringuing puzzles when you play with the doctor I think...or maybe the dog...I can't really remember. The game is very underrated in my opinion. A true hidden gem on the Dreamcast and PC.
after 20+ years... still can't beat the last boss. just made it past level 8 a couple years ago! put a tiny piece of tape in the middle of your TV screen to help aim your toast. DELICIOUS!
This was my first experience with video games as a child. It’s what captured me for gaming. Me and my dad would play and he would do the hard parts of games lol. This video really brings me deep deep joy.
It’s always a great Friday when a new MJR video shows up!
You're the best!
Yup And Especially If It's A Collection Video But Still It's Always Good :)
@@MetalJesusRocks Metal Jesus ,you do realize that Rock legend David Bowie had direct involvement in the creation of Omicron the nomad soul ,a real big deal at the time it came out,very strange you didn't mention that ,,,but you did mention KISS so what gives MJR ???
Jesus! I love how to describe and narrate your games! So awesome! Would you consider do a “Why i think this game is great” type of videos and go in depth of your favourite ones? I would love to see it on your channel
One of the best consoles ever made
Thanks so much for your kind worlds about Flea and Im glad to see that you enjoyed the Tapeworm demo too :) Il be sure to send over a full version when they are ready.
Sega brought the arcade experience home. I regret selling mine when I was a kid.
It really did feel like a little arcade machine
Super Magnetic Neo! One of my favorite Dreamcast games and the most challenging platformer I’ve ever played! Beautiful graphics and whimsical soundtrack.
I still make time to play Crazy Taxi weekly on the dreamcast. im not a fan of the soundtrack on the 360 version
My gf and I been playing High Roller (Crazy Taxi III). Damn that is ridiculously addictive!
I remember when I first booted up Crazy Taxi on the 360 waiting for the Offspring to kick in... Here was my response...
😆😲🤨☹😑
Ya ya ya ya ya
And they took out the kfcs, burger kings and pizza huts which was so awesome
Your collection is Amazon man ❤ wow
Dreamcast was my very first console, such a great memories.
I bought this thing for Rayman 2. Absolutely stunning and awesome game, and the Dreamcast port is by far the best version. Speaking of Rayman, I want Rayman 4!
I Might Check Out Rayman I Might Even Get Rayman Legends For The Switch Ik There's A Port
I love it on N64. Got it as a kid, but still haven't finished it despite having the strategy guide. Game is hard as hell.
I played Rayman back in the 90s ps1 beautiful game.
@@vinnysproductionsinc66 Rayman Legends is good fun!
@@Benobot99 The game really isn't that difficult now. I also had serious trouble as a kid. The only hard part is the final boss.
LOVE Cannon Spike (and a bunch of other you mentioned). I have had my Cannon Spike since the day it came out and I unwrapped it myself! My sons (whom are both adults now) used to play that game with me all the time- in turn of course. One of my faves was Sega Marine Fishing. That game was a blast too! Good times.
So many great ones. The Power Stone games obviously. They seriously need a sequel or switch port.
Hey MJR you must have read my mind lol. I was just thinking yesterday I wish Jason from Metal Jesus Rocks would do an updated Dreamcast video. I log in and boom here it is! Thanks Jason for all the hard work you put in your videos.
Damn was hoping you’d talk about Tokyo Xtreme Racing. Was one of my favorite racing games and favorite on the system. I never hear anyone talk about it.
Yes! Great game
Your first Dreamcast video (years ago) was the first video of yours I watched and caused me to sub. Love this sytem!
The Legend will never die!
I am the only one who thinks Retro game TH-camrs are running out of content. These "here is my collection videos" seem to saying that I can't think of anything to do so I'll do some shots of boxes and make a video of them. They all just follow each other. LGR is the only one doing interesting videos these days.
The pickups with Reggie are still fun but most of the time its just here's my stuff and here is a review of some free stuff I got sent.
The Dreamcast was ahead of its time and one of the greatest systems ever made. A pity most people didn't give it a chance at the time
Idk I feel like a lot of people wanted the system when I was a kid, but Sega killed it off before it could gain steam. I know I wanted one but my parents wouldn’t buy it because they heard it was discontinued.
MetalJesus I have never saw something and went to ebay to buy as fast I did when I saw the limited battle crust game .... love the video! keep bring us Dreamcast news and updates!
Dreamcast had the best library.
recently purchased a CIB dreamcast for a steal of a deal.... never owned one as a kid but looks like I have a new system to collect for. looking forward to it. thanks for the great recommendations MJR . keep up the great work man
Another fantastic DC game was Heavy METAL Geomatrix - great arena style game play and fantastic licensed soundtrack (and yes it relates to the Movies)
Also Tech Romancer is very good.
It's like war of the monsters but with Gundam-ish mechs!
I've never really had any old game consoles besides PS2, so I don't know a lot about older games. Dreamcast just seems to have such pretty games, I love the graphics of most of these you've showed in the video.
Sega Dreamcast is no longer the best graphics console it also doesn’t play movies it can’t play import games as the PS3 PS4 xbox one I remember I put a mod chip in my own Dreamcast it played import games for a few months then stopped playing games it broke I learned my lesson never to do that again the game pass right now is the winner can’t believe I’m playing the newest releases on day one without paying $60-$70 I won’t be playing on my PS5 until they get Spider-Man 2
LOL you good, man?

Yes sir !!! I just got a sport edition off eBay for not that much , and the games I had when I was in high school , Dreamcast was a true next gen experience … love it so much
You sure you need all those? You're not a good person. You should be donating that stuff to a children's hospital. You're an adult.
Dude I just found this reply ,,fell out of chair laughs ,I'm not sure if MJR is savvy proper to get your joke ,,that's killer dude ,,on a retro game collecting channel no less ,,hee hee hee ,if you get the chance checkout Captain Frugal's channel ,,, sometimes it's Fun ,,😋🤪👍
Lmfao 🤣😆😆🤣
@@wyldelf2685 He's a scam. He feeds off the uninformed. Notice no matter what his video is he always needs money. He's worse than the church. If he really needed money he would sell some games that people donated. He wants to keep those though. He prefers cash.
@@wyldelf2685 I'll check out the captain. Thanks. I'll comment on his channel.
@@johnnycigar2061 it seems like companies send him products for free in hopes of a good review ,,a gaming TH-camr that gets 3000 views on average or more tends to get noticed by these product companies ,,then TH-cam notices and starts putting higher caliber adverts on their videos ,,some TH-camrs will constantly beg that you hit their Patreon (donate to them ) or the can't make a phone podcast ?? after time some of it gets crazy ,,,I simply enjoy it for content , conversation and a little networking ,, if something I find out can help someone that's great too ,, remember main purpose of TH-cam is entertainment and info ,,sometimes MJR has cool content and other times it's a "Look at all MY wonderful stuff"type of thing ,, TH-cam is supposed to be Fun ,not therapy ,,,👍
see another reason why I love yor channel man, I personally didn't own a Dreamcast growing up but I did know about it n some of their games n now have a Dreamcast in my game collection and thanks for showing n introducing sum Dreamcast games I never knew about
Metal Jesus + Dreamcast: Best in-flight entertainment on a flight home. Subscribed!
A game that I played a lot when I was a kid was Coaster Works. You essentially have to blueprint a rollercoaster which is radical enough for the audience but won't murder them with G-force at the same time. Then you get to see your rollercoaster in action in first person. It's pretty cool.
haha! Nice video. The dreamcast did feel special, it was this charming system.
Great List, I was a fighting game fan and it was nice having some good ports without importing. Around that time, the PS1 had no RAM for character swap on Xmen Vs Street Fighter, so we had to import the Sega Saturn because of the ram expansion. That was early Ebay, so those games would run up around 140 to 170, and these ports were released around the same time the game was out at arcades. So in other words great for training for tournaments.
The dreamcast was the Naomi board, so all of the Capcom ports were perfect, surprised Virtua Fighter 3 TB wasn't exactly like the arcade, and SNK's output was actually interesting. Nice bonuses on there end. Surprised Last Blade 2 got an USA Release, that's actually an under rated gem of game, easy to play, nice style to it, not exactly Samurai Showdown or Soul Calibur. This interesting period of Samurai action. Also Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is an amazing CPS3 arcade game, which a fighting game with a story mode fallows the manga, and it's not bad. Had a USA release also.
I mean I did import a few games, but even with a short life span, a lot of games did come to USA.
Again cool video
Garou MOTW was also an amazing port alongside CvS2 and Kof 2000
Last Blade 2 is a really great game.
@@saadhasan2518 Last Blade is under rated, especially since MvC and Guilty Gear went with crazy chain link combos, Sam Show went with power moves, and soul calibur had the 3d tech. So you got Last Blade which was more like SF Alpha when SF3 was still in the tourney scene, nice comfy combat with counter and super moves. Plus the period was different than Sam Show and Soul Calibur that it stood out.
@@crithon yeah the setting was great and the characters were really memorable and the overall gameplay is awesome especially with the custom combos in speed mode
I got a Dreamcast as a High School graduation gift in 2000....it was my FIRST non-Nintendo console. Soul Caliber and Marvel Vs Capcom 2 were two of my favorite games of all time
SO HAPPY to see Dreamcast content! One of my favorite consoles ever. Awesome video!
My best friend in grade school Jullian got dreamcast from Costco I think, along with one vmu. Sonic & the vmu's BLEW my mind!!
I had a lot of fun playing Hydro Thunder, Ready to Rumble and Virtua Tennis. I never had a ton of patience playing careers in games but Virtua tennis had me hooked. That's also where I started playing Rayman and have lived those games since. NBA2k and NFL2k games were great too!
Every year around 9-9 I try to set some time to play the Dreamcast.
This is the first year I have the opportunity to do it with an ODE installed.
I'm drunk and I just watched you say "Hey guys Metal Jesus here" at least 20 times.
You should do a video of everytime you've said "Hey guys Metal Jesus here"
I really look forward to Friday. I watch your videos on my break or lunch. It depends how busy it is. I, especially, love the collection videos. Sometimes I rewatch the buying guides and pickup videos. Helps me through my day. So, I'd like to say thank you MJ. You rock. 🤘🤓
Thanks for sharing this jesus! I never owned a dreamcast but it always intrigued me so much. Such a cool console
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@MetalJesusRocks keep up the great work buddy :)
I bought Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, Seaman, Sword of The Berserk, Marvel vs Capcom 2 and about 50 others brand new when this system was still out. I had so many friends that wouldn't even look at the Dreamcast as they were waiting on the Playstation 2. I have no regrets about any of my video game purchases, especially the Dreamcast.
If you want to be truly blown away by the DC & how good it can look today, you have to see it @ 4K sourced from VGA.. AMAZING.
Big hitter with the Border Down - great game, one of my faves. And utterly bizarrely set in my home town of Sheffield!
Your video has just inspired me to fire up Mars Matrix for an hour too.
If you can get a hold of Trickstyle it is an excellent addition to your collection. I put the most hours into that game than any other dream cast game back in the day and there really isn't very much like it. So glad to see Jet Grind Radio in your mix!! Keep on rocking dude!
The Dreamcast holds up so well. So many classics on this console. Shame I never got a chance to own this device. Worth looking for one now. Excellent video.
I'm glad you mentioned quite a few under rated titles including Floigan Bros and Ms.Pacman. The Dreamcast has tons of hidden jems and I'd argue one of the most underrated and forgotten hidden gems was Toy Commander. Its one of the best Dreamcast exclusives I loved as a kid.
God bless you! dreamcast games are expensive i regret not buying them back when they were cheap. i remember some of these games back in the day that go for only $10 and those same games now cost over $100-$200!
Dreamcast to me was a dream to own when I first got mine back in 1999. It was probably my first console that I had a deep profound love for. And I'm happy to still own one today that still works perfectly 😊. Great console very under-rated.
My Dreamcast has actually been away the past few weeks for repairs. Hopefully I'll get it back soon cause this video has gotten me in the mood for more Dreamcast.
This was my first real console. I had a Sega Genesis but so many great memories playing Dreamcast. A guy that worked for my dad had what was called a Moose Disc which allowed him to have any game out on the console. Good times.
That's the Utopia boot cd. The early pirate games needed that to boot. Poor people like myself used that a lot. Word of advice. Don't use it or any cd-rom games. The laser of the console will go crazy trying to read those and trust me, it will break your laser system. Avoid that at all cost!
i am so thrilled you added MSR to this.. a game far ahead of its time. a pioneer
You missed the best flight sim for Dreamcast: Air Force Delta. You need to check that out.
I just bought a emulating machine that plays Dreamcast. Cant wait to get back into the games. Had four Dreamcasts in my life. They last a few months each. Almost like their meant to break. But the games they made are amazing!
Just found this channel. You are awesome man. Recently been on a dc collecting phase. Great collection you have my man.
Crazy Taxi is an awesome 5 minute blast.
Always hyped for a new MJR video, and on my birthday too?! Glad to learn so much more about a console I grew up seeing at my friend’s houses
Happy birthday!
Hey Metal. I love Sega. The Dreamcast is a great console. I wish Sega would remaster some of their arcade stuff. It's unreal how many great arcade games they made. They're sitting on a gold mine. Great video as usual. Rock on and game on
Wooowwww i just started thinking maybe i should get a dreamcast, and then you put out this video!!! You are awesome!!!
Dreamcast was my second console after N64 but my first system was an Amiga. Fond memories of them all
I have old Next Generation issues in PDF form. Issues from 1995-1999. Next Gen hyped the Dreamcast a lot. Those were my high school years. So DC still feels fresh in my mind.
I always love it when you give the Dreamcast its props MJR my dude 👍 I got mine on 9/9/99 and still play it proudly to this day!
I'm near a complete NA set as well only 7 more games! I'm not just collecting every game but attempting to complete them as well and have stumbled on (in my opinion) many hidden and affordable gems
Keep up the quality content and never loose that infectious passion you have for gaming homie!
Is soooo comfy to watch your videos. Thanks Metal Jesus!
The Berserk game is probalbly shooting up in price because the author of the series passed away a while ago and now is more collectible.
This game has not been cheap for a long time
I loved playing the Toy Commander game, the toystore we had where i lived always had that game on display! Crazy taxi too!
Toy Commander was my first Dreamcast game purchase. In that game you are the little boy with his overcharged imagination. He is dreaming of ways to rescue and defeat his other toys that have gone rogue. I never defeated it, but I played the heck out of it. I pay have to revisit that one really soon... maybe make a TH-cam video of my triumphs (or probably my defeat).
The Dreamcast is long overdue for a proper resurrection. Sega could CASH IN BIG if they released a Dreamcast Resurrected system. There is an audience with money to throw at them. They could allow the passionate home brew/indie community to become larger players in the new Sega Dreamcast era! What a great pipe dream huh?
