uh, no? they stopped selling them because nobody was buying them, thanks to ps2 and xbox. sega made the mistake of coming out too soon and being too weak.

I believe this. I recall that when they announced they Dreamcast was dead they had a ridiculous amount of Dreamcasts left in warehouses. The reason I remember that so vividly is that I remember thinking at the time, "I wonder if there are old Transformers sitting in warehouses that are brand new?".

Yeah this doesn't surprise me. If I had the extra cash right now I would buy one right away.

The best part about DC was being able to D/L games, burn them to CD and play.
Yes, I supported SEGA very much.

Haha a whole CD image on 56k?

I remember by the time they discontinued Dreamcast you could get the system and a bunch of games for like 60 bucks.

The first review that shows up is lulzy.

Now let's talk about the PS2, I've studied the Dreamcast and the PS2 for over a year by researching numerous design articles on the Internet and unfortunately for Sony, the word is getting out, the PS2 is a bad design.

mine does that thing where it resets itself over and over sometimes. i think there's a fix, though.. and its service was admirable. i remember picking it up on 9-9-99 and having to get Trickstyle because they were sold out of everything else.

Pretty much every girl I've ever known has liked video games........a little.



It's just 5 buddies being sucked into the screen for hours not listening to a single thing the girl says seems to piss them off.

^+1 if anything just to play the rare JRPG Panzer Dragoon (http://www.amazon.com/Panzer-Dragoon-Saga-Sega-Saturn/dp/B000FT61OU)

Don't want to drop $250 for the game on ebay though. :(

This is a game I would love to see a remake of.

u know what game i would like sega to remake? virtua racing!!! i loved that game.. even if they left it polygons, give it high detail and physics but still with a 90s 3d polygon look would be cool.

VR was definitely a fun game.

i had Virtua Racer for 32x, it was neat.

every girl i've ever met likes exactly one game: Mario 3 on NES. and that's fucking IT. except for one girl i went out with right after high school, who also liked the first super mario and burger time. she did speed runs and shit.

32x was awesome.
I had like 3 games for it, Virtua Fighter being one of them.
Those were some sweet polygon graphics.

Whats up talking fish man!

"Do you know where I can find some sailors?"

"DO you know anyone that can read the ancient manuscripts?"

"Where is Lan Di?"

That very last part of that game was amazing. 100+ man rampage.

Yeah seriously, even the ones on craigslist are up there. I just want to play some jrpg's like Shining Wisdom. I even tried download the emulators for it but couldn't get it to work. Hopefully in the long run, I will find a deal on one.
