Dreamcast
Platform »
The Dreamcast is the fifth and final console developed by Sega and the first of the sixth-generation of consoles to release. As the first 128-bit system, it was the first to offer truly arcade-quality 3D graphics. It is famous for being the first console to include worldwide online capability, its game library, and its unexpectedly short life span.
Should this year anniversary be a huge deal?
Why would it be a big deal? It was a great console and all, but it's time is done. It would be a big deal if they announced a Dreamcast 2 though.
"Sega should celebrate the anniversary with a brand new game for 9/9/09: Sonic's Ultimate Dreamcast Collection! Give me the Sonic Adventure games, Shenmue, Power Stone games, Crazy Taxi games, etc....I'd love me a good Dreamcast collection. Mmmmm, tastes good."That's actually a good idea, and yea, they do need to keep the horrible name. But no the anniversary shouldn't be a big deal. I don't like to celebrate failure.
I would like for it to be a bigger deal than the other anniversary seeing how it's the tenth one. It would be cool to see interviews of Sega, Capcom, or any other company that worked on games for the system, talking about their time developing games for the Dreamcast.
It would be better to see that than people talk about the Dreamcast for a short amount time on a podcast....
"YES. The Dreamcast 2 is coming, and Rock Band Beatles will be an exclusive for it. Come on guys, Sega did this with the Saturn already."True. The funny thing is I had a fake Dreamcast 2 promo on some special day for SEGA and got a couple people to believe that there would
be a Dreamcast 2 production. I even had a fake link from the official SEGA website and got some people to go there and say it was real. That was funny.
Yeah, I would like to see SEGA do something with it but i've given up hope with them doing anything good so i'm expecting 9/9/09 to fly by with maybe a different home page on the SEGA website or something.

Seriously, I think you are on to something about this. That would even trump the Genesis Collection. Now, let's make this happen.....

Oh, and fixed. It's there.

I would be down with that, but it's very unlikely. Power Stone is Capcom developed ;)
I would love a new Dreamcast release from SEGA, for the original console.
" I know it was done to death but I would definitely buy an XBLA version of Craxy Taxi and maybe Shenmue, hell we should all revive the idea of bringing Sega's Dreamcast library to the XBLA, that would be fucking sweet. "What about PSN? Why must you be greedy? PSN & XBLA, get it right next time.

" @TheHBK said:YES! I agree." @Kou_Leifoh said:Huh?Anyways, yes, I would love to see a dreamcast selection of games released for all of the platforms :D "" @TheHBK said:Because Dreamcast games are not meant to be played on that controller.

I want a Jet Set Radio game one way or another; Future on XBLM, Grind on virtua console, i don't care lol
Just one more mouth! I've found out that Sega celebrated the 20TH anniversary of the Genesis - they're celebrating by posting a poll about which Genesis game should hit XBLA.
Though I think Sega suck balls for only having it available on XBLA and not on other platforms like PSN, and also, fuck 3rd party exclusives.
