The long-awaited Dreamcast collection for the Xbox 360 and PC now has a release date: February 22. The collection includes Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, Space Channel 5: Part 2 (ha!), and Sega Bass Fishing. No price available just yet. → Read More
So you thought the Dreamcast was dead, huh? Not so fast! A German tech show, 3Sat, has an interview with a game developer who is putting together a whole new game, and it looks awesome. → Read More
How many of you out there still have your Dreamcasts tucked away somewhere? Nice. Me too. I mean, when you’ve got classics like Chu Chu Rocket, Skies of Arcadia, Soul Calibur, Rez, and more all still looking as good as they did in 1999 (actually still pretty good), why would you throw it away?
And now you don’t even have to worry about finding your old discs. This SD card adapter means all the… → Read More
It’s so much fun that brand new Dreamcasts are still available in limited supply. Both ThinkGeek and Amazon have sold them occasionally in the past and now they are back at Amazon with the original description and user reviews from 1999. Classic. → Read More
This is the IntoDream, a homemade, portable DreamCast. It’s a bit of a Frankenstein’s monster of sorts, being part DreamCast, part PSone, and part N64. → Read More
Last time Dreamcasts were spotted for sale, the price was north of $100, but Amazon now has the system for only $79. It’s NIB too. Ladies, this could make a great Christmas gift for your nerd boyfriend. → Read More
The year was 2002. Two friends and I had just finished moving into a swanky three-bedroom affair a block away from Lake Calhoun in the trendy Uptown area of Minneapolis. Upon waking up after a blowout house warming party with what seemed like 500 of our closest friends, I found my SNES, Genesis, and Dreamcast covered in beer and orange juice. I haven’t felt complete since that very moment. If… → Read More
E3 got you down? Nintendo’s Vitality not what you expected? Pick yourself up the hottest tech from before this nation’s long nightmare of war and prosperity – the Sega Dreamcast! Amazon has this thing new-in-box for $119.99 with free shipping, a tempting offer to any young man or woman whose love of Sonic is uneclipsed by a desire to breed. → Read More
You always wanted a Dreamcast right? But part of the fun of buying a gadget is breaking the seal for the first time. ThinkGeek has your back. → Read More
In what may qualify as nostalgia overload, an enterprising Canadian has replaced the insides of an old all-in-one iMac with a Sega Dreamcast console. The end result is the iCast. → Read More
What gamer doesn’t have fond memories of the Sega Dreamcast? Apparently this guy wanted to relive those Jet Set Radio days while on the go – or in his cubical. This mod started as a Lazer Doodle toy and then after a bunch of cutting, epoxing, sanding, and dreaming, the whole thing plays 10-year old games. The whole thing is gigantic when compared to a modern handheld gaming device… → Read More
This here is a limited edition Sega Dreamcast, one of them Resident Evil: Code Veronica editions. Supposedly only 1,800 of these were made, which seems reasonable: not even Wikipedia mentions its existence. If you’re willing to part with $800, it could well be yours. And if I even had an extra $800 handy, I would seriously consider it. Dreamcast was too beautiful for this world. via Gadget… → Read More
I’m getting all wrapped up in this interview with Peter Moore over at The Guardian. In today’s second part, he recounts his transition from the demise of the Dreamcast to his eventual move over to Microsoft. Seems he held some resentment against Sony PR for getting in the way of his Dreamcast plans. → Read More
The Guardian has a pretty cool interview up with Peter Moore, president of EA Sports. Back in the day, he was head of Sega of America. In fact, he was the guy who killed the Dreamcast. As awesome as the Dreamcast was, maybe it’s a good thing it died; it served its purpose. It helped usher in the next-gen era of console gaming by supporting broadband capabilities. It could even be argued that… → Read More
Sure, it’s not the most portable of portables, but if you long for the simpler days of Dreamcast, why not build a version you can take almost anywhere? Also, a note to the guy who sold me the broken Dreamcast at the Detroit Lakes, MN flea market last summer; I want my $20 back. I’m coming after you like a tornado made of arms, teeth, and fingernails. via Nowhere Else 2.0 → Read More
This guy is thinking of suing Nintendo, alleging that he came up with an idea that the gaming giant copied with its so-popular-we-can-all-afford-long-pants Wii system. This video was apparently made about eight years ago. If it’s real, this guy might have a shot at some cash. Contrary to popular belief around the blogosphere, it’s my opinion that he’s wearing shorts, not… → Read More
Sega filed for some patents back in August that are looking suspicious. Flash memory cards? I don’t remember Dreamcast brand flash cards – though they did have the amazing VMU, the world’s first (and last, probably) combination Game Boy and memory card. To be honest, there really isn’t much of a chance this is happening – it’s down to the big three now, and Sega… → Read More
I have thus far let my perverse love of timepieces go unquenched on these pages, but no longer. Here is a fancy Dreamcast Watch that opens up just like the original Dreamcast to reveal the time. Practical? No. Geek-tastic? Yes. It’s available now for pre-order for $129 and will ship September 29. If it was every your goal to have a portable Dreamcast, this is probably about the closest… → Read More
