Google honored Tetris when it turned 25 this year,

but again, Tetris is a mass cultural phenomenon.

"Okay everybody who owned Tetris, raise your hand. Oh wow! Alright, now everybody who owned a Dreamcast raise your hand. Nobody? Nobody? Oh, wait... I think I see someone in the back there. Yup. Okay."

Yeah, but you could say the DC was too.

Think about it the DC was only really in the spotlight for two years (Japan 1998-2000, US & Worldwide 1999-2001) before it was overtaken by the PS2 GC & XBOX, but in those two years it was a phenomenon.

10 Million in two years? Back then that was unheard of, even the original PS1 had only sold about 54 million at that point but it had taken it 5 years, ruthless advertising and exclusivity contracts with publishers to make it that popular. The DC hit hard when it launched but faded away with the PS2 generation, I get that. But it was undoubtedly a phenomenon during it's short life.

I'm not saying that the DC was not popular at all. And obviously a lot of people on THIS board have one. But think of it like this, which team would you rather be on if we were playing Tug-O-War? (A) People who had/have Tetris, or (B) people who had/have a Dreamcast?

It's not even a close comparison, man. Parents, teachers, nongamers know Tetris. Hardcore gamers know DC.

B) Dreamcast: You can play Tetris anywhere but you can only play Dreamcast on a Dreamcast.

Alright forget it. You either don't get my point, or yr just ignoring it.

Ding! Ding! Ding! I think you've got it!

I honestly don't care about what other people believe deserves a greater honor. Would I like some support? Yes. Will I still give it a shot even against the odds? YES!

That's how I was taught to think, If you've got a goal then go for it no matter what!

Yeah that is the spirit... start a thread (aka conversation) and then ignore any opposing (rational) thoughts on the subject!

Really?

Look, I'm a perfectly rational guy but what's wrong with being an irrational Dreamcast fanboy every once and a while?
