In many ways it's superior to fpses written exclusively for the Dreamcast. Check it out sometime. There was a piece written in Game Developer magazine about it shortly after it came out, going into detail about how it turned out.

The fact that the gameplay is trash isn't Windows fault.

So if you're saying making games with Windows CE didn't produce a good product... You might be right.
If you're saying it couldn't, you'd be wrong.
Well, KISS to the fucking rescue, again.

Don't buy the Master System 2 yet. I heard they're revealing a slim version at E3 with Blu-ray.

And RyaN, please forgive my previous doubtfulness. At the time I had no idea that you took classes. Where may I preorder my Saturn 2?

Awesome, I've been waiting like a decade for a Master System 2!

But wait, is it not backwards compatible with the original Master System? Then how will I play my copy of Alex Kidd in Shinobi World?!?!

Also, is there a potential game list for the Sega Saturn 2 coming out? I'm interested in launch titles. A third D game would be much appreciated.

Maybe it will at least be backwards compatible with the Genesis as you can use your Power Base Converter (in addition to 32X!)

ok well first of all its not nearly done yet, were still concepting and we cant get the plastics guy in town to build the casing yet. We are still building the Linux software. Guys, ive been working on this for a month (yes but havent told anybody about it knowing they would discourage me but since im getting close to the qaurter way point bout now i can finish it in mabe a 3-5 months) but so far we have upressed a couple sega saturn games via the built in software emulator. Im sorry guys but no Dreamcast emulator will be put in unless it really takes off and we can build an online service to download the games. Stupid GD-ROM. But linux has been a pain in the A$$. But, its okay i guess, we actually MIGHT switch to windows CE just because i myself have more experience with it. For right now though we have been running PC games on it to test the limits of the hardware, i am very suprised though, we have a demo of Crysis thats compatable with Linux that we have gotten up to High settings with a stable 30fps. Course its not using DX10 but its still pushing some impressive stuff, oh and we have the best game on Linux running on highest settings, thats right, TETRIS

. We still have issues getting software to run on the Linux were using though, in the end it will look a little something like the original saturn menu, but less dorky.
