How is your Dreamcast gaming going on?

Like Sega was talking about how they wanted the DC to be this console that would get upgrades and revisions rather than just making a "Dreamcast 2." It's almost like they were thinking of the console as a PC - or perhaps took some inspiration from their arcade division.

Well, there was the Karaoke add on and theprototype Zip drive.

It should be pretty cheap on the ps2

Isn't there a remix version on the ps2, new character or something and extras?

Never played it and up to this point owning a PS2 has been sacrilegious to me lol. I hear some slowdown, pixels drop during combat and other such abnormalities. Some say its not to bad. Depends if you want to pay 35ish for the DC version or $10 for the pS2 version.

I remember reading somewhere a while back and for some reason it stuck in my head. That SOJ president initially wanted more Ram in the DC basically it would be a Naomi. I think Sega did envision the DC as a potential to be PC like and to have other features. Even when it met it demise there was talk about incorporating DC technology into other venues. Here's a link to one such idea. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sega-a ... 0-2681885/

ah right the magazine mentioned that pricing model as well. Remember when you could get a rebate of the price of the system if you signed up for 2 years of SegaNet? I guess Sega was really interested in that idea going forward of basically paying for a service instead of for their hardware.

The one thing I wish is that the import shmups would go down in price. I can't afford those games.

Agreed. If I could pick up Border Down, Under Defeat, and Zero Gunner 2 I would be able to pretty much retire from Dreamcast collecting altogether.
