This Looks So Cool... SEGA Dreamcast Trading Cards, But I Hate Limited Run Games

SEGA Dreamcast trading cards, but the company who is making them sucks. If you're curious why, look at their shipping history with how long they take to ship out pre-ordered items as well as recent quality control issues like with the Sonic x Shadow Generations CE. Though, this video is nice eye candy I suppose.

First playthrough on Shenmue 2

For a game made 25 years ago I’m blown away by the visuals. I know people love to throw around the phrase “this game still holds up” but playing this for the first time I can still see the charm in this 25 year old game.

Is there a list of all Sega first party games available to play on current consoles?

If so, I’d appreciate if someone would give a link to that list.

Before Xbox Live: Dreamcast Web Browser 2.0 Variants & SegaNet History

Long before digital storefronts and modern online services, Sega was already pushing internet connectivity on consoles through SegaNet and the Dreamcast Web Browser.

Here are a few North American variants of my collection for the Dreamcast Web Browser 2.0 release,

What makes these interesting to collect is how many were distributed differently depending on console bundles, SegaNet sign-up campaigns, and retail promotions during the early 2000s.

Looking back now, it’s wild how far ahead of the curve the Dreamcast really was with online console gaming. How was your experience with Sega Net ?

Enjoying one of my favourite DC game while far away from my Dc

My sister and I old Dreamcast is at my parents house with all the games I use to play.

I use it from time to time but now it's my nephew's turn to enjoy it. He likes sonic adventure a lot but struggles a bit on certain technical parts (that being said the joystick on the controller is worn and not helping.

So when I saw that this game was on the windows store for 4 € and that I didn't need to have any knowledge in emulation I just couldn't resist.

I'm having a proper blast going through this gem a game and can't surprising my nephew with this game when he'll visit me !

You guys at r/dreamcast! I got two dollars from the Tooth Fairy. So look, I don't know why the tooth fairy's being so cool to me. Maybe she's hot for me. I don't know, but if we all chip in with teeth, then I can hide them under my pillow and we could get enough money to buy a SEGA DREAMCAST!!

Just revived my JSR shirt

My Jet Set Radio shirt was so faded, the image was barely even visible anymore so I went over it with some acrylic Sharpies. Hope y'all enjoy 😊

(I went with black for the dark green, since I didn't have a color match)

Introducing Tomáš: King of Rejection (a multiplatform point & click adventure in the best tradition of Leisure Suit Larry) and GLAND, the custom IDE to make it all happen

Just thought I'd create a new post to share my progress.

After having been sick with the flu most of last week, I spent all of Sunday and Monday working on GLAND (my engine is called SCUNK and its mascot is a skunk. So the naming convention just fit, while also staying true to the tradition established by the fine folks at LucasArts with SCUMM, BYLE, CYST, FLEM, MMUCAS and the unreleased SMEGMA), a new IDE for developing (primarily*) point and click adventure games that can be run in both ScummVM and a custom bytecode VM I maintain for ports to more exotic or lower end systems (Atari ST, Amiga 500/1000, 3DO, Sega Saturn, PS1. You name it, I probably got it).

The main goal in developing GLAND is to create a user-friendly development system that enables non-developers to contribute to indie game development and even complete laymen to start (and hopefully finish) their own little games.

The final release will ship with the ability to both package and test games in emulation (for Amiga, Atari ST, PS1, Sega Saturn, N64 and 3DO) as well as transfer the final binary to the target hardware via common USB debug protocols.

The final release of GLAND will be made available completely free-of-charge.

That being said, I still need help getting my game funded so I can work on this care-free.

* Technically, the scripting language is Turing-complete so you're not really limited to just point and click adventure games. In fact, I have made several non-adventure games in that engine and GLAND will include non-adventure templates as well.

De la Jet Set Radio

This game is amazing and I play it once a month just to use the Dreameye feature. Isn’t that cool to take a picture and use it on your game ?

Here i used my Sega Saturn frame

PS : the Dreameyés pictures can’t be used in a European or American version of Jet Set Radio unfortunately

Crushed

Couldn't see this buried in the dumpster before I compacted it during work. There was a playstation one as well that got obliterated. And a whole bunch of games for everything that are shattered and crushed. The n64 slid out and looks like it might have survived though

DC exclusives for GDEMU

Whats up everyone, I finally got a chance to buy a GDEMU for the Dreamcast a buddy gifted me last year. I'm pretty new to the console and was looking for some recs on system exclusive titles that you think are ESSENTIAL when loading up the ODE. I already have a list of household games i will throw on (ie Skies of arcadia, sonic adventure 2, etc) but I'd love to hear what some die hards would suggest

Does this work well for playing import games on a North American Dreamcast?

If I were to get one of these, would I be able to use it to play any Japanese or European game I like on my Dreamcast? Does anybody here have this? How well does it work? Does any Gameshark disc for Dreamcast let you play import games, or do only Gamesharks with the "Cheats N Codes" branding have this feature?

Modding a VA0

Just found out gdemu don’t exactly work on a va0, and I don’t have any smoldering skills so changing the resistors isn’t much of an option. I’m aware dreamshell is an option to mod it but heard it’s kinda wack. Anybody have other solutions to mod a va0 Dreamcast?
Thank u

Peripherals

I had to clean out my back bedroom/home office where the Dreamcast is. Decided to take a picture of all my accessories.
