What went wrong?
>>337101884
No dvd player
No second stick and only 2 shoulder buttons.
>>337101884
crappy timing and marketing -> few games that weren't well known -> couldn't compete with PS2 marketing
>>337101991
second stick would have helped. The control is just ugly as fuck to begin with though really.
>>337101884
I dunno
The Saturn was fine but this was a terrible console
>>337101884
Launched first in the gen. Easily pirated format. Hit and miss line-up/exclusives.
I loved the fuck out of my DC but tons of people weren't interested in the games it had.
>>337102114
With some absolutely fantastic fucking games on it.
>>337102114
Saturn was great in Japan.
It was Sega's lack of good marketing and lack of good games that screwed up the saturn and in turn the dreamcast.
>>337102045
Imagine if the DC came with a second analog and Halo came out for it like originally rumored.
>>337101884
It's filled with 5th gen ports
Shitty controller
Nearly no exclusives
No DVD player
Hipster console.
>>337102243
wouldnt have really been halo
Dreamcast was DoA thanks to Sega's finances.
It would have needed to sell 2x the PS2 in order for Sega to stay in the console buisness.
>>337102243
xbox became the dreamcast 2
no joke, they had some of the same tech and people work on it
similar games came out on both systems too
How do you go from the perfect Saturn controller to the shitty Dreamcast controller?
>>337102282
>>337102114
Kill yourselves.
>>337102386
Name 10 good Dreamcast exclusives
>>337102443
Why? You'll just jack yourself off saying they're shit
>>337102443
I've never seen a "name x y's" that didn't immediately end in
>those games you listed
>worth playing
>latestmeme.png
He's already posted memes so you know what's coming next.
It blows my mind that Microsoft propaganda about a SEGA console has survived this long. Everyone will tell you that the Dreamcast failed because SEGA itself was already dead in every regard
>hemorrhaging money on R&D of previous generation iterations
>bad reputation with the Saturn
>no dev or third party interest as a result
>dumping more money into peripheral R&D
>dumping more money into internet services and development
I'm not saying they were wrong to try and support their previous userbase or to not spend money on development and support for their new console but they were just straight up out of money and had no external support whatsoever. They even made right on their notoriously bad SDKs with the Dreamcast, it's so good that people are developing for it even today.
The "piracy killed the Dreamcast" is the biggest joke I've ever seen, how many people do you know that owned both a PC capable of writing CDs with high speed internet and a Dreamcast when it was still being sold. Not to mention all the GDROM stuff wasen't even cracked open for real until near end of life, the process is as simple as burning a disc now, it was not always that way, some games were not even possible to copy and play back then due to disc sizes. It cost more to get all the equipment to pirate than it did to buy the games, it was anything but widespread.
Meanwhile Microsoft used it as a convincing argument to DC publishers to migrate to Xbox which got softmoded easily by everyone.
Ahead of its time.

>>337102757
Oh go fuck yourself. Almost all of Sega's first party lineup has been ported since they went third party.
>>337102636
Trip fagging over the dreamcast.
>>337102757
>not exclusives
They were console exclusives unless you're counting ports that were releaased years after the original.
Half the games in pic related were ported to other platforms yet they're still recognized as PS2 exclusives.
>>337102656
>Skies of Arcadia

Yes, that's ME
>>337102905
>>337102968
You did exactly as I predicted.
There's literally no reason to ever respond to "name x y's" seriously. It just serves to give ebin memesters like you the oppertunity to shitpost.
Seriously fucking kill yourself.
>>337102893
are you literally retarded?
no one even likes you faggot
>>337103060
If anything you replied that by yourself.
I don't give a fuck anyway, a true SEGA fan would be disappointed by the Dreamcast because it doesn't hold up to SEGA's standard.
Unfortunately, you're just a poser.
>>337102905
>>Daytona USA
>more like Gaytona
>>337101884
Sega giving up
Dreamcast has an amazing lineup of games for how short of a time it lasted, I would have loved to see the games it could have gotten if it had lived a full console gen.
Sega should make a new Jet Set Radio. And Afterburner but thats neither here nor there.
>>337103161
>muh falseflag!
>any *true* sega fan would be dissapointed by the Dreamcast! You're just poser!
>I don't give a fuck anyway even though I'll still argue my worthless dogshit opinion!
You're reaching harder than Micheal Jordan did at the end of Space Jam

1 guy. and he made an absolute fortune selling boot discs and burned games at school. he was rich as fuck off that investment
>>337103416
Yeah and you're doing the same.
The Dreamcast was awful, please kill yourself why are you even celebrating the death of SEGA you sadistic fuck.
Nothing went wrong
At least its dying breath gave birth to the Hueg, the glorious god console of its time.
>>337103487

You and your opinions are fucking awful, the Dreamcast was a fine console, please kill yourself so I can celebrate your timely death.
>>337103451

You don't actually believe this do you?

>>337103807
You've already been blown the fuck out by multiple anons posting games, so nothing you say matters.
Your shitty opinions will always be worthless just like your pitiful existence.
>>337103875
>tfw those are all of my posts
>tfw I've been arguing with myself the whole time
>>337103802
in terms of being a 15 year old high school student who sold dozens upon dozens of copied games and cds for as much as 20 bills a disc. yes, i'm sure he made some serious cash
As someone that bought the DC on launch day, what went wrong is:
>no dvd player
>PS2 hype, which was a dvd player
>>337103962
Burnt Dreamcast discs went for less than $10 back in Chinatown, I refuse to believe there were kids that stupid even if you went to some rich preppy school.
>>337103901
I can't argue with scatophiles
Their breath smells like shit
The thing was jet loud long before the 360 made being loud a meme
>>337103583
oh hueg, you beautiful thing you
>>337104153
i actually went to a middle class school in ireland. at the time in ireland there was literally no other way to get pirated games. either you had the technology yourself, or paid someone that did
or you ordered them online which would end up costing the same
>>337104413
>>337103583
Too bad Halo was a big contributer to the AAA shooter shitfest of an industry we find ourselves in now.
>>337105106
Shooters were fine until CoD 4 showed up
Halo 1 didnt suddenly stop the influx of things like Half Life 2
The amount of arcade-y games on the console. Trying to sell an arcade machine as a home console in 1999 was a dumb idea. And don't forget the fact that the Saturn was not their future.
>>337105604
I'd kill for some more big budget arcadey games now with all muh cinematic experiences being the only shit with a budget bigger than a gnat's dick.
>>337102905
>Gaytona
fuck yourself
>never played a Dreamcast
>never even seen one in real life
>like it because it has "dream" in it
>was part of the golden age of home consoles
>this test boot up makes me nostalgic for some reason
