SEGA Dreamcast 2

So all the release titles are nothing but sequels? In fact they don't even have any subtitles, they've just slapped a 2 or 3 on the end of all those games.

I'd like them to release a VR helmet console. My 80's child dream.

That would be awesome.


If I remember correctly there were rumors going round that Atari were trying to create a virtual helmet for the Jaguar.

I did notice that, and some of them look like shoddy 'shop jobs as well, but I'm just wishing really hard that they are real

I would dearly love to see Sega back too, but they would have to release the most massively overpowered machine to even get their foot in the door. I seriously doubt that any company wading in to the market by releasing a console of similar spec to the current competition would entice any buyers, you'd have to burst out of the gate and hit the ground running.


I think they should bring back cartridge gaming! Also, I truly believe that if Sega were to make a come back then they should drop Sonic, he ceased being cool in 1994. Just drop him entirely, no rebooting of the franchise, no 2.5D attempts to claw back some of the glory of the originals, just put him in the garden, give him a saucer of cat food and slowly close the patio door forever.

They did that mini MegaDrive recently that plays most MD carts, but no one made any new games for it

bring back alex kidd

 

[GiraffeeDreams]

I second that!

 

[Nintendo]

I wish SEGA would just release a console asap, because none of the big 3 (Nintendo, SONY and Microsoft) are doing a very good job of things, hardware wise.

 

[Blue Protoman]

Get used to it.

 

[Nintendo]

9 years on (since the official discontinuation of SEGA Dreamcast, 4 years ago was the last SEGA of Japan published game) and I'm still not used to it.

 

[Jourdy288]

I just bought some Dreamcast shmups/fighters from a garage sale, got a good deal too All the stuff's from Capcom for some reason...

 

[Nintendo]

The seller must have been a Capcom game fan.

I refer more to today's sub-par efforts than to Sega's leave. But yes, having them back in would be cool, in theory... In practice, if they never left, they might be the same as everybody else, or possibly worse.

 

[Nintendo]

Ah, ok. That's more like it, as in I'm pretty sure SEGA would be somewhere in the middle of good and bad.

If you want to find out if there are truth to the rumours, try and find someone that works for a potential developer of the rumoured console, befriend them and take them down the pub and beer them up, they might talk >_>

 

[Fzero]

I'd love to see this happen too, quite liked the sound of the new sonic factory game myself though, the level design for online share sounds good, could do a 'faster' version of little big planet

 

[Nintendo]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind a LBP game with Sonic and friends in it.

Buy them an alcoholic Apple cider, perhaps...

 

[obiwan22]

this is so fake, companies aren't going to start making games for the dreamcast 2,if it does come out, because of the fact it would be crapshoot if the dreamcast 2 would fail again.

 

[gunni]

I would think it wouldn't be very smart of them to make a device and put the dreamcast name anywhere near it, it would be paramount to corporate suicide.


They would be better off reviving the Sega VR project and sell it on the point that got it scrapped.... "play games until you puke!" what a slogan that would be!

 

[Blue Protoman]

These days, it would more likely be "Shoot people until we make you buy DLC!"
