Many argue it is fine for the type of games on it. I disagree. Trying to walk around in Shenmue is a total disaster. It didn’t control especially well on release due to mapping movement to the digital pad, but it’s even worse when using the same thumb to manipulate the camera too! Sega warns of losses".

Some journalists have compared the demise of the Dreamcast with changing trends in the video game industry. In 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die, Duncan Harris wrote: "One of the reasons that older gamers mourned the loss of the Dreamcast was that it signaled the demise of arcade gaming culture... Sega's console gave hope that things were not about to change for the worse and that the tenets of fast fun and bright, attractive graphics were not about to sink into a brown and green bog of realistic war games." [268] Jeremy Parish, writing for USgamer, contrasted the Dreamcast's diverse library with the "suffocating sense of conservatism" that pervaded the gaming industry in the following decade. [269] According to Sega's head of product implementation, Tadashi Takezaki, the Dreamcast would have been Sega's last video game console no matter how it sold because of the changes in the market and the rise of PCs. He praised the Dreamcast for its features, saying in 2013, "The seeds we sowed with the Dreamcast are finally bearing fruit at this point in time. In some ways, we were going by the seat of our pants, but it was part of the Sega credo at the time — if it's fun, then go for it." [270] The choice to use the PowerVR architecture concerned Electronic Arts (EA), a longtime developer for Sega consoles. EA had invested in 3dfx but was unfamiliar with the selected architecture, which was reportedly less powerful. [30] According to Shiro Hagiwara (a general manager at Sega's hardware division) and Ian Oliver (the managing director of the Sega subsidiary Cross Products), the SH-4 was chosen while still in development, following lengthy deliberation, as the only processor that "could adapt to deliver the 3D geometry calculation performance necessary". [32] By February 1998, Sega had renamed the project Katana, after the Japanese sword, [25] although certain hardware specifications such as random access memory (RAM) were not finalized.

Review: Xenocider

I think it's SUPER comfortable to hold and works brilliantly for the games on the system. Love the VMU. Probably one of my favourite controllers. However, it does have a few downsides: In most regions, the Dreamcast includes a removable modem for online connectivity, which is modular for future upgrades. [32] In Brazil, due to the high price of the console, the modem was sold separately. [154] The original Japanese model and all PAL models have a transfer rate of 33.6kbit/s, and consoles sold in the US and in Japan after September 9, 1999, feature a 56 kbit/s dial-up modem. [155] Broadband service was enabled through the later release of a broadband accessory in 2000 in Japan, [156] and early 2001 in the US.

Anyway, history lesson over. I like the Dreamcast as a platform, and it is fortunate to have a couple of extremely good emulators on the PC (although ironically, the Windows CE games are a bit of a pain to get working).
