A video game console released on September 9th, 1999, or "9/9/99." The system ushered in the 128-bit age, with impressive graphics and online capabilities out of the box via a 56k modem.
The system was a huge hit among hardcore gamers and Sega Fanatics. Yet, in 2001, Sega pulled the plug on the system, and consoles were no longer manufactured. Many reasons exist for why the system failed -- no support of certain "critical" publishers, prior failure of the Sega Saturn, the ease with which games could be pirated, and the hype of the looming PS2. During its two year lifespan, over 250 games were released in the U.S. market, and many were hugely successful.
Whatever the reason for its demise, the system lived a life too short, but will always be remembered fondly in the hearts of serious gamers for excellent titles such as Soul Calibur, Sonic Adventure, Power Stone, Shenmue, and Crazy Taxi, just to name a few. We miss you, Dreamcast.
Hey man, I just got a Dreamcast.
Oh yeah, that's that badass system from Sega!
But.. isn't PS2 coming out soon. Why did you buy one?
BE QUIET. Dreamcast has great potential for fun. Gaming is about variety and innovation, and Dreamcast has both.

Just like John F. Kennedy. Was going to do great things but was killed off much to soon.
The Dreamcast is one of the greatest consoles of all time.

A game console which was never very popular, no games ever seemed to be released and it is quite embarrassing if you actually ever owned one.

Sega's last game console. Considered by many to be one of the greatest systems of all time. It died only three years after its launch, due to bad decision-making on a corporate level, no support from EA, and hype from Sony's PlayStation 2. Despite this, the Dreamcast still has a strong following, and games are still being produced for it in Japan. The Dreamcast was innovative in the fact that it was the first next-gen system of the four, had online capabilities right out of the box, and presented the first true 3D Sonic game. Many fans believe that this isn't the last Sega console, and that plans for a new system will begin in at least 6 years, or after Sega pays off their debt.
Sega Dreamcast - It's thinking.
