For my :flabbynsick: heads, remember this from back in the day?

Shyt was revolutionary and changed the game (literally). Was crazy to have a memory card that could also do a bunch of other shyt (ie. minigames, showing secrets plays in 2K, health bars, etc.). Just figured this deserves an appreciation thread.

Dreamcast in general though. :wow:

Dreamcast started it all - peripherals, online play, Had a bunch of fly ass games too :ohlawd:. Everything was good for 2 months before Sony came through and crushed the buildings :damn:(:whew:).


My cousin had one and he was a stingy hoe with it :pacspit:, but it was always fun to play.


Sidenote @acri1 , you cop that Last Airbender on Bluray?

Sega really had innovation for days

Never had DC but I knew someone that did, Powerstone and Sonic Demo galore

First Soul Blade/Edge sequel :ufdup: first time nikkas heard about a Soul Calibur

Videogames need more fun game-related hardware innovations and less Graphic based shyt

Nintendo can't be the only ones leading the charge on that
