In Honor of Dreamcast Day
Zen Albatross | 7:10 PM on 09.09.2008 9 comments




The Dreamcast has always been an enigmatic console to me. Among all the retro consoles, it is the one that I have the least experience with. I bought a used Dreamcast a while back along with JoJo's Bizzare Adventure, 2 controllers and a VMU for only $40. Unfortunately, a month later my Dreamcast stopped working. I never really got to enjoy the system as much as so many others have. However, in honor of Dreamcast Day I've decided the only proper way I can commemorate the birth of this treasured console is with this: The Japanese commercial for ChuChu Rocket. Enjoy.

ZU-WA WA WA WAAAAAAHHHH!

It's all right, I'll just put games in it and take hallucinogens.

I was just telling Z today: Fuck the DreamCast. The only things it ever gave us were fighters and smups, plus the occasional Jet Set Radio. The controller has the worst d-pad of all time, and the VMUs were never realized.

Even Ulala got a PS2 port - and it played BETTER.
