It's important to remember the classics. And the Dreamcast was an absolute staple console. To many, it was the best system ever made. While we remember how great it was, it's also fascinating to reminisce on its history, and the decline of ...

A theoretical Dreamcast Mini loaded with Sonic Adventure, the hard-to-find Power Stone titles, Crazy Taxi, Jet Grind Radio, SoulCalibur, Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and more? It sounds like a dream come true. Well, a lot of folks have been ant...

[Update: Kenji Hiruta finds the overwhelming support for Skies of Arcadia "impressive," and vows to "organize all [the] comments and submit [them] to Sega directly." Who knows if anything will happen here, but it's something!] At one p...

I have to admit, this is one of those franchises I'd long considered lost to time. But it appears, against the odds, that the classic Dreamcast puzzler Chu Chu Rocket! is preparing to make a comeback, bringing its addictive cat-and-mouse ga...

1999 might be one of the best years of video games on record. This is the year we got EverQuest (which took Ultima Online's MMO dreams to a new level), oddball risks like UmJammer Lammy, Aliens versus Predator PC, the celebrated Street...

Power Stone is one of my favorite franchises of all time. It cemented my love of brawlers forevermore, and the second entry in particular is one of my most-played games to date. It also had some pretty legendary talents behind it, like Hide...

When I was a kid I used to lie around in the grass and ask myself questions like "What makes a Sega game special?"Of course, the answer to that question depends on what era of Sega you're talking about. When they started in with home consol...

Here's a nice bit of pretend playing: Rage 2 is "coming to Dreamcast." Of course, that's not strictly true. But Bethesda is running a promotion that dresses everything up in costume and keeping a straight face. Bethesda's giving this c...

I talk about the Dreamcast a lot. I feel like a crazy person when I tell people "I remember back on 9/9/99, we had a grand old time with Soulcalibur, choosing plays on a tiny screen in NFL 2K and Sonic Adventure." That was like, forever ago...

Given that it's already out on pretty much every other platform, Ghost Blade HD coming to Switch makes sense. Developer Hucast Games has announced that it's going to be Switch-bound sometime in 2019, and teases the addition of Tate (ve...

In an industry that does basically nothing to preserve the past, Sega has been an outlier. On basically any platform imaginable, you can obtain a decent chunk of Sega's first-party output from the Genesis and a few select games from other p...

The recent release of Shenmue I + II for PS4, Xbox One and PC has left many wondering what a full remaster/remake of the legendary title would look like. Was Sega ever working on such a project? Turns out it was. As uncovered by Euroga...

For nearly as long as I’ve been playing Yakuza games, I’ve always read comments from fans saying, “These games are like Shenmue”. At first glance, that definitely sounds accurate. I even remember making such a claim ...

Now that we have a release date for the Shenmue I & II remaster, more details about the compilation are coming out and it could be a cause for concern from diehard fans. In an FAQ on the official Shenmue website, Sega has made it clear ...

As spotted on Sega Forever's Facebook page, Sega has gotten the Very Good idea to make replica Mega Drive and Dreamcast candles. There's just one question: what scent should they have? Folks have been chiming in with suggestions like Street...

Shenmue is a strange game that always fascinated me. The open-world adventure follows Ryo as he pursues his father's killer across Japan and China, but sometimes he's on an urgent search for sailors, and others he's just hanging out by that...

Super Monkey Ball: Sakura Edition was an iPad exclusive installment in the long running series that originally launched in 2010. It has now joined Sega's free mobile game initiative, Sega Forever, for Android and iOS devices. Sakura Edition...

I was there on 9/9/99, with multiple months worth of snow-shoveling money from the winter before and birthday/Christmas money from family, at the launch of the Dreamcast (which also happened to coincide with the release of Final Fantasy VII...

This weekend at Topikagi, part of the Japan Amusement Expo 2018, players were able to tag-up with the fabulous go-go boots of futuristic news reporter Ulala, as funkadelic franchise Space Channel 5 made a long-awaited return, now in VR form...

I recently asked my Twitter followers what system they'd like to see rereleased as a plug-and-play "classic" console next; the PS1, the N64, the original Xbox, or the GBA. The PS1 won by a pretty decent margin, but the most popular write-in...

Sega's ever expanding collection of free-to-play mobile games, Sega Forever, will be getting a new entry today with the release of Virtua Tennis Challenge. Based on the 2000 Dreamcast original, Challenge was the series' transition to mobile...

Nintendo isn't the only company with an extensive back catalog of retro classics. Sega was also hot during the '90s and their portfolio of titles is nearly as ubiquitous with retro gamers as the Big N's. While Sega has never shied away from...
