Actually what the FUCK was crackin when Sega let the Dreamcast die like that? I’m still heated, nigga. STILL. That console was sittin’ in the crib like a straight genius, talkin’ to the future, and Sega treated it like some temporary shit. No protection. No backup. Just vibes and bad decisions
Dreamcast pulled up swingin. Online out the box, arcade-perfect games, visuals smackin’, VMU had a damn screen like “yeah nigga, I’m different.” Shenmue had niggas walkin’ around towns for no reason just ‘cause it felt real. Soulcalibur had brothers beefin’ over controllers. Jet Set Radio had style oozin’ out the damn TV. That shit was crackin.
But Sega? Sega was movin’ like they aint wanna win. Burned the streets too many times already, so when Dreamcast came through clean, folks was like “nah nigga, you ain’t finna get me again.” Trust was dead. Dead-dead. Dreamcast in the crib starvin’ while Sega countin’ pennies and hopin for miracles.
Sony slid in like that rich cousin, calm as hell, money long, talkin’ bout DVDs and “next gen” like they invented oxygen. Sega over here stressed, broke, fightin’ for they life, tryin’ to save face and a whole company at the same time. That ain’t a battle, that’s a damn execution.
And what fucks me up is Dreamcast wasn’t trash. Wasn’t mid. Wasn’t lackin’. That shit was NASTY. Too nasty. Too early. Console was livin’ in the future while everybody else still tryna figure out what a thumbstick do. Sega went broke tryin’ to be first, and the industry said “preciate the work, nigga now move.”
Now years later everybody wanna pop out like “Dreamcast was underrated.”Brother, shut the fuck up. Where was that love when it was sittin’ on shelves collectin’ dust? Y’all ain’t buy it, ain’t defend it, ain’t ride for it. Now you sentimental? Fake love, forreal.
I’ll be in my crib mad about this till I’m old. Dreamcast deserved better, nigga. On everything

I did buy it and had over 100 original games not pirated. Had the twin sticks i imported. I'd go online day 1 with every online game sometimes be the only dude. You got a real one over here nigga. You probably was still in ya dad's nutsack back then tho

Piracy killed the Dreamcast. It didn't even need to be modded to read burned CDs.

While true that it was easy to pirate, it was dead anyway. Piracy never killed any console

>>732295340
they couldn't afford to be yet again the underdog after the huge saturn blunder. But blunder is kind of sega trademark.

The head of marketing was being paid under the table by microsoft to tank the console.
