Video Description

Don’t call it a comeback. Seriously, don’t, as far as the Sega Dreamcast is concerned. What many hoped would be a grand return to form for Sega turned out to be the final nail in the coffin of making their own hardware. It’s a sad story, once again filled with odd choices on the Japanese giant’s part, but this time, their undoing mostly came down to the fact that there was just no room left for anyone but Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo. But is that what really happened to the Sega Dreamcast, despite over 500 games being produced for the system between 1998 and 2001, and a decidedly splashy PR blitz that wasn’t wholly successful, but sure was fun to watch? 00:00 Intro 01:19 The State of Sega 03:39 A Short Life on Saturn 06:00 Dreaming Big 11:19 An Underwhelming Japanese Launch 15:46 Sega Finishes the Job 19:08 Remembering the Dream 20:47 Outro 👉Want to see what other consoles have to offer in terms of their best games?
