I love my Dreamcast so much, and have fond memories playing Ready to Rumble, Sonic Adventure, House of the Dead 2, Crazy Taxi, Virtual On, and Shenmue as a kid. I also distinctly remember sitting in my childhood bedroom playing that old JRPG, Evolution: The World of Sacred Device, and listening to Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory on repeat while playing because it was a bit of a grind. Super awesome console

Evolution: The World of Sacred Device is one of my favorite games on the Dreamcast! That game takes me back to late 1999-early 2000 and playing that game non-stop. The soundtrack is also masterpiece; those dungeon themes are ingrained into earholes haha!

Dude, I’m still playing my Sports Edition DC from 2000. I just bought Toy Commander last week from a Retro Game Store. My all time favorite system.

To fix the yellowing on the controllers and the console all you need to do it go to a beauty supply store and get Salon Care 40 put it on the yellowed sections, put saran wrap over it, and leave it out in the sun for a few hours. I have some tutorials on my channel from a few years ago if anyone is interested.

Easily my favorite console with some of my most fond memories. I was still in High School, and 9/9/99 was the gateway to a fantastic Summer Vacation. I remember paying for this with my own money, and waiting in line to pickup my pre-order at midnight at Lloyd Center in Portland. The anticipation leading to realease day was unreal - I had all the magazines, and read them several times. Taking my VMU to school the following year so that I could raise my Chao in class was also exciting. My younger brother and I would ultimately burn through a couple Dreamcasts due to running Phantasy Star Online for days at a time (sorry for hogging the phone lines, dad!).

Man I loved the Dreamcast. I remember soldering a breadboard together to get VGA output when the VGA boxes were insanely expensive! Nowadays everything is insanely expensive lol.

Alongside something like the Switch, the Dreamcast is one of the most loveable gaming machines of all time. The sleek look of the console, the quirky controller, the welcome screen, the arcade-style games, THOSE blue skies. It was impossible to own a Dreamcast and not fall in love with it

The StarFire LightBlaster for House of the Dead 2 was my favorite accessory. Beautiful Japanese cyberpunk style lightgun with double trigger, vibration and D-pad

I got my Dreamcast after I started watching your channel. Never had it or the Saturn. Quickly learned buying for the Saturn was ridiculous. Grabbed my DC on eBay for $60 with all the stuff including a loose copy of Marvel vs Capcom 2. Great Deal 👍

My brother had a Saturn, and it was a pretty good system. The one thing that I absolutely hate about the Dreamcast is how hard it is to backup and restore the discs. Unlike my GB, GBC, NES, Genesis, 32x and N64, my Dreamcast is extremely hard to backup the games for and from what I know, the Saturn is only a bit easier. Given that with the Dreamcast you can lose the ability to use it by both the discs going bad as well as the optical drive, it's a shame that it won't have the longevity that some of these other systems do. (And yes, I know that you can install an opitical drive emulator, but that still requires that you backed the discs up in the first place which is a bit of a challenge)

Amazing collection! I bought a dreamcast last year with an akura hdmi box bundled in. One of my favorite consoles. Seamed like we blinked and it disappeared from stores back then. Slowly building up my collection now.

I have that carrying case. Got it in an eBay auction about 7 years ago. Came complete with the Dreamcast console, 2 controllers and a lot of accessories. Got it for around $25 if I remember correctly. It was a great find.

My favorite of the sega consoles. It's simply amazing just how much they were able to do with such little time on the market they had

I love Dreamcast so much ! Got it when it was new and I had just saved up from my first afterschool part-time job and bought a little TV for my room ... Dreamcast was so impressive and fun

Love the Dreamcast. Bought it on release day for 489 Deutsche Mark (I'm from Germany) alongside with a VMU and Blue Stinger, Sonic Adventure and Sega Rally 2. My favorite console of all time and it was, as you said, so ahead of its time. Love your channel, cause you speak so clearly, so I understand every single word. All the best from Germany

The fishing rod controller is what I remember most about the Dreamcast. I played with it in a video rental store.

Wow! That's an amazing collection!

Man your channel is absolutely the best. Love and good vibes from Costa Rica. Sega rules.

ah this is nostalgic, i used to love Sonic Adventure growing up, thanks Metal Jesus, i really wish the Dreamcast didn't die so quickly, it was really a fantastic system and i'm surprised SEGA only supported it for around 2 years (and then Sony repeated that with the PS Vita)

Well, when you piss off the retail chains that are supplying the hardware to the customers, it's difficult to remain in business. This was over 20 years ago when a huge chunk of people didn't yet have the internet at all, or if they did had slow connections. The bit about selling these online wasn't really very good as you couldn't demonstrate the graphics chip quality and performance very easily without having the unit there to see.

Very cool! Thank you for this video. I've been getting ready to start collecting for the Dreamcast and this video helps.

I bought my first Dreamcast in 2021 and it has become my fav console to collect for.

My favorite console of all time. Excellent video MJR, thanks for shining some light on this epic console!

I absolutely LOVE my blue StrikerDC Dreamcast controller!!! Great video! Would love to see more consoles in this style of video!!!

Love the hardware videos! Would love to see more. Especially around genuine and non-genuine accessories you have. Thanks MJR.

So I watched this video around 2am... It's 3:20am now and I'm back after scouring eBay for the perfect fight stick for me and my budget. Never thought I'd get this excited about a peripheral!?! Thank you for that inspiration Metal Jesus, you do indeed rock!

I I love your videos man, I'm young but I grew up on retro consoles, I come to your channel specifically for hidden gems of retro consoles and I've been thinking about the dreamcast for awhile, and I think I'm gonna go buy it tomorrow, thank you metal jesus!!!

What a great way to show off the hardware and then invite people to check out older content. Brilliant strategy to utilize the back catalogue and capitalize on long tail views. Well played good sir. 👍

I love the Dreamcast, it’s my all time fave console, it was way ahead of its time with its online features and VMUs etc. The Striker DC controllers are so comfortable compared to the original. So many great DC memories!

Great video - my favourite console , some great arcade ports

This is my all time favorite system and I started back in the atari days. The hdmi mod gives this a breath of life on modern tvs, although pricey Its well worth it. I already played my dreamcast plenty before the HDMI mod but now, its played even more. Fighting games on this system were arcade perfect comparisons. Looking forward to new games coming from devs, they're what has kept the system fresh in the last few years. Great video MJR!

Greetings from Venezuela, love your channel Metal Jesus 💙 so many memories and illusion your videos bring me 😋

Hey metal just wanna say I love your dedication to this channel, huge fan for many years now! I bought a sega Dreamcast last year and obsessed with the console, just wish some of the heavy hitter games were more affordable!

I was gifted the black Sega Sports Dreamcast for my 30th birthday. That and a boxed 5200 were the best bday gifts ever!

Thanks for sharing. I have fond memories of the Dreamcast. So many good games. Hardware way before it’s time.

Great video man!

"what should I be on the lookout for?" * maracas, in both official and third-party flavors, to play the very unique rhythm game Samba De Amigo; * microphone, which slots into one of the controller ports and opens up voice capabilities in the pet-raising sim weirdness of Seaman; * Ethernet adapter + modern matchmaking mods, to play OG DC online games against real people in the year 2022; * a mouse, so you can play Quake III Arena with your keyboard like a real pro gamer; * a light gun, if you don't mind connecting your DC to a CRT; * vibration pack, because what says "late '90s gaming" louder than an optional rumble pack; and maybe a DDR pad, if you want Kelsey to keep being your friend!

FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY THANKYOU MJR!!

Nice collection Jason!

Dreamcast and Metaljesus ? this is a perfect kombi ! You are so awesome !

I love this machine

Always wanted one of those black dreamcasts. Just looks so cool and unique imo

Love the Dreamcast!

Good video. I just ran into at south east game exchange. I love your videos. My brain just went blank when I went up to you a john LOL. You got me fully back into retro gaming and I thank you very much for that

Always Loved the dreamcast and I remember using the keyboard at my uncles house when I wasnt playing vigilante 8 2nd offense. I really think the VMU should make a comeback, a small device that parents can feel safe knowing their kids cant use the internet on it, but it allows kids to play mini games on the go to maybe unlock bonus items or content in the main game when plugged into the controller again. Heck make it have a touch screen to be used like a touch pad on PS controllers too. So much potential, its a shame companies don't really innovate anymore.

I've been searching for SeaMan special edition Dreamcast console for so many years. I don't think I'll ever get one but the dream is alive! Thumbs up!

Just got my hands on one and started collecting for it recently such a cool console i wish it stayed popular

Definitely getting one of those Retro Fighter controllers ! Great video!

always loved the design of the console simple but sleek

Hi Metal Jesus!! Both myself & my brother used to own a Dreamcast way back in 1999 & had a lot of games for it as well too including House of the Dead 2 with 2 dreamcast light guns which was pretty damn cool, also we both had quite a few other games including Power Stone 1 & 2, Resident Evil Code Veronica, Sonic Adventure, SoulCalibur & so much, Hope you have a wonderful weekend Metal Jesus!!😊😊😄😄👌👍👍👍👍

I'm gonna shout out that LP Custom every time! The Gibson Custom Shop logo staring at my soul like "yoooo-hooooo, over heeeeere!"

I have two Dreamcast, I bought one on launch day with Soul Calibur, and I was blown away. I bought a second one from Toys R Us for $50 when they announced they were being discontinued. It was a great system, with so many great racing games. Unfortunately, it only had a few RPG games and those came out too late to save the system.

I love the dreamcast. It's truly an amazing console that really stands as Sega's swan song after the repeated failures of the past had caught up to them. So many arcade classic, excellent ports, great sport games, and timeless originals, this is a great console that is beloved by many. love the variants of the console (love the sports black). Great video!!!

Such good Dreamcast memories. Never owned one as a kid but loved going to a friends house to play 2K and Jet Set Radio.

Nice! Need to get that divers addition console!

This makes me want to hunt down a Dreamcast now. It was such a great time to be a Sega fan. Great video!

One of my beloved Dreamcast items is the Japanese Chu Chu Rocket controller in transparent orange. Loved Chu Chu Rocket!

Uhuu! I love Dreamcast man, such a underrated console, great video!

I wanna dig deeper into the dreamcast. I got a console a few years ago and burnt a few games to play on it but feel I haven't fully explored it. Only had a friend who had it growing up.

I'd say you definitely have some good stuff there. Just a few suggestions would be the Dreamcast Jump Pack, & a Dreamcast Mouse. Both support a decent amount of games, & almost always make the game so much better / immersive.

Great video really enjoyed , hopefully i can check out a dreamcast soon

The Sega Dreamcast was definitely one of my favorite consoles. Zombie Revenge, ILLBleed, Blue Stinger, D2 and the list goes on.

I love those semi transparent custom joypads. I mean I especially love that style and colors from late 90s and early 2000s.

No one can compare to Metal Jesus! 👍🏽🔥

i definitely had that carrying case too. I don't have my original DC anymore, but I still have my working unit that I bought in 2008. It's plugged in next to my Switch OLED, Series S, and working Genesis

Sega bass fishing & crazy taxi always reminds me of sega Dreamcast and late 90s

Was awesome seeing you at southeast game exchange!

I got a fully modded dreamcast like your clear one but i threw the pink hello kitty shell on it. Was pricey but its my favorite looking console in my house and i love it! Even got a pink LED to stay on theme.

If you buy or have a Brooks Wingman for your Dreamcast, you can always plug in a USB keyboard into the device and it recognizes the Keyboard as a DC Keyboard. Typing of the Dead plays great with it.

🙏THX so much for this amazing video

Dreamcast had such a great run for such a short lifespan. So many original games from Sega.

I've got a total of 4. A version 0 (with the awesome metal tube/metal fan) Two version 1's (one stock, 1 modded with gdmu/rainbow LED power triangle) and my Sega Sports black. Such fun consoles!

I love the dreamcast. Great collection. If your going to use a wheel for racing games you pretty much have to sit at a desk/table or have a rig setup

you got it 👍 all metal Jesus rocks.

Wonderful collection, i was waiting for the neogeo system link cable for the neogeo pocket

Since I've been knee deep in DC since '99, the Official Arcade Stick and the MadCatz MC2 steering are considered the best of those specific controllers. Then and now. The problem with the MC2 wheel is are two fold. The springs inside the wheel which give the resistance and return to center can snap and render the wheel useless. There are no-known DIRECT replacement springs. Also, the mounting tabs that the springs attach to can also break off. My suggestion is to reinforce the mounting tabs with Gorilla Glue. Alternatively, you could get a PS4 to DC controller adapter and plug in your PS4 wheel since modern day wheels are light years better.

You can also connect the VMUs together to transfer data between them!

Impressive collection mjr 👍 my mother was amazed as well

Man, seeing those Dreamcast yellowing makes me feel old. LOL! Great vid, MJ!

Great video! Hardware and peripheral collecting is one of my main drives in retrogaming. I would suggest you get a twin stick (it plays great with XenoCrisis, apart from obviously Virtual On), a DreamPi for online gaming and a SegaKara add-on!

While on tour in late 99, the record label sent me a Dreamcast and I grabbed that bag for easy home/bus transfers. Love me some DC and MJ🤘🏻

Love the Dreamcast. Finding some of these games for the console can be challenging, especially games like Sonic Shuffle and Half-Life.

I love the Dreamcast you have a great Dreamcast collection😀😀😀

cool stuff 👍

Excellent collection. The DC is still one of my all-time favorite consoles. Other than my original console, which was a launch machine I had pre-ordered, all my other DC consoles came from local thrifts, when I could get a bare console for as low as $1.91. These days I have my original DC hooked up, though the drive died a few years back. I customized it to use a GDEmu clone, a Noctua fan mod and battery mod, and that is the one I use the most. I have one of my thrift store finds with just the battery mod so I can still use my discs when I feel like it, so that's beside of the original. I have a black Sega Sport variant; found that with the matching controller at the same thrift for I recall $5.95. That one originally worked, but since then the video has gone out of it, so I need to find a way to fix that. Other than one other that is currently non-functioning, I have a few controllers, some original and a couple of 3rd party variants, and the keyboard.
