The fact that Sega started making Dreamcasts as a promo item for companies that really had little to do with gaming in general just shows how screwed Sega was in the console market at that time. No wonder the Dreamcast was their last one. I know there's a lot of other reasons for Segas demise, but at the same time damn. :/

Limp Bizkit had some sort of promotion with Sega and there was an ad for the online service that had Fred Durst and was like "If you ever get your ass kicked, it was me on the other end of the line." So I suppose that can be official enough.

That last Dreamcast looks like a case swap. During the last year of the Dreamcasts life there were alternate cases available in several colors. I believe there might still be a few floating around. The idea was you would take your internals, swap them into the new case, and if you wanted too add LEDs or stickers for a custom look.

There probably is a private software collection somewhere. Found loads of supposedly never backed up backups on private servers and what not. Granted these mobile games weren't particularly easy to back up and also weren't particularly popular. You see the same with a lot of unpopular platforms and platforms that had only regional releases. PC98 for example is also poorly backed up even though it was a really popular platform, but only released in Japan aside from a single attempt at bringing it to the US in an early iteration and failing miserabel. Same with a lot of 70's and early 80's consoles that never left Europe.

I think the issue with them is they're basically a genre defined by shovelware. No one at the time thought they were of much value, they were basically the precursor to smartphone app games before they became more microtransaction than game, basically just small little derivative minigames you could play to pass the time on a commute. Some have been saved, I remember in a rebeltaxi video he showed some dexter's lab themed mobile games from that era, but most probably aren't worth preserving.

The RX-78 Dreamcast is meant to be a reference to Mobile Suit Gundam. To be specific, the OG RX-78-2 that the main character pilots. But, I can see where you thought it resembled Sonic.

I remember going to a Limp Bizkit concert 22? years ago (Godsmack and DMX were also there. 🤘) and for some reason, they hyped the hell out of Ultimate Fighting Championship for the Dreamcast right before Limp Bizkit came on. Being a Dreamcast fanatic at the time (still am really) I found this to be the highlight of the evening seeing as how the only group I liked was Godsmack. Anyway, word on the street was that Limp Bizkit had a habit of putting on poor performances and walking off. Which I thought it was people making stuff up. And I'll be damned if Fred Durst threw a fit and quit the set like 4 songs in and nearly started a riot. Guess people weren't mangling each other in the mosh pit enough for his liking. lol. Now I'm nearly 40. Getting old is fun.

I've never wanted a console more than I want that Fred Durst Dreamcast.

I proudly own a brand new never opened Super Black Dreamcast...according to some sources it's possible there were only 200 ever made! Why something as simple as a slick all-black Dreamcast was made with such insanely low numbers is odd I am not complaining 😎

The blue one at end is a reproduction shell and is custom. You can buy reproduction shells of clear colours online .

I'm starting to get into console repair and console reselling as a business so your vids definetly help me out on finding the good finds.

I could never get tired of seeing these. Awesome vid!!

Love your videos man. I enjoy how you just trail off towards the end. I'd say it's your staple quality. 1 Fred out of Durst. 👏

Surprised that there were only 50,000 or so of the Sports variant. I used to run a game store, and while those weren't very common, we did see a fair number of them.

The Dreamcasts signed by Fred Durst makes that one quip from the Sonic 2 movie even funnier.

The RX-78 Dreamcast is a reference to Amuro's mobile suit in Gundam 79 so I'd give it a 5/5 personally. Also the fact it's so rare is depressing.

the controller board was probably fine it was probably just a blown fuse that needed to be replaced. The original dreamcast didn't have a resettable and it commonly blew if you unplugged and plugged controllers in with the console powered on. Nowadays you can mod and replace it with a resettable fuse that is a huge quality of life improvement.

I used to harass my parents and grandparents to go shopping at Toys R Us just so that I could play on the Dreamcast display they had there. They had four consoles set up in a circle around a table with big CRT's hanging from the ceiling for each console and sometimes they even had a four-player game with all the consoles connected together. It was pretty sweet. I just liked playing Sonic. It's also the place where I got my crystal clear DMG Gameboy starter kit for Christmas, and then where I got Pokemon Red for another Christmas... Good times

Still have my Sega Dreamcast. It still works and I play it all the time.

This sure is one wacky world.

I remember there was a poster up in my school's library for a chance to win a Dreamcast. It had been put up a couple years before I came, and it was still there for the 6 years before I left in 2007. Knowing my school it probably stayed up for another 5 years+.

These videos and Whimsu's voice/way of talking are so entertaining to me. Call it my comfort food, if you will.

This video is absolutely excellent

Hey nice vid! Also, thanks for the credit for that tiny bit of footage, decent of you. I'd have commented sooner but honestly had no idea, just by chance I decided to Google my user name and this video was one of the first things that popped up, glad it did! Subbed.

Adam Koralik has a lot of content covering these. Always find it fascinating how long this consoles interest has lingered. I know I still have a few modded in storage. I’ll probably keep one for a time but the rest is going once I dig it all out. The divers unit is based off a character from the rhythm game with the La La chick. Thanks for the chuck mangione from King of the Hill clip. Hadn’t thought of the feel so good song in a while. I’m so baked.

Cool fact: sega net keyboards were repurposed as dreamcast keyboards by just putting a dreamcast sticker over the sega net sticker. I know this bc my sticker peeled up and there is a sega net sticker

That pink Sakura Wars dreamcast probably has it's own vaporwave album. Mad vibes in Toki Mem's Fire Embling cousin sim.

Considering the existence of a "spiral sticker" in _SoulCalibur VI,_ I've the sudden urge to create a Dreamcast version of Segata Sanshiro. 😏

I have an R7 dreamcast in box that I picked up when I visited Japan in 2018. Didn't know there were only 2000 made! It'll be worth keeping that in mint condition I think!

I have a pearl blue that my gf got me for my birthday. At first I thought it was neat, and then I checked how many were made. So uh, thanks!

Nice and informative. Good video. I will say that it was very annoying having these pointless star ratings after describing them though.

That chameleon paint dreamcast is badass

Beautiful. I'm in TEARS

Have you ever done a Gameboy Colour episode? Would be intrigued to see how many other variations there were!

I miss my Dreamcast. Back in the day I had the mouse, keyboard, and was signed up with the internet service through the console. Kinda cool.

This is my favorite console of all time. The rental console was $99.00 in hastings entertainment where I lived

the gameboy line has some pretty crazy ones

This is comfort content

I have the tank top from the sports edition. Found it at a goodwill.

10:11 - It's *probably* supposed to be Mobile Suit Gundam themed, as a tie-in to the Federation vs. Zeon arcade game whose home port originally came out first on the DC, but it lacks any sort of labeling to indicate such. No Gundam head decal, no Earth Federation logo, just a Dreamcast in Gundam colors.

Wish I never sold my Dreamcast & pawned my games for $50... The machine stopped working one day & this was teenage me, pre-internet & being able to fix devices.

Black actually looks great on DC and makes so much sense, but does somehow seem less early-2000s-y.

Fun fact: Irimajiri was a huge figure at Honda Motor. He is the most responsible for Honda's success in the United States. When he returned to Honda Japan after a long time in the United States, he felt disillusioned, and eventually went over to Sega.

Please do one of these types of videos about the N64, I know there were a tonne of special edition variants of it as well as special edition controllers and accessories, so it'd make for a very interesting video

I got the Sega Sports edition. Found it in the trash. Someone was throwing out their collection. Sadly, if there were any games/controllers/other accessories they tossed prior, the garbage trucks came RIGHT before they dropped off all their consoles at the public bin.
