A lot of great games on the Dreamcast, including my two favorite games of all time, Shenmue and Shenmue 2. I'll never forget that winter night me and my dad started Shenmue and were blown away from the intro! I've gone on to beat that game over a dozen times....and always want to go back.

It's funny to hear "childhood Dreamcast" for me. I was 24 when this came out. But, I still have just as much nostalgia for it as you do. This system is fantastic. And, I agree on the 3D printing crap. Thank goodness the kit you (and I) purchased has actual injection molded parts. Makes it look legit. It certainly plays legit. Enjoy dude. Subbed.

I LOVED the Dreamcast! I got one around launch and had a few games for it but I really started to get into it around 2001-2002 or so when the word was out they were discontinuing it and the games were dirt cheap. I'd like to recommend a few games you should try out. You mentioned you liked JRPGs so you have to try out Skies of Arcadia and Grandia II both are amazing RPGs. I'm sure you know about Shenmue, I loved it back in the day but I feel like you had to play it back then to really appreciate it just because it was such a new concept at the time to have that level of freedom in a game. Head Hunter is a great action game. It is a european exclusive. People like to compare it to Metal Gear Solid. I've never played MGS but Head Hunter is a game you should definitely try out. Crazy Taxi 2 is another must have DC game. There are of course many more great DC games but those are some of the top ones I'm thinking of atm. If you decided to play Grandia II or Skies of Arcadia you should do a video about it and give your thoughts. I think you will really enjoy them.

Try replacing the thermal pads on the dreamcast. theyre due for replacement by over 20 years. i had to do that on mine after i too thought it was the PSU with my MODE install when it kept crashing. turned out it was the thermal pads needing replaced which fixed it. i used the coolermaster branded thermal pads from amazon i dont remember the thickness off the top of my head.

4:49 sounds like me. I traded my dreamcast, armada, RE:CV, SF3, House of the Dead, SF3 3rd, 2 controllers, 1 keyboard, and a VMU, for enough trade credit to get used copies of Filter Short Bus, Papa Roach Infest, and a few other CDs that I no longer remember. I doubt Big Pun was one of them though.

16:30 It's funny, my pawpaw who mostly raised me, is a die hard LSU fan who took me to every LSU home game throughout my childhood. I loved tailgating and eating all of the food and hanging out with friends and family but hated going to the games themselves because I had no idea what was going on. It wasn't until someone bought me an NCAA video game before I knew the rules to football and started enjoying to watch the football as well. Knowing the rules allowed me to have some of my favorite memories in Tiger Stadium. It's funny because this video made me realize I am not the only one that video games made sports more interesting for. That which is kind of counterintuitive if you think about it. It makes me wonder who else started enjoying football due to video games.

Cool, all my 5 Dreamcast GD-ROMs aren't reading anymore (surprisingly even a 'Like New' US version, complete in box/CIB I bought that has only been used for for a week, a 24 hour week, making me think it's not the lens that conks out it's maybe the capacitor. This may be a blessing in disguise discovery if I may it work again with a branded cappacitor). I'll need a very modded Dreamcast that'll include the latest GDEMU and a built-in Behar Bros. Toro, similar to Adam Koralik's extremely modded Dreamcast but mine might be better. God bless.

One of my favorite games on Dreamcast was Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver. The story, the world and the lore were so amazing. The gameplay was pretty unique at the time. Later, when I played Ocarina Of Time on my New 3DS XL, I understood that Soul Reaver creators were inspired by 3D Zelda games, so it's basically a dark phantasy version of Zelda. Even Kain's image reminded me of Ganon. The corrupted world in hands of a tyrant also has many parallels with the bad future timeline of Zelda games. Though, Legacy of Kain series have much detailed story with deeper symbolism that makes you think that nothing is evil or good, and everything has its causes and consequences. A masterpiece. The Dreamcast version is considered to be the best port.

Easily one of the best consoles. It generated serious buzz, and blew me away. I think of it as the first modern console. I absolutely loved the VMU save system. If only the DC had more support from third party developers and was easier to develop for. In my opinion, if the DC had that support, it would have seriously contended with the PS2.
