Had Sonic Adventures and the little Controlleraddon to take care of the Chao on it. I found this groundbreaking back in the day lol

This was like years ago lol I was a teen and didn't know much about them not recently lol

My Dreamcast regret is that I waited until January 2001 to buy a Sega Sports Dreamcast, which happened to be only two weeks before Sega announced they were discontinuing it. I panicked and took it back to the retailer for a full refund (Walmart had a great refund policy back then). If I knew then what I knew now, I would've kept it and never traded it in. But I was a bit of a fanboy and wanted to back a console that was going to compete against Sony, so I eventually used my Dreamcast refund to pre-order the new console in town, Microsoft's Xbox. I don't regret buying an Xbox, because I loved that console. I just wish I had it alongside the Dreamcast. I shouldn't have traded in my Xbox either. So many regrets. lol

@@G360LIVE Trust me you never really do get over some of those missed opportunities or bad decisions. Back in the late 90s when there was still an abundance of PS1 games not to mention tons of retro stuff going for cheap I made a lot of bad decisions both selling and buying. To this day I can look back and see all the times I could have bought games that are worth literally hundreds of dollars now or sold games that are worth a small fortune now as well. However these days when I see something that I even have any inkling is going to be worth a good amount of money or just a good investment I'll either check it on my phone a little oe research and come back. Also I do frequent a lot of thrift shops as those are a straight up gold mine. (found a loose copy of jet set radio future for original Xbox for like a dollar)

That is what he is counting on to get those clickbait views. The titles are so dumb. I order a Dreamcast from Gamestop and this is what they sent me....a Dreamcast. Exactly what I ordered.

The point is to watch the quality of the refurbishment, which is usually quite bad and will break fairly quickly. Turns out they didn't refurbish this one at all, so they sold him a lie.

Yep and disliking

Continuing to support those con artists all for some views. He's definitely part of the problem.

And then when we watch it, and it's 20 minutes of mostly-pointless stuff like commenting on the bubble wrap with a high-energy voice as though that makes it interesting. I don't think I've ever watched an entire video by this guy. He's prolific and somehow keeps ending up in my feed, but he's incredibly bland.

Yeah that was my first thought with the clock too, I bought a refurb PS2 not long ago and the battery was dead. Those batteries have around a 10 year life, so after 20 years most will probably need changing. He also talks about soldering a new battery, which in my experience is a bad idea, it's 50/50 whether you'd overheat one of those coin cells and cause them to leak. It's a far better idea to just attach a proper holder.

I thought it had to do with third party controllers.

Or you can just bypass a fuse and say fuck it.

I still got my Dreamcast it reads CDs and I still got THPS2

I want that game!!

is really good

Matt is getting remastered

From what I can tell, the biggest issue with them is the optical drive. If that goes, it's going to be increasingly hard to source a replacement. But, on the brightside there are optical disc emulators out there and it's super easy to back up the discs for use, assuming the drive still works.

I’ve believed for a long while (past research etc.) that you can copy a game if you own the original copy. Maybe I’m wrong but even if I’m legally wrong; if you’ve purchased a game you should own the right to a copy of the code no matter the circumstance.

@@israelgottmein6925 I agree. I DO make my own backups from my PS1 and PS2 games, but I can't do it with my Dreamcast and GameCube games, as Dreamcast discs use a proprietary format called GD-ROM, and GameCube discs are encrypted, so I DO download those.

holy shit i was convinced he didn't make one to begin with cause he's acting like it's as easy as popping it in your pc and burning it to a blank CD which there are multiple reasons that isn't gonna work in the first place but i didn't even notice that LMAOO

@@bionyx6368 yeah exactly, he'd have to Rip it via the Dreamcast itself and then make a MIL-CD format version of it by Scrambling the image. no one does that so it's a bit dumb like he's acting like he totally did all that.

@@Irraptured how about you try *playing the game?*

@@Irraptured ooooooooookkkkaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy if you say so, but you are missing out. i have more nostalgia for the N64 as i never had one but i remember watching people play on it when i was at a summer daycare for a few years. i only got a dreamcast maybe 5 years ago and i had never experienced it or associated any of its games with it before then, and let me just say that if you want a good comparison between the two, it would be star wars episode 1 racer, i played it on the PC when i was a kid you i got treated to the best version, but its a very close second on the dreamcast, its only missing a few minor sound effects such as watto humming at the end of a race. what im saying, is that if you ever do get around to trying it out, (well first and foremost look for one with a yamaha laser) you wont be disappointed. its a great system with a distinct style to it and a great library of games.

That part was hilarious. He claims he has "a drive in the PC" that is somehow capable of backing up GD-roms then shows the boot screen with reviveDC!

@@HerecomestheCalavera He almost 100% doesn't, but there are drives you can put a custom firmware on that will rip these on pc.

I wonder if when that came up he thought "oh shit! I hope nobody notices that!" How stupid does he think we are anyways? Claiming he made a backup of a GD-rom using nothing but a standard PC drive.

Wtf dude you're like replying to everyone about this lol

@@goodstuffohhyeah lol I was bored. You must be to if you are reading all the comments and noticing I replied to so many!

Lol true dat

I just wrote a comment about this. LOL He just looked worse by lying.

I personally think red is nice, what i really want though was for the spiral to be Orange, which they almost did, because orange is the color of luck in japan, orange is also my favorite color.

@Ordinary GP A lot of the PAL Dreamcast games had a 50/60Hz selector so you could run them in 60Hz mode if your TV supported it. This was on a title-by-title basis though - and there were some annoying games that obviously had 60Hz support coded in because they worked at 60Hz with the VGA box connected, but didn't give you the option when connected to a TV.

@Ordinary GP You can also mod them to play out of region games, luckily our TV's here support RGB Scart (in the US you basically have to own a PVM/BVM to get that kind of quality) so the video quality will be much better for systems in Europe with the right hookups and RGB mods if needed. All our TV's made from the 90's onwards support a format called PAL60, which is what PS2, GC and a lot of PAL Dreamcast games support. But yeah with a regionfree mod you can basically play imports/backups from the US or Japan in 60Hz too, with a way better video signal and TV to boot ;)

I think it’s red in the US because of a company was gonna sue them for the same color logo or something

@@linkhatchet Yes but it's the other way around, in the Pal territories there was a company in Germany that already has the red/orange swirl logo so SEGA used the Blue color over there.

That's cool - I never knew about the Blue Swirl ! You got a hell of a deal 👍😎

You robbed him

Nice pun lol

Not true in canada dream cast sells for about 80 alone and crazy taxi is not a super cheap game either

Dreamcast sells for over 80 to 120 on most retro sales sites?

I would gladly pay $70 for a good dreamcast, its the best system ever built.

@@halo3odst I respect that, but I personally think the GameCube is the greatest piece of gaming hardware. I love the design of the console, games, and of course controller.

Often I find that when I pull a sticker off something, I can use it to pull up the residue as well unless the 'sticky' has turned to gluey crap like old electrical tape.

Who cares lol

I thought the same thing lmao. Its not the end of the world tho tbh

Assuming he did ever own a disc of the game, then ReviveDC could probably be considered an Authorized Agent under 17 U.S. Code § 117 in this particular situation, so it very well might be legal. I don't know if that's ever been formally adjudicated though, probably because honestly no one cares. No one is losing money from people playing Dreamcast games in 2020. Nor was anyone ever losing much money due to piracy, if you believe the massive amount of peer-reviewed scientific research that seems to show that people tend to only pirate things that they have no way of buying in the first place. In many cases, people go back and buy the thing later, or generate third party sales via word-of-mouth even if they can never afford to buy it, or if it's not available in their area. This is because most people have feelings. Only 1% of the general population are psychopaths who choose (in many cases, according to fMRI research) to turn off their feelings and take advantage of people just for kicks. However, according to research data, over 20% of CEOs are psychopaths, compared to 1% of everyone else. So they tend to be really paranoid and just assume everyone would do what they would do when it comes to questions of ethics (for example, bragging about your "winnings" while underpaid people are dying of heat stoke in your warehouses), and then project that narrative to all their flying monkeys to repeat to everyone, regardless of what real research actually says. You know there are some developers and musicians, myself included, who actually encourage piracy of their own work, and they still make money. Maybe it's just the people who make stuff so shitty that people DON'T want to go back and buy it later, after they get a chance to actually see it, who are spreading this nonsense.

i was looking to see if anyone said this. lol. Because you can't just put dreamcast games in a PC and back them up. Dreamcast games are not CD-roms they are GD-roms which is a disc format that can only be read by the dreamcast. the only way to actually make a backup is to do it through a network connection to a PC and it takes a LONG time. and on top of that cutscenes need to be shrunk in order for the GD-Rom data to fit on a CD-rom. kind of funny how he acts like you can just pop the disc in a pc and make a backup when you can't.

@@nighteel Yeah .... i was like wtf... this guy has no clue how to make a backup .... you can either use your solution with the network ... or rip to an sd card with the sd adapter from DC-swat or jj1odm ... or you can even use your pc ... if you can get a very old (and very rare) cd drive model and flash a custom firmware to it. Maybe it is also possible with the sega katana ...(don't know about that one, but seems possible)

@@nighteel I think this is why Broadband adapters were so sought after as they were obviously much faster at dumping games.

He tried a burned disc and it worked

You dont need a boot disk for the Dreamcast. It can read burned discs if its the version of the Dreamcast is made before Oct 2000

Pkrussl Yes...sadly.

@@_strayfer_ I was going to the exact same thing.

@@xenobestx8423 what do you mean "sadly"?? Gamestop is a great place to get a whole bunch of games. The only con stuff about gamestop is the refurbish games and system. I think if they have brand new system, they should be good.

It wasn't an 'underrated' system, but it died young because Sega couldn't get necessary parts for it in the volume they needed at a crucial point. 'Underrated' means 'reviews and opinions gave it a lesser estimation than it deserved' and that's not the case.

@@jamescarter3196 Thanks. Never knew it was a supply issue.

Too bad they got wrecked by Sony with the PS2.

KeroBero Nah they wrecked themselves. They could’ve been selling consoles alongside Sony and Nintendo if they had better practices. This console was initially successful but they didn’t have enough money to keep it alive.

Yep although my original battery still holds a charge, compared to the clock capacitor on my Original Xbox which was bulging and about to start leaking onto the mobo.

He dumped it himself and then for some bizarre reason added a custom boot screen with the ReviveDC logo.

@@HerecomestheCalavera Obviously.

Classic80sStuff He accidentally burnt his screen with the revivedc logo and then somehow fixed his tv in 0.5 seconds

@@nitinanku Sounds just as believable as him dumping the game himself!

He probably just downloaded an ISO but says he ripped it to make everyone shut up about piracy

@@Biskut Yup. It's a ReviveDC rip.

angelshide yeah, I was curious about his ripping of the disc as well because last I heard there was only a couple of drives that could do it otherwise you had to do it from the dreamcast via the broadband adapter or dream shell. Then I saw revive dreamcast project pop up in the bottom right... lol

You can burn Dreamcast games with a format file ending with name extension called .cdi to a blank CD-R and it just automatically runs.

Yeah, as soon as he said he was gonna "make a backup" and that he "has a disc drive and everything" I knew he was just gonna grab a copy off the internet.

He didn't back it up himself. I'm not sure why he made such a big deal about saying he did it himself. It even had a ReviveDC logo on the bootscreen!

To rip you been to use the Dreamcast modem or brodmand adapter and the Dreamcast with Homebrew

You can rip Dreamcast games with the right software

He didn't he just downloaded a copy. It even has the ReviveDC logo on the Sega boot screen!

He lied. He’s trying to make it seem like he’s more savvy then he is.

Oxyidation is why the colour is creamy

The laser might need a simple recalibration. You basically pop it open and twist a screw a half turn, test and repeat until it reads. I did the opposite to make mine read cdrw instead of CDR.

yeah i have a revision 0 dreamcast that doesn't read discs either, but mine was caused by a gear in the laser's arm warping and cracking, specifically, the gear that's right on the motor.

That's what happened to mine too

Unfortunately Sega used pretty cheap disk drives to keep the cost down after the Saturn's poor sales in the west due partially to it costing $100 more than the PS1. Despite its weird design the Saturn is built like a tank in comparison to most other consoles.

I think you’re correct. Seems like a lie instead of saying “downloading this ROM right now”.

It would still be twenty minutes of narration about the box, the receipt, and anything else he can milk for time by doting on the so-what details, like most of his videos. He'd probably show himself testing every single key individually.

@@jamescarter3196 Pretty much lol

Dominick Dworak yup. I was pissed when my son ordered a ps3 from gamestop and when we opened the box the console was all scuffed. It looked like shit.

You may hate GameStop for their business practices(so do I) but it would suck not having a store out there for exclusively games

Spawn is keeping them in business

And you think other retailers will be better? Once they go out of business expect price gouging.

And that battery... amazing it's still holding it's charge/data as it looks like the original! Mine died a few years ago...it was a pain to replace!

Steve's Stuff My original DC still has the factory CMOS battery and it holds a charge if I play it once or twice a week. If I let it sit for a long time then it drains eventually. It's obviously not holding voltage as well but surprisingly still works. It's probably only seen maybe 150 hours of playtime tops since new. I'm just now really getting in to the Dreamcast stuff. I got married and and a career and basically forgot about gaming to a degree. I'm loving this old system now.

Your country is small and has import laws. Why would they?

Isaac Delacroix ahh! A fellow berserk fan. I miss seeing the geysers of blood in berserk mode and the cool crossbow Gatling gun on his arm. Sorry bout your Dreamcast. Maybe this vid will help give you ideas to fix it.

Thank you for your interest. The console can not read the discs, but it can probably be repaired by calibrating the laser. Yes, I am a big fan of Berserk, since 1996 and I loved the game, especially the bright red eye, the fights and the cannon with endless ammunition.

Isaac Delacroix hope you can get that laser fixed my friend. That game will obviously be remembered by us both. Most memorable part? That crazy hard battle with the giant gargoyle. Least I think that’s what it was? 🤔

@@Chriscovelli1 In the burning village? That is Zodd the immortal. I'm sure you remember a gargoyle because its fur was made with a few polygons. Other times.
