In honor of the Dreamcast's 10th anniversary yesterday I went down to the basement and hugged my little console, smiled wistfully at the likes of Jet Grind Radio and Shenmue, looked at the little Virtual Memory Unit thingos you could put into your controller and take out to play Tamagotchi-like games if you had Sonic Adventure (and which beep like mad when their batteries are dead and you turn the console on.)

Then I went upstairs to play a rock and roll video game which would have been impossible ten years ago. I miss that little DC like nobody's business, but we've come quite a ways since.

ex had (or maybe still has) a dreamcast and we would play Soul Calibur and keep score. I always won! he tried playing Phantasy Star but that game was meant to be played online and it's such a shame that the dc's online gaming never took off.
