On 9th September 1999, Sega released a new console to an excited public, the now legendary Dreamcast. Many would argue the first in Next Gen visuals, and online gaming, the Dreamcast was overtaken by Playstation2 but never forgotten. To this day, a decade on, it is still a powerful force in the gaming world. This is my tribute to the console and games, where a poet becomes fanboy.

Spot The Dreamcast
A typical view in my games room. Admittedly these consoles are tidier looking when I haven't got them displayed for photos.

Shenmue and Skies Of Arcadia HD
Ok so we know that Jet Set Radio HD is being released by Sega this summer but the Dreamcast goodness doesn't stop there because hints of *take a breath* Shenmue and Skies Of Arcadia have been aired.
"Yes, definitely. I can tell you what’s it gonna be. It’s gonna be Shenmue and Skies of Arcadia as well. So those are the most requested games. I can’t say yes or no but we may be working on them."
Those are the words of Ben Harborne, the Associate Brand Manager of Sega during an interview with Gamereactor UK.
How exciting is this news? Well to a Dreamcast/Shenmue fanboy like myself its extremely exciting. Im almost buzzing over the fact that this could be amazing! If they pull it off it WILL be stunning and I for one can't wait to go back to Dobuita HD. And Yougame of course.
And make no mistake, this is great news for all game fans. Younger gamers who never got to play these titles on the Dreamcast can finally see why DC veterans make so much fuss over it.
