Sega-Sammy is your typical "make cash the bottom line" Corporation so Maybe they are waiting to release the Dreamcast 2 so that they can release Shenmue III exclusive for the DC2!! Then after selling well they would port them to the other consoles. Think about it, what better title than Shenmue 3 to launch their next console?<BR/><BR/>Or maybe not, but still why would they re-copyright hardware that is already copy righted? The good selling points of the Dreamcast have already been copied so why would they now try to protect it? Does anyone know how Sony did it before the PS2? <BR/><BR/>As pessimistic as I am I really do think Sega has something cooking although it might not be what we hope for, nevertheless something might really be on the works!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-55790653554664495412007-12-08T14:32:00.000+00:002007-12-08T14:32:00.000+00:00I just bought a SEGA game for the Atari 2600!

They would only be able to make some of their arcade games ports and maybe a few other ones, but they can't afford any of the most needed elements in building a new system and a new name.<BR/>About the "retro craze", I sadly don't think that people include Dreamcast into their definition of "retro-gaming".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-10111626629694314972007-12-07T02:09:00.000+00:002007-12-07T02:09:00.000+00:00It would be amazing if there was a Dreamcast 2, bu...It would be amazing if there was a Dreamcast 2, but it seems to late to launch a new system... and with the quality of games SEGA is makeing right now....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-25273439458096365562007-12-06T18:43:00.000+00:002007-12-06T18:43:00.000+00:00I doubt this is all just to protect the Dreamcast ...I doubt this is all just to protect the Dreamcast name.
