It would all depend on the library. If it had full BC and good games on the way then yes.

It depends on what you mean by "remade." If they just did a visual remake like the chunky PS2 to the slim PS2 then I wouldn't be interested because I already own a Dreamcast. However, if they made a new Dreamcast like the transition from PSX to PS2 then I would be interested. If it had a full backwards compatable library and features some new exclusive games then I would probably buy it.

More Sonic Adventure? More Jet Grind Radio? More Shenmue? More Crazy Taxi? More Virtua Fighter? Another GOOD PSO Game? More NiGHTS? More Gunstar Heroes (In 2D, Not 3D!)? That = Yes.

More Sonic Riders? More Full Auto? More Sonic games like Sonic for PS3/360? That = No.

Sega did rerelease the DC in Japan a couple years ago. I prefer to rebuy a DC.

No, because

1) I already have one

2) I'm trying to sell the one I have because there aren't any games left that I want to play, and

3) Why would I shell out money for a NEW LAST-GEN system? If I'm going to buy a brand new console, it will be a PS3 or 360.

Now, if they came out with an all new 'Dreamcast 2' new-gen console, that would be a different story.

Sega does not need to remake the dreamcast. It was fine the way it was the first time. SEGA doesn't need to to anything HW related right now. They need to figure out how to make a decent Sonic game in 3D first...

Yes but now is a bad time. If it is just a new dreamcast with no new games, they don't need to bother. If it was a backwards compatible system with DVD player and ethernet port, and new games, it needs to be done when either Microsoft or Sony pull out, or wait until next gen. They already have franchises on different systems.

Absolutely. Sega has always made outstanding systems, they just blew it in other areas (marketing, timing, etc...).

Am I the only one aware of the Dreamcast R7? The R7 was a kind of Dreamcast remake. It was the Dreamcast with an ethernet adapter and (I believe) a DVD /GD-ROM drive.

Well... The question was worded pretty strange, so let me tell you what I would do.

The first Dreamcast I had was the special "Sega Sports" edition, complete with a "Sega Sports" controller. The console was black and it blended in nicely with my other black console lineup I had going at the game (Xbox, Playstation 2). But eventually it broke. I don't know how, but first it wouldn't read discs, then the controllers wouldn't respond on the main menu at all, and finally it just never started again (R.I.P old friend).

The second Dreamcast I bought was the standard Grey one, and it is still working. But after having a Dreamcast die like that it makes me think that eventually, the world will run out of Dreamcasts.

So, if Sega would make a few new Dreamcast's every now and then, I would buy one as soon as mine breaks (if it breaks).

I think I might. Sega seems to make the perfect type of games for me for some odd reason.

If it was the exact same system, I probably wouldn't since I already have one. But if they redesigned it a bit, I may buy one. The Dreamcast was a great system with great games.

The original Dreamcast captured a lot of unique titles. Shenmue, D2, Maken X, and so on.

I don't think it can be remade. It was too good the first time--no console, even a new or remade DC, can capture everything that system did.

I've gotten the most out of my Dreamcast, so no. If Sega re-entered the console market with a new machine though, it might be another story

No. I wouldn't. There is no chance in hell they would ever get any kind of 3rd party support. The DC had problems with this, and Sega is only in a tougher situation now then they were back then. A Dreamcast 2 would fail misserably.

Something really should be done about bringing back VMU's and having screens on controllers. That was really my favorite part about the DC. I am absolutely stunned that none of the next-gen machines used that idea. I thought for sure this is what the Wii controller was going to do back before they actually revealed it.
