Dreamcast 2 9/9/09?

Dreamcast was released in North America on 9/9/99, so do you think Sega will announce a new console for 9/9/09? Maybe we'll hear something during the summer.

Anyway, it would be a smart move for Sega, considering Sony is on the backburner, and Microsoft is starting to lose sales.

Would never happen. Too many economic issues in the world today and SEGA's recent releases have all been.... lackluster. Besides, being a late fourth entrant into the console race would be a disaster.hellhund

thats sounds about right

Smart? As in, there's not enough consoles on the market... adding a new one is smart?

When did Dreamcast become some sort of messiah, that's prophesied to make a divine second coming? :|AdobeArtist

Says a guy who started gaming in 1995...Probably never even held a Genesis controller. The Dreamcast had better games than the Ps2, like Powestone and RE:CV, Soul Calibur, and alot others too long to list. The only appeal to the Ps2 is GoW.

WTF? MS is gaining sales and PS3 is gonna pick up

another dreamcast would just fail like the first xbox, wii, & ps3 are already well established

Not likely since they seem to be doing ok with their game development. Valkyria chronicles and their other various titles are pretty good at least imo.

However they likely would not be able to compete with the big 3 console makers even next gen.

What exclusive games would they get ? Sonic games are on multipatform and its all around garbage so sega would be wasting money by creating another flop console.Gh0st_Of_0nyx

Maybe a Tails Adventure Game. Or they can pick up the Powestone Series and that'll revive it.

The dreamcast is vastly overrated. I would like to see a new sega console, but there are already too many models on the market. 3 is enough.

Furthermore, I highly doubt it would be called "dreamcast 2." The dreamcast was as much a failure to them as the saturn, especially when it was the system that lost them their play in the console market.

Code Veronica is on the PS2 just like many other Dreamcast games are on other systems. This is coming from someone who owns a dreamcast and a saturn.

I hope this helps:

Sega denied rumors that they would be getting back into hardware manufacturing of videogame consoles.

Senior Sega US spokesman Charlie Scibetta clarified the situation by explain that the company "has no plans to get back into the console business because it's very happy being a platform agnostic company."

it wouldnt be very smart this gen as its pretty set in stone. next gen would be better for a dreamcast 2

plus sega would need to improve their games, especially Sonic

If they were going to do anything they'd have made a portable based on the DC hardware about 7 years ago.

Ain't no console coming out of Sega now, MS took their crown and ran with it.

No, SEGA are almost dead, a console from them is bad..EuropeGangsta

It's sorta already launched in the form of a 360. :P

I remember picking up my DC on 9-9-99 - sweet system and a unfortunate end.

omg!!! u sat on down figured it out what sega was all about wow u know what ur really smart!!!:lol:sega's systems have been being released nobody has realized it but u and i did! i u look at the jumbo pack for the original xbox the 2 games that come with it are sega games! sega has been maknig games for other systems but really sega and microsoft made the xbox! one day one of the companies will realize it! i hope this theory is true that would be awesome!!

If the Dreamcast 2 is announced to release at 9/9/09, there'll be a second great flood ... except this time, the waters will be white.Deiuos

That's the stupidest thing i have heard in a while.

Wouldn't be a good idea and they aren't stupid enough to do it. Back when Isao Okawa was alive, when Sega failed he would bail them out. He's dead now. If Sega tries to make another console their share holders will pull the rug from under them before they even get done with saying what the name of the new console is.

I'd be all over a Dreamcast 2 if it meant finally getting aSkies of Arcadia sequel...

if only :(

lol bump

If there was a new Dreamcast coming, we would have heard actual rumors about it. It would be a heroic effort to keep a major console launch completely quiet up until the month of its release. Or announcement, whatever is supposed to happen.

That's beside the fact that it would be one of the dumbest moves in the history of the video game industry.
