Anyone who tunes into our award-winning* podcast, BLAST PROCESSING should know that many of us here at Pixel Verdict are dyed-in-the-wool fans of the Sega Dreamcast. It may have had a short shelf life, but it holds a high place of honor on our video game nostalgia shrine. If nothing else, it goes to show how a well-made console with fantastic games can still fail in the marketplace, for reasons beyond pure system excellence.
