There were lines almost out the door of guys wanting to play it. They were putting quarters up for the next game, like they were at the arcade. Dreamcast was a phenomenon for about 3 years.

Yeah those were some pretty big triggers for anyone with epilepsy. Watching on my phone I physically turned it away because the flashing just gave me a small headache.
The Xperia Play did actually come to the US through Verizon. I personally owned one when it came out. It was a awesome portable emulation machine at the time.
I legit always get the Gizmondo and Ngage confused. I always think the Ngage was also involved with the mob, and the Gizmondo was a cellphone. They're both trash, so at least I remember that.
The Virtual Boy was garbage but the Dreamcast seemed ok. I personally still preferred the Saturn myself, but that's more nostalgia and a handful of games.
They also released the Saturn afterward and I believe that sold even worse, so it wasn't the Dreamcast alone that led to their problems. I loved my Dreamcast. I still have it and about half the games I bought for it back then.
@@collin1240 Saturn came before the Dreamcast. The Saturn also played a large role in Sega losing a lot of good will. Sega of Japan was also very stubborn and wouldn't listen when people from Sega of America were essentially telling them their ideas sucked and it would destroy their PR.
The PS2 was way overhyped in comparison, all those saying it was a supercomputer and such. All things considered, the DC could still do some things better than PS2, and developers only acknowledged that once they had to deal with PS2's exotic architecture.
The Dreamcast, and the Saturn for that matter, felt like Sega resting on their laurels, getting their fanbase to sell the consoles rather than themselves. They underestimated the marketing of Sony, then Microsoft
Dreamcast flopped because Sega jerked around the customers with add-ons to extend the life of the Genesis and an all in 1 that just combined all that into 1 system released as a stop gap at the cost of a new system. Similarly the Wii U wasn't over hyped but failed because of bad marketing not creating any hype. If they had chosen a better name and marketed it then they would have sold more units.
I used to work in the electronics department in one of the big retail stores when the ps4 , x box one and wii u came out. when the ps4 and x box one were released there was a long line to purchase one before the store even opened up. when the wii u came out there were only 6 people waiting outside in line and we had some left over at the end of the day...
I remember the launch titles for the Wii U being so lackluster while PS4 and Xbox One had quite a few really good games like DR3, FM5 for the xbox one and killzone for the PS4.
I had a Nokia 3300 growing up. Released just before the nGage. It was the perfect size, the controls were comfortable. I had so much fun gaming on it. Memory was limited though, but I miss that phone. Closest thing to a game phone that mostly worked.
I still have Dreamcast in my bedroom with over dozen games and fish rod hooked up to an old plasma tv I found for $40 bucks at a thrift store that cost 7k new back in 04’
Due to European PS1 running in 50 hz the games are a bit slower. But they are converted to work with that, so if you don't do a direct comparison, you won't realize it. For their retro box Sony used some open source emulator (without telling anybody) and iso games (as far as I know they even downloaded those iso games from the internet), which led to some mayor compatibility issues.

Does Germany run at 60hz? Though you Americans always use a lower resolution for some reason.. You have 480p back then whilst we rock up to 576p lol just 50Hz instead of 60 so some things ran a little 'slower' but higher resolution...weird, i know! But that's what happens when developers are either lazy or the hardware is cheapened by using the mains cycle as the clock sync/source - make the timing dependent on that, less hardware and code but if you increase the external (or internal clock) like when i've overclocked a Megadrive and an N64, games can run too fast or sometimes crash and not run at all just due to loss of sync (they can't run asynchronously!) which is a similar reason why 'light guns' don't work on modern screens, the CRTs are synced to the same frequency/refresh rate as the video signal so the gun can 'see' where its looking relative to the scan position!
I know I loved the Dreamcast myself. I liked how it was 60 FPS in most games, which was revolutionary at the time. It also introduced me to the world of emulators, which dramatically expanded the game library for it. You could also just burn games on a DVD for free and play them without having to mod the console.
The funniest thing about the N-Gage is how you actually take calls on it. My friend had it and he returned it within a week because people wouldn’t stop taking the piss out of him.
As soon as I first heard of the Wii U my first thought was "Why is Nintendo repeating Sega mistakes with the Dreamcast?" Instead of an overpriced memory card that basically had crappy flip phone games they added a freaking tablet as the main way to play the videogame console! That just made the Wii U too expensive for something that was less powerful that the competition.
You do realize that people leave corporations every single day people leave Sony on a weekly basis people leave Microsoft corporation on a weekly basis your point is moot. Do you realize that every division under the Sony brand is bleeding money and none of them make money are profits except for PlayStation division do you also realize that Sony sold their two corporate buildings Sony building one in Sony building two last year they don't even own their own properties anymore do you realize how poor for cash they actually are other than the fact that they're overinflated stock is holding them up do you also realize that Google makes more money in a single week vs Sony does in a year , do you also realize that they are currently selling all the PlayStation 5s at a loss .. stadia is not going anywhere anytime soon they're just getting started sure maybe they realize that trying to build their own studio before building a audience was maybe a mistake maybe they took a lesson from Amazon spending billions of dollars trying to create their own games and both of them were a huge flop doesn't mean that they're done playing the game I know one things for certain this fall when the stock market crashes Sony's going to run out of cash so fast it's not going to even be funny then we'll see how well they do distributing their units at a loss hold on to your hat The whole industry's going to get turned upside down over the next five years we'll see who comes out smiling in the end.. 🍻
@@monkeyboy9896 holy shit that was one the longest run-on sentences I've ever attempted to read. I couldn't even make it halfway through your jibberish.
That was basically the point. Nintendo was really excited and pushing for it but it never hit audiences right. Like Falcon said, a lot thought it was some kind of Wii upgrade. I myself was guilty of that and thought that it was just a tablet for your Wii.
@@nekowatt2402 As someone that worked in gamestop during the console generation with the WiiU, XBone, and PS4 I had way more customer's that didn't know what a WiiU was than ones that did. Even after explaining what it was some customers would tell me, "but I don't have a wii". Even the demo stations the store received only showed the tablet controller prominently, and not the console itself. I'll never forget the day, a customer get into an argument with me when I told them that the tablet was just a controller for a console and that yes you can play some games on it, but you need the console. But no they said that I didn't know what I was talking about and that they were able to play games on the tablet and they weren't going to be upsold by shitty gamestop. I told them that unfortunately we were all sold out of the tablet, and to try bestbuy. Most hilarious negative survey I ever got.
@@lumiereeclair damn that's shitty. It's one thing to be uninformed but it's a whole different world to be uninformed and ignorant. I guess the problem's a combination of a lot of things. During the Wii era Nintendo decided to shift their audience to the general public which worked really well for the Wii, but that also meant that part of the crowd are people who aren't familiar with the gaming industry (such as the fact that new consoles are made per generation) so when the WiiU came out a huge part of Nintendo's market are definitely confused. Then WiiU ain't really different from the Wii, like it's literally just the tablet and a couple new features so of course that will also cause confusion when it comes to advertising it. Another one would be the name itself, WiiU, that does not sound like a new and different console at all and just sounds confusing when it comes to selling it, kinda like the XBoxes. I remember my uncle being super confused with the XBox family bcos of their names. XBox, XBox 360, XBox One and now XBox Series X, like how can a non-tech savvy parent/guardian figure that out? Especially when all the kid says is "I want an XBox."
@@nekowatt2402 Now imagine this, but with the gamestop staff just as uninformed and ignorant. That's the winning combination that has gamestop in it's current financial situation. There should be a textbook that describes all the strategies and practices that gamestop uses as a warning of how NOT to run a successful business. I'm soo glad I don't work at gamestop anymore, the store I used to work at closed down not long after I left.
I think that is part of the problem, the other part of the problem is it got a stupid name that confused people and didn't get the hype it needed. they should have went with something corny like "Super Wii" or "Wii 2" or something else that would have left no confusion as to what that system actually was.
The dreamcast was fucking awesome, still have mine from when I was a kid. Genuinely think it was just ahead of it's time and that's why it never did well
Man, I loved the Dreamcast! Got it day one, and still to this day is one of my favorites. I also,enjoyed getting a good buzz and playing the Virtual Boy. Galactic Pinball, and Red Alarm were the ones I enjoyed the most.
Absolutely wild how Cyberpunk 2077 arguably ran the best on Stadia (or highest end PC) all the way back at launch, and you still have da game reporters saying US internet isn't ready for it.
I had N-Gage when I was in Elementary school and everyone thought I was the coolest kid in school because I was the only one who had it. It took me some time to get used to it but after a while I got used to it. Also for the ps classic, when I got it for my birthday it felt laggy and I had the same question if it was that laggy with the original ps1 back then. I plugged my old ps1 console and it was running the games better than the ps classic without that lag. I still use sometimes the ps classic for a quick nostalgia run after i modded and my 6 year old son loves it. He is reminding me when I was in his age playing the ps1 with the same excitment and happiness.
Stadia is definitely a fail. Only those can use it, who had a good internet connection, but those usually has a fair PC too, so they don't really need the Stadia for gaming. Those who has a crap PC, and can get the benefit from Stadia, also has a slower/basic internet, which is not enough fast for Stadia, it will be extremly laggy, and unplayable on that, this is why it's a huge fail, because the primary targeted persons can't use it.

i was one of those people who thought the Wii U was an Add-on. also, i miss the Dreamcast and i honestly wish it did well. the games were amazinng. hell, i spent HOURS on that damn Demo Disc😂😂
Anyone who owned a WiiU or a Dreamcast would disagree with this. The Dremcast was ahead of its time and had the superior versions of the best titles of the time. The WiiU was great. I'd argue it was better than the Switch in many ways. For a failed console its odd that the best selling games on the Switch are mainly WiiU ports.
Xperia Play was released in the United States. I got it from a Costco in CA but I had to keep returning it for a new one because each one would have some kind of QC issue like buttons being stuck or the hinge going loose.
What about the “VR Lense” we had in the late 90’s. The one that went over one eye and then burned the crap out of your retina. I just remember trying to play Wario and it was not a good time
I picked up the Xperia Play second hand years ago when my old Blackberry died - it was actually a really cool phone and worked as a really good emulation phone. The fact I could text or call for business and then just slide up the phone to use (semi-decent) controls was brilliant. What did suck though was the ribbon connector for it eventually failing. I honestly think if they released a modern version it would do a lot better now.
One of the things about the Ouya was that it didn't have the Google Play store on there. You thus couldn't play other Android games that you owned on it. Some of the same games might have been on there, but you'd need to buy them again, which felt like they were trying to milk you for more money.
Mine not so much plus it's a lie the ps1 never failed everyone who had one liked it stadia failed because it was garbage from the get go plus people who say the ps1 failed forgot that it was from the nineties era the only instance where it isn't wrong to say that the ps1 did fail is if one is talking about the hdmi powered version one the ps1 with the pre installed games and stuff but everyone loved the oem ps1
I owned an experia play. It was 100 percent released in the US. "The US launch was officially scheduled for Spring 2011, and while a time frame of mid-April was initially given,[34] the device's launch was pushed back to May 26."
Hi, European here. I think the reason why games run at 50hz is because where you guys TV displays 480 lines of information at the full 60fps. Our screens were more interlaced and displays at 576 but the trade off is that we are 10 fps slower.
As a Swede, I approve of this content. Next time, hook me up! I'll help with all swedish-related matters! 🤣. Edit: I've had no issue with PS1 games running like butt.
They worked since all of europe used 50hz, plugging it into to a new tv we can tell it’s bad. Just remember importing games like RE2 and Tekken3 since they tan better.
@@Persbun over here in the US if it doesn't refresh at 60Htz it tends to run like ass. The only way to fix that on the PS Classic is to hack the thing. All the more reason I try not to import consoles from Europe (nothing against you guys, but they aren't compatible with our TVs)
i feel really sorry for the WiiU but for me its definetely in the top 10 of consoles, right next to the Wii, nintendo 3DS and Switch. Might be aswell better than the PS5 and Xbox Series X due to the horrible supply, availability and lack of games of current generation consoles, really.
If Nokia had made a commercial for the N Gage that had a song called "Side Talking" based on the Bee Gees "Jive Talking" I'm sure it would have sold millions
Plz note: we're not talking about THE original PS1, we're talking about the HDMI plastic box nostalgia product Sony released 2 years ago.
Still looks pretty similar to the og PlayStation though, maybe change your thumbnail ?
I am from Europe and 50hz with enormous borders was that bad we had to mod the psx to run NTSC format

The Virtual Boy was garbage but the Dreamcast seemed ok. I personally still preferred the Saturn myself, but that's more nostalgia and a handful of games.
Nice
The Dreamcast was never over hyped, hardly anyone cares to have one after the Saturn
The Dreamcast was against the PS2. I don’t think anyone thought that it would survive.
in my opinion the DreamCast was an amazing console and it saddens me that it died so fast
They also released the Saturn afterward and I believe that sold even worse, so it wasn't the Dreamcast alone that led to their problems. I loved my Dreamcast. I still have it and about half the games I bought for it back then.
@@collin1240 Saturn came before the Dreamcast. The Saturn also played a large role in Sega losing a lot of good will.
Sega of Japan was also very stubborn and wouldn't listen when people from Sega of America were essentially telling them their ideas sucked and it would destroy their PR.
It was for me the best console at that time. I had all of the recent models then it stood solo at the top
Dreamcast wasn’t overhyped, guys. It was just under supported. Fantastic console.
The PS2 was way overhyped in comparison, all those saying it was a supercomputer and such.
All things considered, the DC could still do some things better than PS2, and developers only acknowledged that once they had to deal with PS2's exotic architecture.
@dadbot a7m9 as a cheap DVD player and GTA LOL
@@dovic2293 exactly it was bought mostly for its DVD player
The Dreamcast, and the Saturn for that matter, felt like Sega resting on their laurels, getting their fanbase to sell the consoles rather than themselves. They underestimated the marketing of Sony, then Microsoft
Dreamcast flopped because Sega jerked around the customers with add-ons to extend the life of the Genesis and an all in 1 that just combined all that into 1 system released as a stop gap at the cost of a new system.
Similarly the Wii U wasn't over hyped but failed because of bad marketing not creating any hype. If they had chosen a better name and marketed it then they would have sold more units.
I used to work in the electronics department in one of the big retail stores when the ps4 , x box one and wii u came out. when the ps4 and x box one were released there was a long line to purchase one before the store even opened up. when the wii u came out there were only 6 people waiting outside in line and we had some left over at the end of the day...
That says a lot right there
I remember the launch titles for the Wii U being so lackluster while PS4 and Xbox One had quite a few really good games like DR3, FM5 for the xbox one and killzone for the PS4.
I had a Nokia 3300 growing up. Released just before the nGage. It was the perfect size, the controls were comfortable. I had so much fun gaming on it. Memory was limited though, but I miss that phone. Closest thing to a game phone that mostly worked.
I still have Dreamcast in my bedroom with over dozen games and fish rod hooked up to an old plasma tv I found for $40 bucks at a thrift store that cost 7k new back in 04’
On my way to get the Kfc console...
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
Fuck You Wendy’s I Just Want My KFC Console!
I have played a PS1 in America and Germany and they seemed the same to me.
Due to European PS1 running in 50 hz the games are a bit slower. But they are converted to work with that, so if you don't do a direct comparison, you won't realize it. For their retro box Sony used some open source emulator (without telling anybody) and iso games (as far as I know they even downloaded those iso games from the internet), which led to some mayor compatibility issues.
great video man you right thought virtue boy was going to make a deep impact like in future they should less down the redness and make more games i remember i was at k mart or zellers electonic dempartment test at it out for demo it was so bad lol like ps4 vr but that little better not enough games for thAT FORMARGEEEE it echoes thew ages lol be safe
Does Germany run at 60hz? Though you Americans always use a lower resolution for some reason.. You have 480p back then whilst we rock up to 576p lol just 50Hz instead of 60 so some things ran a little 'slower' but higher resolution...weird, i know! But that's what happens when developers are either lazy or the hardware is cheapened by using the mains cycle as the clock sync/source - make the timing dependent on that, less hardware and code but if you increase the external (or internal clock) like when i've overclocked a Megadrive and an N64, games can run too fast or sometimes crash and not run at all just due to loss of sync (they can't run asynchronously!) which is a similar reason why 'light guns' don't work on modern screens, the CRTs are synced to the same frequency/refresh rate as the video signal so the gun can 'see' where its looking relative to the scan position!
“Sometimes you gotta fall while walking to run really good”
-Gameranx 2021
Dreamcast was a great system with some really great games and was really ahead of its time. So sad that it failed.
I know I loved the Dreamcast myself. I liked how it was 60 FPS in most games, which was revolutionary at the time. It also introduced me to the world of emulators, which dramatically expanded the game library for it. You could also just burn games on a DVD for free and play them without having to mod the console.
The funniest thing about the N-Gage is how you actually take calls on it. My friend had it and he returned it within a week because people wouldn’t stop taking the piss out of him.
the Dreamcast was in no way "over hyped". it was the one time pearl clutchers were right about piracy killing a console.
"Sometimes you gotta fall while walking in order to run really good"
As soon as I first heard of the Wii U my first thought was "Why is Nintendo repeating Sega mistakes with the Dreamcast?"
Instead of an overpriced memory card that basically had crappy flip phone games they added a freaking tablet as the main way to play the videogame console! That just made the Wii U too expensive for something that was less powerful that the competition.
Falcon was really having fun with the part about mobsters 😆
I feel like the Dreamcast was underhyped and that's literally why it failed.
PS2 and gamecube is the main reason

I don't actually remember the Wii U being hyped all that much.
That was basically the point. Nintendo was really excited and pushing for it but it never hit audiences right. Like Falcon said, a lot thought it was some kind of Wii upgrade. I myself was guilty of that and thought that it was just a tablet for your Wii.
@@nekowatt2402 As someone that worked in gamestop during the console generation with the WiiU, XBone, and PS4 I had way more customer's that didn't know what a WiiU was than ones that did. Even after explaining what it was some customers would tell me, "but I don't have a wii". Even the demo stations the store received only showed the tablet controller prominently, and not the console itself. I'll never forget the day, a customer get into an argument with me when I told them that the tablet was just a controller for a console and that yes you can play some games on it, but you need the console. But no they said that I didn't know what I was talking about and that they were able to play games on the tablet and they weren't going to be upsold by shitty gamestop. I told them that unfortunately we were all sold out of the tablet, and to try bestbuy. Most hilarious negative survey I ever got.
@@lumiereeclair damn that's shitty. It's one thing to be uninformed but it's a whole different world to be uninformed and ignorant.
I guess the problem's a combination of a lot of things. During the Wii era Nintendo decided to shift their audience to the general public which worked really well for the Wii, but that also meant that part of the crowd are people who aren't familiar with the gaming industry (such as the fact that new consoles are made per generation) so when the WiiU came out a huge part of Nintendo's market are definitely confused. Then WiiU ain't really different from the Wii, like it's literally just the tablet and a couple new features so of course that will also cause confusion when it comes to advertising it.
Another one would be the name itself, WiiU, that does not sound like a new and different console at all and just sounds confusing when it comes to selling it, kinda like the XBoxes. I remember my uncle being super confused with the XBox family bcos of their names. XBox, XBox 360, XBox One and now XBox Series X, like how can a non-tech savvy parent/guardian figure that out? Especially when all the kid says is "I want an XBox."
@@nekowatt2402 Now imagine this, but with the gamestop staff just as uninformed and ignorant. That's the winning combination that has gamestop in it's current financial situation. There should be a textbook that describes all the strategies and practices that gamestop uses as a warning of how NOT to run a successful business. I'm soo glad I don't work at gamestop anymore, the store I used to work at closed down not long after I left.
I think that is part of the problem, the other part of the problem is it got a stupid name that confused people and didn't get the hype it needed. they should have went with something corny like "Super Wii" or "Wii 2" or something else that would have left no confusion as to what that system actually was.

I had N-Gage when I was in Elementary school and everyone thought I was the coolest kid in school because I was the only one who had it. It took me some time to get used to it but after a while I got used to it. Also for the ps classic, when I got it for my birthday it felt laggy and I had the same question if it was that laggy with the original ps1 back then. I plugged my old ps1 console and it was running the games better than the ps classic without that lag. I still use sometimes the ps classic for a quick nostalgia run after i modded and my 6 year old son loves it. He is reminding me when I was in his age playing the ps1 with the same excitment and happiness.
Stadia is still there and works perfectly fine for me. I agree it's overhyped before releasing but it definitely did not fail.
Nsh...stadias a hole in the floor that Google is throwing money into
Stadia is definitely a fail. Only those can use it, who had a good internet connection, but those usually has a fair PC too, so they don't really need the Stadia for gaming. Those who has a crap PC, and can get the benefit from Stadia, also has a slower/basic internet, which is not enough fast for Stadia, it will be extremly laggy, and unplayable on that, this is why it's a huge fail, because the primary targeted persons can't use it.

Anyone who owned a WiiU or a Dreamcast would disagree with this. The Dremcast was ahead of its time and had the superior versions of the best titles of the time. The WiiU was great. I'd argue it was better than the Switch in many ways. For a failed console its odd that the best selling games on the Switch are mainly WiiU ports.
Xperia Play was released in the United States. I got it from a Costco in CA but I had to keep returning it for a new one because each one would have some kind of QC issue like buttons being stuck or the hinge going loose.

What about the “VR Lense” we had in the late 90’s. The one that went over one eye and then burned the crap out of your retina. I just remember trying to play Wario and it was not a good time
You mean the R-Zone?
I picked up the Xperia Play second hand years ago when my old Blackberry died - it was actually a really cool phone and worked as a really good emulation phone. The fact I could text or call for business and then just slide up the phone to use (semi-decent) controls was brilliant.
What did suck though was the ribbon connector for it eventually failing. I honestly think if they released a modern version it would do a lot better now.
Modern version is just a regular smart phone.
One of the things about the Ouya was that it didn't have the Google Play store on there. You thus couldn't play other Android games that you owned on it. Some of the same games might have been on there, but you'd need to buy them again, which felt like they were trying to milk you for more money.

Hi, European here. I think the reason why games run at 50hz is because where you guys TV displays 480 lines of information at the full 60fps. Our screens were more interlaced and displays at 576 but the trade off is that we are 10 fps slower.
I wouldn't say the WII U was "overhyped" they didn't market that like the frickin N64 or WII and say it was gonna change gaming
