/vr/ - Retro Games

Why don’t Sega called it RealityTrash?

It’s a magical device that broad(cast)s (dream)s to your TV.

based

Because when you see it you turn 360 degrees and sleepwalk away.

>>5976101
Sega Bass Fishing was originally the launch title

I think Kenji Eno came up with the name

>>5976101
It's like a dreamcatcher, but instead of catching them, it cast Sega's dreams of financial success into the trash.

>>5976101
Who knows where names come from, they just appear

To put focus on its online features

>It’s a magical device that broadss to your TV.

>>5976101
I dunno but it sure is pleasant to listen to.
>(The) Dream (has been) cast(ed)

>>5976101
Because all of Sega's remaining Dreams and hopes were Casted away by this thing.

>>5976101
>Why did Sega call it the "Dreamcast"?
Because when you see it you'll dream about casting it into the trash

>>5976101
Because Katana was too weeb.

>>5977341

>>5979757
these aren't funny

>>5979804
And /vr/ isn't your personal goldmine, so you'll have to fuck off back to /r/4chan empty handed.

>>5976101
Because of the fishing games and overall marine theme in its promotional materials. It's not even a joke, it was one of the main points of the console, arcade, action and adventure stuff was secondary to all the Japanese-specific shit like fishing and horse racing.

>>5976101
How would anyone here know the answer to that? Couldn't you google something so bizarrely obscure and specific?

Madcatz

It's a companion to Sega's Dreamcatch accessory that lets you play vidya in your sleep

cant believe im reddit for calling unfunny jokes unfunny. based and redpilled, kekfrens

>>5981838
>8 hours of non-stop uninterrupted vidya
sounds litty

>>5976127
I appreciate the joke, but it probably sounded better in your head

>>5977727

FAWWWWWWWWKKK YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEA!

>>5976101
Because it's like a cast mold for your dream games. Dream games like:

>that one grind-heavy jrpg
>that other gring-heavy jrpg
>that one grind-heavy jrpg that took a long time to get fun
>that one grind-heavy jrpg with an open ending
>that one grind-heavy jrpg that no one played
>that other grind-heavy jrpg
>oh yeah, and that game about looking for sailors

Because Sega was at death throes, and that console was the answer to bring Sega back to rule. It was as if it fell from the heavens... or Dreamcast.

In case your English is rusted, 'cast' also means made or fell.

ITT: cringe

It cast Sega's dreams into the garbage.

>>5983085
You forgot Skies of Arcadia.

I'm sure i read in a mag at the time that it was because the people involved in it's creation were a dream cast (ie the best people for the job)

Is there still a place with every .cdi? I'm looking specifically for Vermilion Desert and can only find some weird link to Yandex

>>5985805
what weird link would that be?

>>5977478
>broad ass

>>5979804
Truth hurts, anon.

>>5976101
Because it is so boring it is putting you to sleep and dream of a better console like the playstation 2

only sonyggers hate this console.
the ps2 will never be retro.

>>5986621
See? This is why it's called the Dreamcast.

>>5986613
thanks!

>>5986661
thanks!

>>5986661
Oh.

>>5987000
See what I mean? Everytime I click the link on the site it wants me to login Yandex and for some reason I just get to see a local folder or something

>>5985805
You mean a place with every game in CDI format? There never was a place with "every .cdi" and never will be. There are literally thousands of shit rips in CDI format that no one cares about "preserving"

>>5986654
So what? Dreamfag can’t aimed this dead "gem" console as retrospective era.

>>5976101
Because it casts your hopes and dreams into the garbage

>>5976101
Try selling something called Uranus.

>>5987470
OP does that for a living

>>5983085
That's like four more jrpgs than i thought it had. Shenmue is awesome, though

>>5976101
It's actually a great name. Like broadcast except the things are sort of like from your dreams - dreamcast. Better than any other console name.

>>5987969
Gamecube is good, because it's a literal game cube
Playstation, too. Station where you game

>>5987979
Super Nintendo, its like a Nintendo, but Super. Says it all.

>>5987979
Sega Genesis. A new genesis of gaming. Nintards BTFO.

>>5987296
sonyfag in denial

>>5988052
You the one who in denial.

>>5976101
Because it sounded good.

>>5976101
That controller looks uncomfortable as hell.

>>5987470
>There are no games in Mianus.

>>5988953
There are and I'm pretty sure you put a game in your sad incel anus recently

>>5989745
had no idea jackass is boomer-tier already, sad.
