@Blitzenexx Do you still have a Dreamcast? If so, and if you can get it for a decent price, I promise you that the game is worth experiencing. It's just too special and too weird of a game to not have at least played it once. And personally, I actually had a lot of fun with it, and it kept me hooked for months.
It's just one of these one of a kind games that, although they don't exactly define a system, definitely do make people tie the two together: "remember that weird game with the talking fish man on the Sega Dreamcast?"
And it was also one of the first, if not THE first, voice controlled games, so it was unique and innovative in more ways than one.
You could watch a video of it, to get some idea of how it plays, but I've found that even though watching clips of it brings back memories, it isn't exactly the same as playing it yourself, because the conversations you'll have, are always different, and the progress of the game largely depends upon your specific actions and answers in the conversation.
@Anti-Matter That looks pretty nice, and very tidy also. I see you're taking good care of your games and books.
I do see a wall, however, that could also use some care and attention...
I don't really have a dedicated space per se (well, my entertainment center, sorta). My Wii/Wii U games are nestled on one side of my entertainment center with some other random gaming stuff (Wii remote + nunchuk, system manuals, etc.). My handheld everything occupies three shelves in my room. My 3/DS shelf isn't far from full though.
@ThanosReXXX: No Dreamcast here unfortunately. I never even knew anyone who owned one. I'll probably end up watching some footage at some point at least.
@1UP_MARIO That looks pretty decent as well. What's with the blue Switch screen? Didn't even know that was even possible. I like the red though, so even if it is possible to change it, I'll probably still leave it as it is...
@Blitzenexx Ah... that's a shame. It had so many great games, and it's actually rather unbelievable, seeing how short its lifespan was. I always suggest to people that love great games and great systems, to try one out, or buy a refurbished one. Nowadays, they usually don't cost more than 50 to 60 bucks.
But in the mean time, I guess we actually will have to make do with some videos for now, so here goes:
Friendly warning concerning the second video, in case you're not familiar with the Angry Video Game Nerd: his videos are always semi-sarcastic, and there's quite a lot of adult speak and f-bombs involved. But I do like to watch them, every now and then, even just as a break from the norm...
@ReaderRagfihs Ah, thanks for re-posting that. Forgot all about it, but it's hilarious. Be sure to give it a watch, @Blitzenexx. Some Dreamcast fan managed to let the game join a webcam roulette via PC emulation, and it confuses the hell out of people. Classic internet gold...
And now that I've actually seen the video in it's entirety, I see that there's even two more parts to it, from what I gather from the playlist that appears when the video stops.
'The console wars are like boobs: Sony and Microsoft fight over which ones look the nicest and Nintendo's are the most fun to play with.'
@ReaderRagfihs Aha, duly noted. By the way, in case you didn't do that on purpose: the video starts halfway a third of the way in, instead of at the beginning, where there are also a couple of funny moments.
