have the modem and Pi setup to hop online. I'll probably get to it when I'm done with my Saturn kick.😛

When you do let me know. I have Quake, PSO, and Propellar Arena I can play with people. I have more but the BBA isn't supported with other titles I have.

Dug out my PAL Dreamcast from storage today. I've connected it to my HDTV by using a POUND Dreamcast to HDMI converter cable, and then the M-classic to my TV. Picture quality is really clear and crisp.

Gonna play some games later. I own some original discs, thou most of my games I burned to CD-I about 10 years ago(something I regret)

I aim to rectify this thou by starting to collect original/Homebrew physical discs again...

Does the Mclassic help a lot? I have a Pound cable but switched over to an Akura setup which is ok but still need an upscaler...

Yes definitely. the M-classic is expensive, thou cheaper than say buying a retrotink 5x etc. Dreamcast games look amazing!

I’m happy with my Japanese Dreamcast. I purchased a legal boot disc to play games from all regions. I’m mostly interested in arcade games, so I own a lot of fantastic 2D fighters for the system (mostly imports).

 

My prized possession is a CIB copy of Marvel vs Capcom 2. I play this game all the time. The disc drive works fine, so I don’t see an SD solution in my future.

Marvel vs Capcom 2... One of, if not the best fighter on Dreamcast and any other platform. In my opinion

I had some buddies over to play Sonic Shuffle. It can be pretty fun when you're not playing with the cheating computers. We managed to run into a couple funny glitches, like one where Knuckles was climbing in air:

Just found out about this game recently now that the sequel is out. Definitely high on my list now, I've been in the mood for a good 2D platformer/action game.

(08/13/2024) Well, I decided to start over on Sonic Adventure by deleting my save data…I’m not so sure about starting all over again although I made some progress already: I just lack the motivation to do it again.

 

I already completed the game myself years before I decided to delete my data just because I wanted to go through the story again.

 

Though now I recognize the tropes after reading about it on TV Tropes and I think Sonic has a specific archetype for a Japanese character.

 

They say Sonic is like a Shonen hero in this version of the game: think like anime or manga from the same country (Japan) with characters like Son Goku (Dragon Ball), Ichigo Kurosaki (Bleach), or Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece); at least that’s how they described Sonic and his archetype.

 

The thing is: I don’t agree with the way these characters are written yet everyone on the Internet likes them.

 

Wasn’t the Internet built for trolls, memes, cats, anime, and porn?

 

Anyway, that’s just me going on a tangent about the world around me.

 

This is why I prefer to read comics and watch cartoons from where I live (USA) and play the video games localized from Japan to here.

 

I even have a black Model 1 Saturn even though Nights is all I play.

 

At least I also beat that game too.

 

Here’s a screenshot of me trying to raise some Chaos, minus the incentive and the motivation too.
