The Dreamcast was meant to be a return to form for Sega, after its Saturn console failed to live up to expectations following the phenomenal success of the Mega Drive/Genesis. However, less than two years after launch in Europe, Sega discontinued the Dreamcast and withdrew from the hardware market. Nonetheless, the system is still revered as a classic two decades later, and lives on thanks to a thriving fan community. In this book you can learn how the Dreamcast came to be, as well as what happened during its first year on the market. You can also understand more about the history of Sega’s final console through interviews with heavy-hitters from the industry, as well as retrospectives of games that put the system on the map, for all the right (and sometimes wrong!) reasons.
