Sega Dreamcast Classic Edition PI 3 "For SEGA fans only"

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Hi everyone I'm working on a completely NEW and improved design for the Dreamcast Classic Edition but I am running into issues with SEGA. I have been in contact with SEGA and asked for a license to make just Dreamcast cases that buyers could build how ever they choose and this is what SEGA responded with.... "Unfortunately we are unable to grant a license and must formally request for you not to continue as described within your correspondences. Best Regards,SEGA Support" I then responded to SEGA and I asked what could I do to meet there criteria and get a license and I am still waiting for a response. Because of this legally I can not sell any Dreamcast products unless I get approval from SEGA. I believe SEGA is not realizing the power of their Dreamcast and is just wasting a great opportunity to make a comeback!! I will keep you updated with any changes.

[@daniskicker]

if anything please let us know. I'd love to support and buy one of these little guys.

[@1987adb]

I feel the same I Would like to buy one to

[@jon1049]

I’d buy one for sure that’s badass

[@elyonelernst3831]

Ill happily buy this and put the logos on myself

[@elyonelernst3831]

MrLooZee He is been transparent with his viewers, not trying to land some business deal to exploit his fans. This guy is a legend!

[@aakelly20]

This is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever watched.

[@skyoneasassin]

Not perfect?! Dude this thing is awesome! This was super creative! If only Sega could see this

[@jamiegreig9699]

Holy shit dude. Your console looks like it rolled off Sega's assembly line. Very professional looking.

[@DevilsKnyte]

Jamie Greig don't you know, fans often make better projects than the actual big name companies

[@madmanbennett7882]

Huge Sega fan boy here and I adored the Dreamcast thank you for the hard work you put into making a classic edition and making a video showcasing us that the Dreamcast will never die

[@brianwalker7771]

VERY COOL DESIGN!!!! When you mentioned getting the DC on day one it brought back great memories for me. I have pre ordered 2 game systems in my life time. The first was the Sega Dreamcast and I NEVER regretted it for even one moment! The second was the Playstation 2 and for the first 9 months or so that I owned it the PS2 was nothing more than a PS1 a DVD player and a stand for my Dreamcast to sit on L.O.L. Such a shame that the PS2 hype crushed the Dreamcast. I believe The DC had a lot of fight left in it. Luckily it is still supported by fans with new games still coming out from time to time.

[@darthv72]

Awesome job. I love the professionalism you put into not only the mini design but also the packaging. Well done. Sega should really consider this.

[@High5Authentic]

Now this is a real portable home console. Props man and to your work. 👊

[@avionsivad2451]

Damn, the amount of work that you have put into this is amazing.

[@poke_ak]

You are very talented

[@golemcone]

Great work! I didn't know Adam Sandler is into Retro gaming. Awesome!

[@michaelzieger3795]

I truly appreciate this... Dreamcast is hands down My Favorite system 😁

[@MrJuice1979]

This is one of the best things I've ever seen. Great work

[@mkultrabaked6190]

I would totally buy this! Take my money!

[@theshield1613]

Still have my Sega Dreamcast from 1999 still works to this day.

[@G20Reviewer]

Wow thats amazing. Really well done. I would totally buy one.

[@abu269]

Love it! Dreamcast is one of my favourite ever consoles. I still have mine, still going strong!

[@unveilingtoys5893]

that's such a cool project, also a huge dreamcast fan!

[@RECTANGLESWITHEYES]

This is awesome, I would buy it if it was for sale

[@lelikcr3473]

Guguk KuShoe заходи в гости.

[@krustykrabpizza00]

I agree with you

[@StarAmpharosDraws]

I must have this now! If you make more, I will buy one.

[@davidmarchinko6139]

Man I Would Love to have one of these..i miss my dreamcast! a friend borrowed it and never got it back.

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

He better not be your friend anymore! lol

[@djseriousbizness]

Same story here brethren. Let my homie borrow mine when I got that first Xbox. He got locked up and you know the rest.

[@niespeludo]

A lot of attention to detail, I think it's genius how you used the NFC tags to load particular games. Simple yet effective. I'd buy this.

[@badazzboxer]

Sega needs to do this ASAP! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍

[@markmolino6091]

badazzboxer ,For real bro.

[@luisreyes1963]

Make this a reality SEGA!

[@hoffy1888]

Qauke 3 online dudes. Its good to see that you include alot of neat physical items. Unlike the Big N

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Thank you for all the positive feedback. Looking for possible changes for next Dreamcast build? Let me know your ideas in your comments. Here is a link to a 3d printable file of mini Dreamcast its a non functioning Hollow case with no lid or games just the shell but still very cool: Mini Dreamcast by Sparrows89, published Oct 1, 2017 www.thingiverse.com/thing:2562449 SEGA IS BACK!!! Also I'm a little surprised of the number of thumbs down especially when 98% of the comments are good. Can't please everyone I guess lol....

[@erikpingol7839]

Nevermind the haters, man. I'm subscribing to know more about your show.

[@justadude420]

Your title implies that Sega has made their own Dreamcast mini. Which is not true. Thats called clickbait. So its obvious why people are down voting. Don't play dumb.

[@lunaraura2828]

it's obvious sega hasnt released an official classic edition, so anybody that downvoted for "clickbait" reasons isn't playing dumb. They're actually dumb. Nice video.

[@Tailslol]

you should have gone with a xu4 instead,look like a dreamcast but what a joke if it don't run dreamcast games properly... (a bit like at games genesis...)

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Tailslol there is no comparison between this and "AT games consoles" Just the genesis support alone on this console blows away the AT games versions . I guess you should probably just make one your self since you have it all figured out...

[@lovetap4238]

I'd buy this in a heartbeat, absolutely love and still play my Dreamcast to this day!!

[@dustonthewind3748]

HOW MUCH I GOTTA PUT IN THE TIP JAR TO GET ONE OF THESE!?!

[@Malouco]

Duston Erwin do these really work? Are they hacked emulator things? What am I looking at?

[@dustonthewind3748]

Larry Medina ...YES! It has a Raspberry Pi inside running Emulation Station / RetroPie... lots of good videos out there to show you how it's done.

[@OxysLokiMoros]

there´s nothing special about it(only much emulators on a raspberry) but it looks very cool...

[@starchile2864]

Good morning 8 Bit, let me start by saying great design work because not only did you take the time to 3D print the console but you also took the time to make a controller and memory card! Those who have never tried to 3 D print and sand then paint and add components that move together in such a small device don’t understand the painstaking hours and attention to detail it takes knowing that once it’s put up in front of the world it will be scrutinized and bashed like you just whipped this thing out in an hour!!! Kudos to you for the wonderful memories you’ve resurfaced for me in my childhood with Dreamcast and Sega...please keep up the good work and if you decide to sell these please put me on your list and I’m sure my friends who have always been big Dreamcast fans will be on board (would also make a great Christmas gift) to purchase themselves one or two. Only thing I’d like to see in your console is maybe the ability to plug in a Dreamcast controller for full nostalgia...lol...thanks again for a moment of my childhood relived

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

thanks man i really appreciate your feedback

[@Team974]

I want to buy one.

[@DitchDr101]

Team 974 me too!!!

[@rpc72]

Count me in!

[@amonyy]

i want one

[@corpse92105]

I'll buy

[@SophiaXiaoyuAralaCran]

Same, especially if it plays Phantasy Star Online 1 or Power Stone on it :)

[@halsaufschneider1446]

Now that is pretty hot. And the freaking Dreamcast controller is bigger than the entire mini console! Awsome

[@bluray2012ify]

Best classic system ever!!

[@AkumaMods]

You are the man. One of my all time favorite systems ever! This is amazing

[@luckclumonM3]

Awwwww it's so cute how adorable it looks stunning soooo cute

[@RPO808]

This is freaking awesome! Back in the day I was a heavy Nintendo fan, but when the Dreamcast came out, I bought it day one because of how amazing the system and the games were. This vid brought back some great memories, thanks man!

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Thank you

[@Sarge92]

should have gone for a more substantial sbc really like a xu4 or something that handles dreamcast better but still a good project

[@byost83]

Dude. That's amazing. Memories flooding back. Dreamcast didn't get a fair chance.

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Thanks man. Its good to see Dreamcast still has a huge following.

[@byost83]

8 Bit Flashback what are your thoughts on all these so-called "flashback" systems.

[@hankthetank316]

Whats Up Man, Awesome Video and A Very Good Mini and Clone of the Sega Dreamcast. Man I Would Love to have one of these. I Never Owned a Dreamcast and I Always wanted one and it is my console on my radar to get list but this one would be Better and the way to go. Please make more and you should sell them. Many Blessings Peace

[@OxysLokiMoros]

buy a dreamcast! ;) i can recommend you to buy an old model(maybe a japanese version). you can play also burned games on it, and thats very cheap.

[@guncrafter2009]

​@@OxysLokiMoros Is the Japanese version region locked?

[@hyperspun8220]

Man all you builds are just simply amazing... What I would do for a case of every build you have made.

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Hyperspun thank you

[@ApriliaRSV4Guy]

Shut up and take my money!!!

[@ericfresh2844]

ApriliaRSV4Guy my words exactly

[@DarrinBentley]

Umm...YES PLEASE!!

[@fleXTheConsoleGuy]

Duuuuude, the mini NFC discs are so freaking cool!

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

fleX thank you

[@mayonnaiz-7990]

I didn't expect it to actually power on ._.

[@ThePeacePlant]

what do you mean you didnt expect that? did you not know what a Raspberry Pi is?

[@markmolino6091]

CouchHobbit - ,Me neither bro

[@90s_sascha]

@8 Bit Flashback :i want the improved case . let me know where i can buy one :)

[@SuperKokuJin916]

I (and Adam Koralik, I'd imagine) am totally on board for this! I would definitely buy one of these!!! The details are incredibly well done! You even included a replica VMU and a controller! Even the developer kit boot logo is here. I commend you for making attract modes and the replica discs that actually utilize NFC to boot to the rom file in the retropie. I miss my import DC and games. You have already done a million times better than anything ATgames had ever done with Sega's blessing. I really hope you can make more of these!

[@DijaVlogsGames]

SuperKokuJin916 Adam doesn't go emulation so I doubt he'd be on board.

[@peachermo1]

AWESOME! I love the mini controller and the mini games. Great concept and looks even better! Thx for sharing!

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

peachermo thank-you

[@ianholmes4723]

I'm interested!

[@The4thMan28]

Second console I bought on launch day after the ps2. Great job and I would love to purchase one if you ever make more!!

[@pickeliebaba]

I wasn't aware of the fact that Adam Sandler did retro-reviews nowadays ...

[@anthonyzellner440]

Jeff106 I immediately thought the same thing glad I’m not alone

[@MrSEA-ok2ll]

Why Sega would not permit a license for your actual passion and why people dislike this video staggers me...great video and effort...cheers.

[@GabrielGamingAtYt]

A lot of people are saying that you should take their money for that console we'll I don't have a money so... take my liver instead.

[@DijaVlogsGames]

ExileRN Giving your liver for a barely functional emulator is pretty extreme.

[@connorbowden4594]

I can't comment

[@tigeruppercut6421]

LOL

[@okjay755]

You're amazing, dude. This is... AWESOME!

[@aarongreenfield9038]

I wouldn't give you $1 for one of these, I would give you 500!.

[@jacksteel3464]

keep up the great work. that's something really there!

[@aarongreenfield9038]

I'll take 10, one for me, and the other nine for me!.

[@peshifilous6270]

I thought I was losing my mind playing Shenmue 2 in 2017 lol but simply had to knowing 3 is coming. Dreamcast truly one of the greatest consoles

[@Yungflyandrichent]

Power Stone & Marvel vs Capcom 2!

[@kingsonny3342]

Unbelievable job! I'd buy one in a heartbeat! I too absolutely love the Dreamcast and have tons of special memories because of this truly special console!!

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

King Sonny thank-you

[@Bangcat]

The hear say is wrong. Dreamcast didn't die due to advertising or being overshadowed. In fact many people brought their PS2 back saying they enjoyed their Dreamcast a lot more still. HOWEVER, pirating was a new craze for the general public when it came to consoles. And thanks to Microsoft's bad handling of the OS for the Dreamcast, YES I know it's a sega system but they had Microsoft do it's OS, just look at the windows logo on the corner of your old DC, IF YOU HAVE ONE, and it was extremely easy to trick past it's region lock and anything else. Sure you can pirate for other consoles now, but it was such a wild craze at a time that the hardware was well before it's time even, that people pirated the games so much in the USA that they stopped releasing the USA DC versions and went right to the PS2 where, for a while, it was harder to pirate for. Until they figured that one out too.... However with the love of the hardware, people in the USA doing it just SO much, and on top of that at a time where new hardware was now landing, the combination robbed the glorious Dreamcast of it's worthwhile time. Ever since, Sega has been taking it's frustrations out on American consumers, a stereotype that continues to lurk in it's upper management that if we cater to America they'll likely ruin things for the rest of us. AKA them. As such through the stereotype, which wasn't entirely wrong, but hardly appropriate to hold a grudge this long, has held back most things other than games they figured wouldn't really matter so much if people hacked them or the likes, and as such we've not gotten Border Break, and PSO2 was held back despite the promise that it was coming, where SEGA told a rather dishonoring lie which now plagues the SEGA brand when mixed with it's hideous treatment of it's USA fans due to the actions of others. However, very few know the in depths of these facts, and I could prove it all day long and people may still not believe it, but it's how it went down, and hopefully SEGA's management claiming it wants to do better for the USA is really truthful and not just a stunt to trick USA players into buying more sonic tittles just to bleed them for a little while longer while continuing to give them NOTHING of what they've asked for. AKA Border Break and PROPER access to PSO2. Meanwhile, time is up for SEGA. Border Break has finally come to the PS4 in Japan and thus run out of excuses as to why NOT bring it to the USA as it's no longer an arcade exclusive. SEGA will have to truly start making USA releases of what's been asked for, or the claim by management is going to be thrown back in their face as they continue to do nothing, and thus the final official lie will be called out. Such is likely to cause a near Konami sized rift in their stocks and consumer trust, and after that catering to their small world demographic will not save them. This is the time for SEGA to prove what it can do, and also what it has and that it can contend with other Eastern designers still who are robbing their place in the sun with ease, and that of other western designers, that themselves are leaving a wide open hole for the eastern gaming market to make it's huge comeback, which IT HAS already been doing. Sink or swim, SEGA. You were robbed once, but it's time to grow up and show the west what once put you where you were. If not, your final sink is coming. Too bad nearly no one will read this and realize the small piece of gaming history that has been overshadowed with the lies of 'oh it was bad marketing' for far too damn long. That's NOT how it went down... Not at all....

[@HumorousLOL]

Dude, stop. It's not a lie, that's actually what happened. I haven't heard of one person bringing back their PS2, that is such bullshit. Get it a rest.

[@Jimmy-ph8xn]

Sega, hire this guy. You’re crazy if you don’t.

[@DWarbz67]

Saturn emulation still not possible 20 years later. gg Sega

[@VoidReplicant]

Yes it is, a guy broke through it last year.

[@vasileios6301]

Not possible on Pi,on pc is fully emulated. Just try SSF emulator and Yabause

[@locutz]

On pc it is

[@robinmattheussen2395]

Guys, it is not FULLY emulated (what does that even mean?). Saturn emulation is very much work in progress, and results vary from game to game. Personally, I prefer using the Mednafen Saturn core, which is currently the best in my opinion, and has seen a lot of active development the last months. Mednafen Saturn does require some horsepower unsurprisingly. Yabause isn't very accurate as of right now, and doesn't see a whole lot of development I think. SSF is in a better state, but it is also closed-source and Windows only, which blows. Yabause has been forked into ouYabause for Android compatibility, so there may be some future for the emulator on ARM, but currently it's pretty much unusable and I believe it even comes with ads, so stay away from it.

[@vasileios6301]

+Robin Mattheussen Ι dont know about Mednafen Saturn core (I guess its for Retroarch which I hate to use),but SSF runs perfect everything I throw to it (it also needs some horsepower).

[@cavalleri]

Uh, that looks AMAZING!! I'd buy one.

[@kevlo9]

Very cool case, but Dreamcast emulation on the Pi3 is horrible (at best). The playable games run painfully slow and have tons of glitches. It's pretty pointless to even add Dreamcast games to the Pi3. Not to take away from your hard work on the case...good job!

[@graphicsgod]

Kevin Kallbreier Waste of time or not, I still want one to add to my mini console collection!! So far I have a mini, NES, SNES, and Genesis!

[@lovelorn88nick]

Hey man I noticed when your pi boots you have 1 Raspberry. On mine I have 4, is there a reason for this difference?

[@ced214]

Shut up and take my money😍😍😍😍

[@ced214]

Jared Connell I like it alot **Forrest Gump voice**

[@brentsta]

I noticed no power stone 2. Does that not work properly on dreamcast emulators? Wonder why we don't have a working dreamcast emulator yet, I mean we can emulate the ps2 perfectly. I just got power stone 2 and a dreamcast, game is fresh on my mind lol

[@canimaStyle]

sonic adventure 2 fps is horrible lol

[@RenegadeC]

Should overclock his pi3 and downscale the resolution for DC games.

[@junct4418]

And there are many graphic failures, Crazy Taxi has no shadows, Ikaruga works at 50fps, this does not work to emulate DC, for that Demul is much better.

[@McCFamily1]

I still have my original console from 1999. Dreamcast was ahead of its time.

[@Ragnarko]

Trump could play it with his tiny hands lol

[@Cyborg1011]

Todd Stephens I'm surprised he hasn't responded to this yet.

[@tbb033]

todd stevens could play it with his tiny brain, LORFMA

He's too busy fixing this broken country after the huge downward spiral of the last 8-years.

[@antsbchill]

PunkRockZombie205 hes too busy making an ass of himself ,playing golf and embarrassing our country ,fucking pathetic Russian lovin Orange Clown with bone spurs

[@jbgreviews855]

I can still remember the morning I spilt cereal all over my Dreamcast.. Such a traumatic moment.. All the other mini systems are cool and all, but the Dreamcast was a big part of my childhood.. Hope you get enough interest to start selling these. I’d be a buyer for sure.

[@davidrahmani1995]

You are a legend, bro. Keep it up. There’s rising demand for the DC. Sega will cave eventually.

[@jimm1387]

This is the holy grail for me. I remember release too. I've played a fair number of fun games since, but nothing has quite captured the magic of the Dreamcast.

[@vtown7o774]

Great job. I love the attention to detail you put into it. I am definitely interested if you get around to making anymore. The Dreamcast is one of my favorite systems. Keep up the good work. I enjoyed the video presentation.

[@ThatOldSchoolMagic]

How did I predict this. I must be a psychic. Hopefully they do make a real one one-day

[@PunkRockZombie205]

Man, I miss my dreamcast. In true fan boy fashion, I bought every system Sega came out with after falling in love with my genesis as a child. I never understood why people never got on board with the Saturn and dreamcast. They were both great while they lasted. I guess the juggernaut PlayStation became after hitting the market was just too much to over come. Oh well, I'd still love to see Sega re enter the console world again one day. Fingers crossed

[@willy7369]

Now, that was an awesome looking mini system. Love the mini controller and Vmu . Great job n the packaging you created as well maked it look very marketable. Great video. Have a Terrific Tuesday.

[@Retro__Glitch2313]

the Dreamcast was my first gaming console growing up my first i ever played game was super sega bass fishing i was 3 years old i really want this to become a classic console one day to relive my childhood life

[@anthonyfiorito1385]

Awsome. Plz build these systems. I'm a big SEGA fan. The Dreamcast is my favourite gaming system. With Nintendo doing there retro systems now in mini, why not bring out this mega system to the public. I don't know why SEGA themselves din't jump on the band wagon. So it is up to the true lover of Sega like yourself to do this. All the best. You build it fans will buy. We are a dying breed of fans. If made it will bring back memories. Don't let this op past. SEGA FANS UNITE. A.Fiorito Melbourne Australia.

[@devoncalixte8194]

Wow the little Raspberry Pi Dreamcast is brilliant and the fort that went into it with the controller and the vmu memory card and games discs brings back so much memories as a kid and I still have a Dreamcast that was a really really dope video

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

Thank you

[@devoncalixte8194]

8 Bit Flashback you're welcome

[@ErnestJay88]

I can't believe that Raspberry Pi III could emulate Dreamcast, my Pi III are struggle emulating N64 and PS1 games, and that's one generation behind dreamcast.

[@hunter371]

It's good to see they're still making episodes of Portlandia.

[@bilkoprince4222]

Its a thing of beauty. Like you my dreamcast was a day one purchase.

[@scotty28653]

Just Awesome. I Still have my Dreamcast, and it still works great. Your a true gamer.

[@CheffBryan]

I like the work you put into this, it's fantastic! However, the only reason I'm not interested in getting one myself is that I'm looking to make my own Dreamcast demo kiosk, and this won't work with light guns for rail shooters. For most people out there looking to plug and play, this is still fantastic.

[@oOoMarty73oOo]

Fantastic work! I'm interested too!!! : )

[@MrNash-vn5xp]

Awww it's so cute...I love the Dreamcast it has always been my favorite console and thanks for this video!

[@jamessmith785]

Oh how this takes me back. What a great console the dreamcast was. ChuChu Rocket and Power Stone were like digital crack. RIP deamcast.

[@tbtgamer6694]

I'm in love with this video, Dreamcast was my favorite console ever, I still has mine as relique cause it doesn't work anymore.

[@8-Bit_Flashback]

[@tbtgamer6694]

8 Bit Flashback Sega should copy Nintendo formula releasing mini editions it's consoles, if they don't allow you doing it at least release themselves 🤔

[@djseriousbizness]

Man, that's some top notch shit. I loved me some Sega back in the day too. That mini controller is extra fleek.

[@davechurros7835]

You are super talented! I've always wanted to get into modding those buggers but i always screw up somehow someway, i've already went through 6 or 7 pi's

[@ltjojo5393]

This is awesome!!! I'd definitely buy the 3D printed case to put my Pi 3. The NFC games idea is also badass!!! Would love an instructable on how to do those.

[@cove81]

Dreamcast is my favorite, I also bought it on launch day. I would love to have one of these mini Dreamcasts!

[@cppctek]

this is awesome. how much could you do another one for? or even partially completed.

[@twistedbld]

I would buy one on a heartbeat, I've loved dreamcast since it launched when I was 12

[@briteboy6131]

holy shit i love the idea of actually functioning mini games!! although even without that touch this thing is awesome!

[@Pharoah510]

I hope sega is watching, i just want the Sonic Adventure/Jet Grind/Shemue Series on a mini DreamCast....

[@Agumon5]

I love the Dreamcast .... Over 400 hours on it ... Shenmue was my favorite game.

[@robertadammccuesullivan2084]

beautifully crafted! cant wait for perfect emulation!

Incredible work dude I’m impressed. Definitely would buy one.

[@AGENTMARIEAKA-AVENGER2236]

[@FantasyVisuals]

For a raspberry pi3 the performance is exquisite. I really want Saturn emulation tho. Something the Raspberry systems cannot manage. Nice vid
