!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The Dreamcast didn't even survive until the release of the Xbox (if I'm not mistaken).
This was in a way by design, Sega and Microsoft had an very interesting relationship at the time. With Windows CE on Dreamcast, Isao Okawa meeting with Bill Gates to try to save the DC library, and Peter Moore moving from Sega to Xbox.
It reminds me of how the PlayStation was originally supposed to be a SNES CD before they went their separate ways.
The Dreamcast was so ahead of it's time no one understood it's greatness.
