Sony has spent the day reminding people that it’s the 20th anniversary of the original PlayStation’s launch in North America, and that’s cool, but let’s not forget that today is also a special anniversary for another old console.
On September 9, 1999, the Sega Dreamcast was released in the USA. While it’s sad that the console didn’t survive to mark the occasion of its Sweet 16, we can always honour its memory by embedding videos of its boot screen, playing the various remakes of Jet Set Radio and reading sad old stories about all the ways Sega’s last console got things so, so right but also so, so wrong.
