A very obscure accessory this time. The Official Sega Dreamcast Modular Extension Cable!

Being the first console designed especially with online connectivity in mind, it was important to be able to run a phone cable to the Dreamcast over longer distances.

"It's not just a TV-game, but a PDA"!
A rectangular white box, the top third of which has a clear plastic window through which to see the contents. Visible through the window are many coiled strands of a white cable wrapped around a box-like terminal. There is a blue sticker in a white circle on the window with the word "NEW" in Japanese and English. The lower portion of the box has a simple diagram of the cable's two ends in thin black lines and the word "Dreamcast" in orange going vertically down the box. Above the diagram is the text: "Dreamcast Modular Extension Cable (in English and Japanese) Dreamcast will take you to a brand new world. It's not just a TV-game but a PDA. Network system and a whole lot more. A new level of entertainment awaits you. HKT-8200" The back of the box which is white and features a diagram of the cable and a Dreamcast, illustrating how to attach the cable to extend reach. Above the diagram is this text: "HKT-8200 Thank you very much for purchasing the modular extension cable. Before using the product, please read this package and the "For Your Safety" and instruction manual that come with the Dreamcast console carefully and make sure you understand the contents before using the product. After reading the package, please keep it near the product so that you can refer to it at any time."

Let’s take a moment to appreciate how cool / 90s the Neo Geo logo is.

In the 90's, any worthwhile franchise would inevitably see a Puzzle-Game spin-off, and Tokimeki Memorial is no exception.

Tokimeki Memorial Taisen Puzzle-Dama is a spin-off of both Tokimeki Memorial and Taisen Puzzle-Dama, as the name implies.

Much like Evil Zone, Tech Romancer is a love-letter to anime tropes - in this case, mecha anime, specifically.

One of Capcom's extremely rare forays into 3D, and something of a sister-game to CyberBots - TR features snappy 8-Way movement, and a heavy focus on zoning.

And destructible environments!

Silver is a Hack-&-Slash WRPG for Sega Dreamcast about a knight named David who's wife was kidnapped by the tyrant Silver.

The game features 360 degree combat, utilizing the analog stick pretty well

Unfortunately, the camera is *very* zoomed-out, and the fixed-camera angles are kinda disorienting

in which we take a look at Keith Giffen in his mid-80s Imperial Period, riffing on one of the weirdest cul de sacs in all DC continuity - the Legion of Substitute Super Heroes:
Review Excerpt - Now, if you're not already onboard with the Legion, the real appeal here is Giffen's art - this was one of the very first Legion books I ever bought, primarily because it was Giffen, and not just any Giffen, but funny Giffen, the objectively superior Giffen. If you're a fan of his Ambush Bug - and if not, why not? - this book serves as something of a companion to that, a book with a similar sense of humor, produced during the same period of time, and with all the same striking visual shortcuts, with added Paul Levitz. This one even starts with Proty Il playing the lute - and if you don't know who Proty Il is, maybe you should ask your parents. You're never to old to have The Talk.

In November of 2001, Sega had gone multi platform but Sega US execs were still loving their console. Every Dreamcast gamer should own a VGA box.

From an interview I did with Charles Bellfield for Electric Playground:
EP: Yeah, a lot of Dreamcast owners have been very vocal about that. Some of them are even going so far as to import the Sega Europe release of Shenmue lI in order to play the game on their Dreamcasts via the VGA box. CB: That's a great solution. You know what? I'm doing that. I probably shouldn't say that, but I did make sure that I have a VGA box at home, and I do, and I will play it that way. I can say to you that the relationship with Microsoft for Shenmue Il on Xbox, the game, and I know what Yu-san is doing, will be remarkable on that system. I think you, and i hope everyone who reads this, will agree with me that it is far better to extend that franchise and to continue the story and to continue the development of AM2's team there than to kill it off just by shipping onto Dreamcast. Microsoft is a great partner for us in many ways, many I cannot tell you about, but it will continue this franchise.
