Happy 25th anniversary to Shenmue in Europe!

Here’s a podcast we did to commemorate the occasion.
It's been 25 years since the Sega Dreamcast's killer app #Shenmue made its voyage to Western shores. The DreamPod celebrates with Matt (@shenmuedojo.com) and KC (@thesegalounge.com). We discuss personal memories, the series’ legacy, and hopes for its future.

New homebrew alert: “black screen” by @captkuso.bsky.social. This lo-fi space trading game for the Sega Dreamcast (and PC) sees players buying/selling goods and gearing up their ship, all in search of the mythical key to immortality… Definitely worth a try!

The Sega Dreamcast's disc drive is infamous for the grinding sounds it makes. It turns out that this can be cured with a £3.50 brass gear. @pizzahotline.bsky.social has a handy guide here for those interested in taking on this unique mod.

A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

The Sega Dreamcast wasn’t a stranger to casino/card games. Looking to continue this lineage is Glowhare Studio with their new free game Dream Table Poker. It has an arcade mode & local multiplayer where each player looks at their cards using the VMU.
