	Salon Technology \| Can the Dreamcast save Sega? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Sega of America announced last Wednesday that its most widely recognized executive, president and chief operating officer Bernie Stolar, would be replaced by vice chairman Toshiro Kezuka, effective immediately.
		Sega lost its market share rapidly as Sony's PlayStation became the platform of choice, and Sega eventually stopped supporting Saturn, much to the ire of the gamers who had made the pricey commitment to its platform.
		Sega knows this -- and is going all out, with a $100 million marketing campaign and efforts to entice game makers to build cool games for the new platform.

	History of Computing: Videogames - Sega Dreamcast
		Sega was the first manufacturer to release a new generation system following the 32/64-bit systems (PlayStation, Saturn, and N64).
		The Dreamcast launched in Japan in the fourth quarter of 1998 and hit Western Europe and the United States toward the end of 1999.
		Sega’s strongest suit had always been their software, so they reinvested their hardware dollars into development for titles for the three remaining consoles.

	Sega Dreamcast
		Sega has revealed the specs on its latest console system to be called Dreamcast, and it looks to be quite a powerhouse.

		Sega of America has also unveiled its marketing plan, at least in part, coming to a head with a primary sponsorship of the MTV Music Video Awards, which will be broadcast on 9/9/1999, the day the platform ships.

	Gadget: Sega Dreamcast
		Sega's tale has since been filled with woe: at the top of their game with the Genesis and commanding impressive marketshare, Sega watched as Nintendo regained steam with its Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
		Sega even has a VGA converter box available for users who would prefer to display the console's crisp graphics on a computer monitor instead of a TV set.
		Sega has already shown developers and consumers that it's learned from past mistakes by launching the Dreamcast with better third-party vendor support than any other game console in its history.

	PlanetDreamcast: About - Sega History
		Sega wasn't exactly an industry powerhouse yet, but they had scored a few hits with games like Turbo (which was packaged with the ColecoVision's driving controller), Frogger, and Zaxxon.
		Sega Master System technology was later used in Sega's first cartridge-based portable, the Game Gear, which was released in 1990.
		Sega has ensured that existing Dreamcast owners will receive a steady supply of software into 2002 while the company looks into becoming a third-party developer, giving UK manufacturer Pace rights to create devices using the Dreamcast technology.

	Sega Dreamcast Console Information
		It was originally rumoured to be a 64-bit upgrade for the Sega Saturn, code-named Eclipse, but by March 31st, this story had changed and it was now believed that Sega was planning a completely new, separate console.
		By 16th July 1999, the Dreamcast was outselling the Nintendo 64 by a 3 to 1 ratio.
		The largest factor that contributed to the failure of the Dreamcast, however, was the announcement of the Sony PlayStation 2 (and later the Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo GameCube).

	Salon \| Can the Dreamcast save Sega?
		Some Sega staffers think that parent company Sega of Japan wanted one of its own in the top slot to bring the two divisions closer together (Kezuka worked at the Japanese offices prior to moving to the United States earlier this year).
		Dreamcast users will be able to connect to Sega-sponsored community areas, which will build loyalty, and also keep Sega in touch with who its users are and what they are looking for.
		Sega is aware that this is its last chance; it's lost so much money and market share in past years that it simply can't withstand another failure.

	Sega Dreamcast Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The Dreamcast controller seems boxy and compact compared to the wing-shaped controllers used by both the N64 and PlayStation, but it is fairly comfortable in the hand.
		Sonic Adventure is the obvious signature title, showcasing Sega's trump character in a format that's equally reminiscent of previous Sonic side-scrolling games and of Nintendo's classic Mario 64, which did much to establish the N64 as a keeper.
		Hopefully in a few weeks' time I'll have had another stint with the Dreamcast system and will be able to form a clearer view of the system's place in the grand scheme of things.

	Sega Dreamcast games pirated - MegaGames console
		Japan-based Sega said the piracy would not affect the business materially, but that it was working with law enforcement and would pursue pirates vigorously.
		Dreamcast games come on discs similar to CD-ROMs, but they cannot be read by other CD-ROM drives, and the consoles are not supposed to be able to read recorded CD-ROMs.A hacker group called Utopia released a file on the Internet a week ago that can be burned onto a CD-ROM.
		Sega spokesman Charles Bellfield said the company made changes to the consoles 6-9 months ago to prevent this kind of piracy, and that just 100,000-200,000 of the 2 million consoles sold in the United States would be able to play pirate games.

	Games that defined Sega Dreamcast - Joystiq
		The dreamcast was, and still is a geometry powerhouse, or have you never heard of a concept called tile rendering, no, it's not a buzzword like blast processing, it means dreamcast has no theoretical limit to how much geometry in a scene, because all unused overdraw is not rendered.
		Sega had other options, like being acquired by Microsoft and solving their capital problems in fell swoop but that wasn't something the Board of Directors were prepared to accept.
		Sega was way ahead of their time, and just like every other pioneer, they get shoved aside by a competitor with a crappier product but better marketing.

		Sega is famous for all kinds of failed (and embarrassing) video game consoles they brought to the world, but this time they actually "kind of" got it right with the Dreamcast.
		Sega also failed because of their long, frustrating history of ripping people off with unsatisfactory video game systems (such as the Sega CD and Sega Saturn).

	Sega Dreamcast - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sega had been keeping the development of its next-generation console secret during this competition, and was supposedly outraged when 3dfx publicly laid out its deal with Sega over the new system in the IPO.
		The Dreamcast was released on November 27, 1998 in Japan, on September 9, 1999 in North America (the date 9/9/99 featured heavily in US promotion) and on October 14, 1999 in Europe.
		In fact, although the Dreamcast was officially discontinued in January 2001, Sega continued to produce the console for a short time afterwards due to rising demand, especially among collectors and hardcore fans.
