We are going back to the past, all the way to the year 2000! :: plays spooky sound effect:: Back in the day when we all had Dreamcasts, waiting on Shenmue (instead of waiting for Shenmue III) and dreaming about what the Dreamcast had in store for us in the future.
But what did the biggest developers on the Dreamcast think about the new millennium? The scans that are posted after the jump has interviews with Yu Suzuki, Tetsuya Mizuguchi, Yuji Naka, Skies of Arcadia team, Sega GT designers, Yoshiko Okamoto from Capcom, and many more about their thoughts on the future of the Dreamcast!
They also have previews of many games that never got released on the Dreamcast, so its always fun to see that. They also have previews of the Sega Zip Drive and MP3 VMU that also never got released.

Eurogamer had a interview with Tetsuya Mizuguchi, where they asked him the stereotypical questions. One of them was about him remaking Space Channel 5! This is what he had to say:
I don’t feel like there’s a really special reason to remake Space Channel 5 now. It’s not like Rez. Rez is an experience game - the physical experience is very important, the visuals, the sounds and the vibration. I wanted to prove that if you had much more resolution, including the vibration, that it could be much more fun. Space Channel 5 is essentially a rhythm timing game. It’s funny, like a comical TV show. I don’t feel the need for much more resolution in that! That’s the major difference.
I agree with him, he should make a totally new Space Channel 5. Do it!
