Hey, did you know yesterday was 9/9/13?!? That means it was our lovely Dreamcast’s birthday.
To celebrate our little buddy growing up and turning 14, we played through some of my favorite lesser-known games in the Dreamcast’s library. We kick things off with some Seaman action, and then we switch to Sword of the Berserk: Guts’ Rage, Super Magnetic Neo, Zombie Revenge and more.
I love all of these games, and if you’ve never played them, check out the video and see what they’re all about!
Hooray! I knew you guys wouldn’t forget… (You may have said something on a recent podcast, but I’m several ‘casts behind and still catching up). I really enjoyed Sword of the Berserk, although I think I had to use an Action Replay or Game Shark to complete it. Still waiting with fingers crossed for a 3DS re-release of Seaman…
I myself played Samba de Amigo with my daughter yesterday, complete with the Sega-themed DLC tracks. A good time was had by all.
Ahhh, Samba de Amigo. I’m still missing that great game from my collection. I’ll have to pick it up one of these days.
I highly suggest the Dreamcast one over the Wii version. The track list is better, the maracas work better than the Wii remotes, and you have the option to play with the controller if you just want a more relaxing play through. Seriously, you can borrow mine (either DC or Wii) sometime if you want. I’m in Columbia (MD).
Oh, really? I didn’t know a fellow Sega Nerd lived so close! I’m in Laurel, and we were in Columbia this afternoon near Wegmans!
Yep, five minutes from my house, Airman. You probably brushed shopping carts with my wife and kid while you were there, depending on the time, of course.
Haha, that’s wild. It would be interesting to see how many people in the SEGA community are around here and arrange some sort of meetup sometime.
Sounds like a great idea. If it happens, I’ll bring my Nomad and X-Eye.
Haha, I’m looking into arranging the first SEGA Nerds meet-up mid-to-late October at the Baltimore Bar Arcade. You ever been there?

No, I’m not originally from the area (stationed here for a year or so). Looks like a good place, though. Will there be an announcement on the site or on Facebook should it come to pass?
Ahhh, so are you in the military too?
Yeah, once we nail it down, we’ll post it up here, Facebook and Twitter.
Cool. I’ll be watching for it. According to Destructoid, Gunstar Heroes shares a birthday with the Dreamcast (9 September) and turned 20 last week (just like Mortal Kombat did). I am old, old, old…
