"It's Thinking!"

Our very own Lucas Janke never had a Dreamcast when it was first around. After having been at Gamer Time for a while, his co-workers finally convinced him to pick one up. Sadly, before he ever had a chance to try it out, his house burned down taking his game collection down with it.

Shortly after that, he found one at a garage sale on the cheap. Not just someone’s old gaming console. No, this one was brand new in the box. He has been waiting to open it, so we are very happy to be able to bring you the unboxing of a brand new Dreamcast on the console’s ten year anniversary.

See all the pics after the break.

As you can see, Sega was very confident in their console at the launch. It was not misplaced, it just turned out the mass audience was still hung up on Sony’s Playstation brand.

Not only did they include a modem, they even had their own internet service you could sign up for in the form of SegaNet. The 56k modem was pretty standard at the time, but if you did have high speed internet, there was an adapter available.

I have a feeling Microsoft’s designers were Dreamcast fans. The 360 controller’s look and feel is very much a modern take on what Sega did with the DC controller.

So clean and shiny, fresh out of the box. I am insanely jealous.
