The lights are on
In an interview in the January issue of Game Informer (Tomb Raider cover, issue 213), Sega's executive vice president of sales and marketing Alan Pritchard revealed that the company is going to release a Dreamcast collection title that will compile some of that system's most popular games, similar to the Ultimate Genesis Collection title that was released this year.When asked about the persistent rumors of a Dreamcast 2 console, Pritchard spoke about Sega's plans."The Dreamcast fans are very devoted. You see on eBay people are still buying the games and system. We actually have a Dreamcast collection coming out soon. We are looking to bring some of the old Dreamcast games to market digitally and packaged. The titles are still to be announced. The Ultimate Genesis Collection did huge numbers on PS3 and 360, so it’s an important part of our business. We’ve already been releasing some Dreamcast games digitally; Crazy Taxi [for one]."And, just for the record, Pritchard once again scuttled any speculation that the company was looking to make another Dreamcast system, saying, "Unless there’s something I don’t know – no one has told me about getting back into the console business.For more on Sega, read the full interview in the current issue of Game Informer.

I would love this for my PS3. My Dreamcast broke, so I would love to play games like Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure again. I don't like downloading those types of games.
I know it's too much to ask, but can we just have an HD shenmue allready!
Oh Dreamcast,
No matter what high-tech piece of plastic and wires I get involved with in the future, you'll always be my first ;)
I enjoyed my Dreamcast and had some great games for it. Be nice to be able to play them again on my ps3 or 360
we need a Saturn collection
Still got my Dreamcast up and running with a VGA adapter for HD gaming! Most splendid..... Most splendid.
PLEASE SEGA PLEASE PUT POWER STONE 2 AND SPAWN IN THE DEMONS HAND...AND IF YOU CAN SWORD F THE BERSERK!
Powerstone and Soul Caliber...ahhh...good times...
YES!! that is awesome i would love to see a dreamcast collection
it was a great system
im not to sure of a dream cast 2 though i dont think it would make it
Awesome!! it's good to see that we at least have access to the dreamcast's awesomeness in some way shape or form albeit not as an actual console which i'd like to see.
Hoping for some Shenmue 1&2 being in this package. Would really like it to have Phantasy Star Online also.
If Shenmue 1&2, and Power Stone aren't in it then don't bother.
All I want for chrismas is Shenmue
Does anybody remember Fighters Megamix back in the Saturn days, it would be awesome to see a port of that game.
