Rememer also that Sony were promising miracles with the PS2......just when the dreamcast should have been cleaning up.
Always been more of a nintendo man myself, you can't beat a good Zelda game.

Dreamcast suffered bad timingif they'd held it back so it could use DVDs, it would have really had a chance...
Whenever I saw a Saturn running anything, it looked only marginally better than a SNES, which considering it was (at the time) "next gen" really put me off... So naturally when the DC came along I (along with many others, by the looks of history) was put off by bad memories. Lack of a DVD version was just an extra nail in it's coffin, when the PS2 made (and kept) a lot of promises... not all of them, but enough to keep the punters interested.
