Okay. Thanks. :geek:

One more question, kinda related to this topic:
Can game screenshot pics be hosted/uploaded on this site, or, do I have to use a site like imgur to host pics?

Yes you can upload pictures here.

I think it's a cool idea to have a sub forum section dedicated to tips and even walkthroughs. It doesn't seem like it would be a super popular section but it's worth a shot.

Yeah, I agree. It was out of curiousity that I asked this question. Looking at it, I'm really glad I made this topic. Hopefully, something cool materialises out of it.

Yeah. You have a good point there. But it is possible, we might get a good handful of people, visiting this forum and checking them out too. And gamers who are veteran dreamcast fans, and gamers who are new to dreamcast games, might get some good use out of these written game tutorials. Especially since there are alot of games, that they probably haven't played yet, or are stuck in. Me included. :lol:

Like for eg. If I or some other member, were to post a ton of advanced tips and strategies, for dreamcast fighting games. Eg. Soul Calibur, or VF3TB etc, in the case of VF3tb, people from VFDC, might start visiting here too. Since there are a good bunch of sega fans, on that forum. :D
