It's nice to save as many online games as possible but I won't cry if planet ring, pool and toy racer get less playtime because of Outtriger, Speed Devils and Bomberman.

Lol please don't complain about there be too many ever. If all were put back online day one that would be a blessing. Hell if even only one online game was put back that would be a blessing. I hope it's possible Propeller arena could be put up online. That would be epic lol

Think of this. Reviving the Dreamcast Online Community will actually give Sega another shot at bringing another console back into the market. These side projects always keeps the memories and success back into the gaming industry. Quake and Unreal Tournsment are positive honorable mentions other than PSO, keep the legendary console going and you will see great success.

However, as we can see, there aren't all that many online Dreamcast players these days period. There are 235 players in total according to http://dreamcast.online/now/ , and though that doesn't count everyone, it is a good approximation.


It's worth noting that this figure is the number of players active in the last 3 months, the total figure is probably getting towards 400-500 now.

Well once I heard my Dreamcast (which I’ve had since I was 5 and been trying to get online since I was 10) had a very easy way to go online now, I wanted in on this small community, now I’ve been proud to be part of this community for almost a year
