On this day in 1999, Sega Dreamcast was released in America. It’s still a fondly remembered videogame console by many gamers from that time. I wrote an article about it two years ago that I would like you all to check out since my views haven’t changed.

It’s one of the most ambitious projects I have ever worked on in my life. If you went to AFO 12 and participated in”Conquerors of Neo-Orlandia” or want to see how a major event is made for success, this will be a good read for you.
