!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

What is the Dreamcast and why did it fail?
It was Sega's last console. The PlayStation 2 obliterated it, among other factors.
Fun fact, Microsoft used the Dreamcast controller scheme as a starting point for the Xbox controller.
And they used the Naomi (arcade dreamcast) as the starting point for the main board
Did not know that. Cool
Dreamcast was a console from Sega: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamcast
That's all I know. 🙃
Still own mine... It failed because Sega was terrible at marketing their consoles.
Sega Master System, Sega CD, Game Gear, and Dreamcast were all better than their competitors when they came out, but they were all pretty big flops comparatively.
