Over at the the-dreamcast-junkyard.blogspot.com (http://the-dreamcast-junkyard.blogspot.com/), caleb aka Blandco posted some footage of the classic video game day that he organized for the local public library, utilizing some excellent music by the American punk rock band NOFX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOFX) from their 1994 hit record 'Punk in Drublic':

It's hard to run something like this and get decent footage at the same time.

In any case there is a lot of Dreamcast (and Saturn) action in it. During the Tournament I even used the Dreamcast Atari collection.

The most popular Dreamcast titles were Marvel Vs Capcom 1 and 2. I had seven different stations set up with classic video game systems including an Atati 2600, NES, N64, Genesis, PS1, Saturn, 2 Dreamcasts, and a couple of PCs with Starcraft and Doom multiplayer set up on them.

The Dreamcast systems were by far the most popular with the general public.
