This is something which is going ahead but I need a fairy good sized development team/community behind it.
I have the hardware, ideas etc to develop this but I do need people to realize this is something which will go ahead but community support is needed.
So the idea behind it is literally to put a modified Dreamcast into a new shell...which is pretty much it but once again to give it boundries and to re-invent it so to speak with certain additions.
abit like the Wii, which is a Gamecube in a prettier shell.
So this will be a modified Dreamcast in the way of housing, controller, IMAGE (which is the most important part of the whole thing) and most of all bringing together a new collective and hopefully bringing SEGA back to the golden age.
So the image of the unit is an upgraded Genesis/Megadrive with a sleek design but the main thing is gettin the games image back.
So instead of "HD" remakes (which are upscaled with filter effects applied) they would literally have new sprites/sounds and levels... the new modeled golden axe on the dreamcast by another member on here is a brilliant version and idea.
So we would like to develop a sequels, origional games and remakes.
The main image would be 2D multiplane scrolling but presented in a 2D style.
the modifications include RGB output to higher resolutions, decent sound output, SD card possibly CD.DVD but mostly homebrew development.
this as I said is more an image thing with a group of people moving towards a certain goal for the re-invention and keeping towards a style which should hopefully reinvigorate a love for the new school with an old school twist.
im trying to develop something which will give to the community something in which these 15-in-1 units and fake sega units are raping it and its loosing the magic.
we as a community on this project will hopefully re-ignite the sega love.
If this is something which interests you or you think you can help then this can go ahead but need support to go ahead!
but just remember the DC has the perfect price/power ration to make this work.
