Apparently Sega has decided to update its Dreamcast website for the upcoming 10th Anniversary since the release of its ill-fated, but highly respected last console. Sega has also recently filed a patent for new hardware, which involves everything needed for a successful home console today. When compared to the old patent for Dreamcast, they were completely different and with no hardware specifications listed as of yet. This could potentially rule out new peripherals or a mere re-release of the old hardware. Could this be a sign of Sega's recently rumored attempt to finally enter the console business again? Well, we haven't exactly seen many Sega games lately outside of their publishing office ala The Club and Condemned 2: Bloodshot. In the meantime, you can visit Sega's newly updated Dreamcast website and tell them whether or not you still own a Dreamcast and even sign up for a brand new account. Sega definitely has something up their sleeve. It would seem that pieces of a certain puzzle are beginning to come together. Remember, "Patience is a virtua." Take my word for it though; I wouldn't get my hopes up until some solid information from Sega themselves is stated or made available. In the meantime, you can watch the history of Dreamcast courtesy of the older, less crappy G4's "Icons". You know, back when they actually had decent programming most of the time. Well... maybe just sometimes. OK. Once a month.
And don't forget to show the Dreamcast some love and support and its new website:
