Dreamcast
Dreamcast was SEGA's last console, being released on November 27, 1998.
At its launch, it impressed everyone with its graphic power, far superior to the Playstation and Nintendo 64, and offering graphic quality on the same level as the arcades of the time, sometimes even superior, as it was in the game Soul Calibur.
Among the Dreamcast highlights we had games like Virtua Tennis, Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, Dead or Alive 2, Shenmue, among others.
The Dreamcast also stood out for its excellent games from Capcom, which provided excellent support for the console at the time and ended up bringing several games to it, such as Power Stone, Marvel vs Capcom 2, Capcom vs SNK 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica.
All this made it seem that the Dreamcast would lead this new generation that at the time was called 128 bits, but unfortunately Sega was not in good financial conditions, and sales in Japan were not as high as expected in addition to the competition with the Playstation 2 when it came out on the market.
In 2001 Sega decided to discontinue the Dreamcast abandoning the hardware market focusing on game development for all consoles.
Its hardware had a 128-bit Hitachi SH4 processor running at 200Mhz, 16MB of RAM main memory and 8MB of video memory.
Its GPU is a NEC Power VR2 running at 100MHz and its sound chip is a Yamaha AICA with 64 audio channels.
The Dreamcast sold approximately 9 million units, and its most successful game was Sonic Adventure, which sold 2.5 million units worldwide.
Release date: November 27, 1998
