Reading about what a commercial success the Dreamcast was, and seeing it now is quite emo.

The article was right.

Everyone I knew who didn't buy a dreamcast kept saying

"im afraid it will be like sega cd and saturn. they will probably pull the plug and it will die fast"

I kept trying to convince people otherwise and telling them to support the system. Sadly, in the end, they were right. Even though I love the Dreamcast and its my favourite system ever, it did die early like the skeptics predicted.
