I know right? The Dreamcast was awesome.

I still remember how exciting it was to see/hear the boot-up screen 😄

Piracy was rampant on it though. Kind of feel bad having contributed to that but I was a poor teenager.

There’s a non-zero chance that Tim Walz still has his VMUs.

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They still working though? Battery damage? I can't imagine the next scandal, lol

I found a couple of my old VMUs a while back... Luckily the batteries didn't leak and they worked once i found batteries to try em with! The Dreamcast really was awesome 😌

Pretty sure all my Chaos from Sonic Adventure are long dead by now.

Same, lol. I thought this was a post to make me think he was more relatable and cool. Cause that’s how I felt after reading the first paragraph. When I realized who was making the post and his take on it, all I could think was, why is this guys face so small relative to the size of his head!

Exactly. But the reality is the republicans would attack whatever side paints him in a negative light. If Walz was attacking video games the republican spin would be “first they’ll take your guns, THEN they’ll want to tell you how to spend your free time!”
