Last year, we reported on an awesome Kickstarter for a brand new Dreamcast game. Titled Alice Dreams Tournament, this game is essentially a Bomberman-inspired action-puzzle game designed by French developers Julien Desquenne (aka Patbier) and Nicolas Pochet (aka Poche) with musical contributions by Philippe Vendi.

In their latest Kickstarter update, they announced that the development for the game has finally been finished. To thank the fans for all their patience, the team released a making-of video, which shows the progress of Alice Dreams Tournament.

The Alice Team will be at the Paris Games Week on Friday, October 28, 2016 to show off the game and answer any burning questions you might have. Check out their video above!

Streets of rage remake could've been on consoles if Sega wasn't so damn stupid

It was for the better tbh whoever did that soundtrack did their homework on dance music to the point where parts of yuzo samples were re done and and clear as fukk. Marshall Jeffersons move your body to using the soul 2 soul break etc I loved it

Reading through this makes me think back to my childhood in the 90's. Looking back the Dreamcast was the last console that I felt was for me as a gamer. Maybe it was because it was the last console I owned before I became an adult. Since the Dreamcast I've owned a PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360, and a PS4 but I didn't get the same feeling I got with the Dreamcast, Saturn, N64, Genesis, PS1, NES, etc. I still have a Saturn at my mom's house. When I go visit for Thanksgiving i'm going to bring it back home.

Question for the brehs that play the new games on the Dreamcast with homebrew. Do I have to modify a Dreamcast to play the games? I'm not really technically savvy so I wouldn't know.

  • All-new party mode for arcade events
Read the full press release after the break.


You read that right, Daytona is back and just as it was first time around in the 90s, it’s set to be a game changer. Daytona USA is the pinnacle of arcade racing and now Sega is ready to bring its #1 racer screeching into the 21st century!

It revolutionised the arcade scene when it was first launched in 1994, and this franchise can deservedly lay claim to bold statements such as iconic, classic and legendary.

This brand new version, Daytona 3 Championship USA, features three brand new tracks including a recreation of the newly renovated Daytona International Speedway. In addition, the original three classic courses have been remastered for the modern era. New cars and new game modes bring more for players old and new to experience.

Sega has gone all out on a cabinet design to do this global brand justice and make it stand out from the pack. The cabinet with 47” LED monitor is linkable for up to eight players and lit from top to bottom. It even has a moulded under seat engine! New game features include a live in-game camera system so you can enjoy maximum bragging rights as you overtake your friends! Also brand new to Daytona 3 is the ‘Live TV’ inspired spectator video billboard marquee with 27” display. This allows spectators to see what’s happening in the race, whether it’s a crash, a pass for position or to find out who’s winning or losing!

“This is a game changer. This is a premium game that delivers on quality, player experience and operator features that sets a very high bar for arcade video racing games. Importantly we have based it on the original game engine that gave us the amazing ‘AI’ and ‘catch up’ feeling that we all grew to love” commented Patrick Michael, Head of Local R&D.

The game also has an all-new party mode allowing operators to run special events easily. In addition, to assist engineers, there is the introduction of ‘Sega-IQ Intelligent Service Menus’; these are designed to offer prompts and troubleshooting advice when the onsite technician is maintaining the game.

“At SEGA we have always been passionate about developing the best arcade racing games, it’s part of our DNA, so to have the opportunity to work on this title that truly captures the spirit of the racing scene in Daytona is nothing short of an honour.” commented Sega’s CEO Paul Williams.

Whether players enjoyed the game back in the 90s or experience it now for the first time, they’ll find it’s easy to pick up and fun to master; with simple and quick menu options they will be straight to the starting grid. Confidence will come from the first lap and the competitive spirt will kick in as players find themselves challenging their rivals for the lead!
Developed and manufactured to the highest quality, Daytona 3 Championship USA will feature in game rooms and FEC’s for years to come.

Have you got what it takes to take the flag again…. because Daytona is back!
