May is Shenmonth! That’s right, a whole month devoted to articles about the beloved Dreamcast series ‘Shenmue’. Expect an article a week at the Dreamcast Junkyard and SEGAbits. If writers here or from any other Sega blog wish to participate, feel free to grab the header image above, slap it atop a blog post and write whatever you wish about ‘Shenmue’. A “Top Ten Ugliest NPC Characters” article is up for grabs.
You saw us post them as a rumor, that both Shenmue and Jet Set Radio were coming to XBLA. There have been numerous PartnerNet leaks, newest one being Crazy Taxi, but this one came from a shady source who calls himself the XBOX360LEAKER.
Not only that, other people that have PartnerNet can’t seem to find traces of Jet Set Radio or Shenmue on the services. When users on NeoGAF contacted “XBOX360LEAKER” he said he got the games off of “Test Net”, a service that does not exist. Even worse, he left traces of his photoshop work behind on his ImageShack account.
I think he took advantage of all the news about Dreamcast leaks, decided to play on some classics that fans wanted. A shame really.

Oh, silly Microsoft and their PartnerNet stuff has leaked another gem. This time Jet Set Radio. Hopefully we get it in true widescreen and some nice upscaling. How about take advantage of the second joystick?

All of us here at SEGAbits love huge collections and we all love the Dreamcast. So what about a super rare Dreamcast collection? Sounds like fapping material. Well it basically is.
bel303 over at the AssemblerGames forums has posted his Dreamcast collection and it is very very impressive. Go over there, stare and be jealous.

SEGA mods are the best, but what about a SEGA and Star Wars mod? Holy crap, that sounds amazing. Someone has just done that, its as if they divided by zero. “Pezzapoo” from the Ben Heck forums has put a Dreamcast into a Millennium Falcon toy.
“As soon as I saw these caricature versions of the Star wars toys I thought about the Dreamcast and how the fun little console would feel right at home inside one. Strangely the DC game port facia fitted directly into the toy with about a mill to spare so I knew it was meant to be! Two side docking ring fans keep the hot DC from melting. Lots of soldering and the switch was added to turn on the GDROM. No paint was applied.”
Now I wonder what else we can shove a Dreamcast into?
