It was an interesting set-up.
Is the sequel any good?

Yes, but all the actors who played the main characters are different in the sequel so it'll need some minutes to familiarize ourselves with them.

I've yet to try C.A.R.D. Revolution. I "suppose" I can try the ROM if it works fine without internet access. I don't know if online functions of Dreamcast or GameCube games can work on emulators or not. Or if C.A.R.D. Revolution needs to be online to play.

But, sometimes I wonder why Sega hasn't made an "answer" to Pokémon TCG, as C.A.R.D. Revolution goes to show they could make a TCG if they wanted to.

May be because Phantasy Star Online Episode III: C.A.R.D. Revolution did not sell well so they abandon that kind of gameplay.
Right now the game's gameplay was appreciated and praised for solid and well-thought-out mechanics, but that's not the case when it was released.
Most PSO fans back then expected it still to be action RPG instead of a turn-based card game format.
Personally I love SEGA's trying to do something different but they're not supposedly naming a spin-off game into a sequel (Episode III).

I've heard one of the best ways to learn a new language is just raw input from it. Such as watching anime in general without subtitles and just figuring out the conversation as you hear it. It's how babies learn when they grow up and that skill is still with us, if given enough time surrounded by an unfamiliar language.

In term of speaking and conversation may be.
But I doubt we would be able to write hiragana, katakana, or kanji just by watching anime.

I wonder if those kids will grow up and star in Puyo Puyo games someday?

I doubt it.
They're like Huey, Dewey, and Louie.
They'll stay forever as kids since it served the purpose.

Problem: People becoming wise to Sega of Japan's association with the yakuza.
Solution: Make game series of Yakuza, depicting them honourable and likeable.

I mean... it worked.

Still in the story it's only Kiryu/Ichiban and his friends who are honourable.
Most of the other yakuza characters are as dirty as they are in the real world.

I highly doubt it.
But I can dream though.
A man can dream.

Back then I doubt SEGA'd ever make events in Indonesia, but it's happening ... 30 years later.

There's no info posted about the physical copy he has pictures of, so not sure what the story is there

Ah, I already add this in 2026 List since NicoKlem (the developer) in their X account said both digital and physical game will be released in 2026.
That physical version photo is still a mock-up photo made using AI.
It also has a different English title : PDA (shortened from Prince de Arcade, or something close to that, I forgot)

While I knew the Dreamcast Gun, I'm not familiar with LightConn. Is it worth it?

Ever since getting The House of the Dead: Remake on Steam, I did consider getting a lightgun. But I don't play lightgun games that often, and I'd rather if it's a Sega lightgun. Like how Sega collaborates with Retro-Bit to recreate their controllers for modern PC use.

Well, if you don't play lightgun games that often, I don't think it's worth it.
Better save it for a controller for games that you'd play them often.
