After 25 Years, Google Has Finally Killed Dreamcast Web Browser Support







Quote
While Sega shut down Dreamcast's servers many years ago, resourceful fans have been getting consoles online for some time now – and even creating private servers for many of the machine's games in the process.
Unfortunately, Google has discontinued support for the web browsing feature on Sega's console. The change has apparently impacted many legacy platforms, and it's hard to complain too much – after all, the Dreamcast was released 27 years ago.
The good news is that alternatives still work – including ...

I'm honestly not that much of a gamer anymore. It's like I got "gamers block" or something. For example, I was eager to get Sonic CrossWorld and Rumble, but I still yet to play it.

Take your time, they're not going anywhere.
CrossWorlds at least,
dunno about Rumble next year but right now at least in mobile it's still SEGA's top downloaded mobile game.



but if you can't skip it, then that's just bad game designing?

If we can't skip it then it's not side quest anymore, it's becoming part of the main mission.

*Games I have played in the past, but want to play again.
**Waiting for finished development before playing.

I might add the New Virtual Fighter Project to the list, given it triggers memories of playing VF for the first time for me, but I'd rather see it more fleshed out before I decide on giving it a go.
Now that Dolphin Emulator works for me, I can eventually cross off Skies of Arcadia and Shadow the Hedgehog from the list.

Dunno what to do for the Dreamcast games, though, I don't know. ReDream seems to be the best bet, but I don't like I have to pay a premium fee for better graphics.

Even thought Google are unintentionally a butt for killing Dreamcast support, Dreamcast will persevere.

Is Rumble on it's last legs already?

That's true.

Shouldn't you cross the list after you finished it/played it until bored?

.Even thought Google are unintentionally a butt for killing Dreamcast support, Dreamcast will persevere.

The browser's still worked with FrogFind.

Is Rumble on it's last legs already?

No, it's still good right now.

That's true.

"Correcting The Timeline Of Gaming History" - Here's Virtua Fighter 4 'Running' On Dreamcast

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJI1Shc9gPo

Before you get too excited, this doesn't automatically mean the full game will ever be ported to Dreamcast – while Esppiral has managed to get the assets running on the system, there's no animation or physics at work here, and only a single character is shown, Akira (although it's worth noting he's rendered twice).
However, @falco_girgis, who knows his way around Sega's 128-bit console, believes such a port could happen if the ...
