Hi, I was lucky enough to get the chance to interview Bernie Stolar about his involvement with the creation of the Dreamcast. There’s plenty of other Sega chat and discussion about 3Dfx, NEC and unrealised plans he had for the Dreamcast. Check it out here: http://www.thedreamcastjunkyard.co.uk/2018/03/an-interview-with-bernie-stolar.html Ps - hope it’s ok to post this. If not, mods do your thang!
This is fantastic and such a coincidence as I was just looking up Zoom platform today saw Bernie's involvement.
Very nice interview! Doesn't add much to the mythos, but Bernie was I think unfairly blamed for the DC's demise. And to blame him for killing the Saturn is of course hilarious. It was dead already.
Sega Japan was ignoring anything Sega USA said at that point. Then they did it all (modem, etc) as the Dreamcast. If they had gone with 3dfx and GLIDE they might still be in the console business.
