Remember Ken Kutaragi wanted to make a PlayStation phone?

Well, he'd better get a move on! Sega have just joined up with Vodafone Japan (Soon to be named Soft Bank) to bring us the Dreamcast mobile !!!


Big names are already on board such as Konami with their first game being a classic Konami shooters collection ;-) Here it is showing Gradius II


Here's Taito's first offering - Densha De Go USO !

you must be shitting me. That is the most clever thing I have ever seen in years. Any chance of that being released outside of Japan , Yakumo?

PS: Are the existing DC devkits compatible, and is the internal hardware compliant to that of the original DC?

isn't this fake?!

Edit: i want to see the keyboard!

 

This news has made my day a bit happier. The name "Dreamcast Mobile" just sounds... poetic.

If it weren't a phone, I'd be sure to get one just out of Dreamcast Fanboyism.

Highly unlikely to jump the ocean, right?

 

It's as fake as this ultra rare Sega Saturn.




Yakumo:dance:

 

Thats the proto-type Saturn isn't it?


Or do you really have a silver Saturn?

 

He painted it himself, didn't he?

Also, those are stickers he has put on his own phone, not official Sega stuff. That cheeky scamp, trying to pull the wool over our eyes a lot recently!

 

Shame!

 

a cruel guy! poor Dc fans ;P

anyway, nice painting, what did you use?

 

by the way guys, why don't we all come out with a create a fake contest? yakumo would win but.... who knows?

 

Beautiful, Yakumo.

You, sir, are an "artiste".

 

Cheater

=(

If that Saturns painted, how did you keep the logo, is it a sticker?

And how much are those phone stickers?

 

so is this fake, or not? If so I think a piece of me just died a little today

 

:lol: Sorry for being so cruel guys. Yep, it's fake. Sort of a little joke I thought up to liven the place up a bit. The phone and the games running on it are real. That's my phone but the DC markings are stickers that you can buy from Sega Direct. They come in a pack of 3. DC, Saturn and Mega Drive. There are also 3 sizes. One for phones, one for Nintendo DS and big ones for anything.

The Saturn is one I painted my self with some Japanese paint for plastics, metal and glass. No idea what it is called in English (Type of pain that is). The Saturn logos came with the ones I stuck on my phone. You have to admit though, it was pretty good for a half arsed prank. Even the missus thought I had bought a DC phone. I've added a Sega logo to it since those picture. Looks really cool.

The price of the stickers is 1260yen after postage and tax. They are of really high quality as well. Be careful though. Once they are fully on the surface of what you are sticking them to you'll never get them off. Those little squares around the main DC logo took bloody ages to do. I even had to use a pair of tweezers.

@Karsten - That’s a great idea about making something fake. Come on guys, let’s get creative. The Dreamcast Mobile is the target

Yakumo

 

Thank God. The last thing anyone needs is to fuck their games up by putting them on a 1 inch screen.

 

Tell Nintendo that withtheir Gameboy Micro.

So these are available for the regular DS or only for the Lite?

I might be interested.

 

If I thought it was that much worse than the GBA, DS, or even PSP, I would. The fact is, handhelds are just weak. They're good for extremely long plane rides, and that's about it. Otherwise, I'd rather play it on superior screen with superior sound.

 

The are for eith the lite or the normal DS

YOu and me both. The only time I play hand helds is when I'm on the toilet :lol: I see no other reason to play them in the house when I have a much bigger screen with a good sound system.
