Lady Decafe is as awesome as that whole decade of 2D and 3D gaming! Edit: Dangit: I tried to write "Decade" and autocorrect autoWRONGED it! Update: Hikaru as a $200 addon for the VCD pirt in the Saturn. That wouldve been much better than the Dreamcast.
I remember when Sega Europe invited my friend and I to come sample Planet Harriers at a SEGA arcade test centre they had a the time. I worked for a special Sega website during that period so I had special access and seen things that many people haven't. I was losing the plot when I played Planet Harriers (free play, of course) for I thought the game was awesome, and I told Sega that the game must get ported for their console no matter what. Such a shame that wish, like many others, never materialised. Also played Brave Firefighters and Air Trix back then before it came out in the public arcade, I was really impressed with those games too.
I've been fortunate to be able to play a few of these. Nascar, virtual on, Star Wars Pod racer, top skater; all of these games hold up quite well even today. Top skater, in particular, had a bar that surrounded the skateboard area for convenient grabbing and holding onto the same way one would grip the rear bar on a DDR machine. Good stuff, looking forward to the Chihiro content and the split from Microsoft that produced the Lindbergh
Given the Dreamcast was no slouch in lighting and particle effects for the time; play MDK2 on it if you don't believe me... Would love to see if the Hikaru had a demo to show off it's hardware T&L.
The problem with Hikaru hardware is it was very fragile, broke easily especially if being shipped and it was expensive. It’s super difficult to fix too. I have a planet harriers arcade cabinet and my Hikaru motherboard died :( was really fortunate to find a replacement but for a while I thought I’d have a dead planet harriers cabinet 😢
There is a SEGA Arcade system that is electrically the same as the Original Microsoft XBOX called the SEGA CHIHIRO.(sorry for shouting), I don't know if you could play BUNGIE's HALO Combat Evolved on it.
i was lucky enough to finally play star wars podracer in a bowling hall in denmark back in 2019. it was amazing to finally play the deluxe arcade cabinet. in 2022 i wanted to revisit that bowling hall, but sadly it burned down in 2020 😢
I’m sure this games were high end for it’s time but these games could have been ported to the Xbox hardware which could handle the graphics fidelity. It’s just my opinion 👍
Couple of things to add...POD racer cost $9000 alone for the board (cause of the license added onto it). While the Hikaru is an incredibly powerful system, it is probably the most fragile arcade board ever made. Reason being Sega outsourced the placing of the BGA chips (Ball Grid Array) to a different company and they forgot to tin the balls. Think of it like this, it's basically like spitting on your hand and placing a piece of paper on your hand hoping it will hold on forever. See all those dabs of glue on the board? That was the last resort as Sega didn't want to redo it. Also the only game that really took advantage of the Hikaru was Brave Fire Fighters...all the rest of the games could have been made on a Naomi 1 / 2.
I played only 2 of these games, Episode 1 Racer and Virtual On Force. I didn't like Force much, its slower and neutered compared to OT. Episode 1 Racer was fun in the arcade, probably the best version of SW Racer.
Hey LD, since we're discussing Sega arcade hardware, how about a video about Sega Mega Play? I don't know much about it myself except that it ran a version of Sonic the Hedgehog that was re-coded for maximum quarter obtainment.
Hikaru : light , radiance , or to shine Icarus : flew to close too the sun and melted his wings away (must have been pretty bright indeed) coincidence? most likely , but they do sound very similar phonetically
Makes me want to load up the yee old DEMUL emulator! Hopefully flycast will have the these running someday. Pretty much only reason still have old DEMUL in my emulation station.
NAomi unit is 2x a dream cast in cpu cores dual / gpu cores 5+1 so 6 - then you can serial stack the naomi unit like SLI / crossfire but they work instead of just take your money
Even after the video its hard to see why some of this couldn't be done on dreamcast in some form. Im not saying it could, its just hard without any comparisons or measuring sticks
I think people are confused by this. In 2019 we made the decision to live as digital Nomads, starting in Greece for a few months (the easiest place for us to go to since his parents have a house there) From there we went on to spend months in Romania and Hungry, but the closing of borders during the pandemic killed that life style within 6 months. Greece is lovely but food prices and fuel prices are crazy and we would later learn so are taxes, so would be tough to live there with a digital business, no matter how beautiful it is x
@@LadyDecade I see. Regardless, this was a cool idea that you guys actually went out and tried, while many simply dream about such a move, yet never attempt. Cheers.
Hikaru is the real Dreamcast pro! But there wasnt any reason for this system to actually exist. Most of its games could have been released on regular Naomi with downgrades, but with skilled devs, could have looked great anyway. Brave Firefighters should have been released as a launch Naomi 2 game...Probabluy itr would have been even more impressive and successful there.And also, at least Star Wars and Planet Harriers should have been ported to DC... I mean, the gap between Model 2 and saturn was way wider than the gap between DC and Hikaru, and for example, AM2 made a remarcable job porting VF 2 to Saturn...So more chances to have more than great Hikaru ports of this games to DC, despite the downgrades. Sega always with their weird decisions.
Sega had way more success in the arcade than they did in the living room, but that's more to do with their weird marketing strategy, and unclear direction/quality control on the games
So is the Xbox 360 PS3 PS4 PS5 Xbox one Xbox series X their all more powerful then the Dreamcast the console your talking about was never released nobody ever heard of it and Japan is a big Sega fan then everyone they even had a Sega Store in Japan the Sega died in every region except for Japan

HAH! Decaf

@derrickfinzer_retro And lose all memory of lady latte?

And an excuse for me to remind my wife that our wedding was on 09/09/09.
I am not kidding. We were shotgunned by the judge. It was crazy.

I only got to play Planet Harriers twice. So glad I was able to experience that game.
I ran a location that had Brave Firefighters. I can't tell you how many times I had to get creative to replace the hoses when they broke.
I still think this is an underrated channel. Lady decade is lovely and i love this angle of approaching video game history x x
ANDNYES WE HAVE PLASTIC MONEY HERE
That Lady Decaf comment is epic. Its catchy.
this is real gaming culture

Do you know whether there’s a way to run these on Batocera? Demul is delisted and not supported on it anymore.
I always loved the firefighting arcade game
Great research, cover Atomiswave too.

8:15 now I know where fong got his name in the animated series Reboot that aired on Toonami.
Never fear M'lady. The "Feet People" have arrived.
Lady Decade is one of the most naturally gorgeous people I have ever seen. Hearing that accent speak so much knowledge. My god 😍😍😍
I didn't know Top Skater had a sequel called Air Trix.
Even after the video its hard to see why some of this couldn't be done on dreamcast in some form. Im not saying it could, its just hard without any comparisons or measuring sticks
Hey are you and Top Hat still in Greece or did you all move back to UK? Simply curious and hope things are going well.

Can you...... *emulate Hikaru???*
Brave Firefighters might've been cool with motion controls shame it was never ported home
I thought you were going to talk about the Naomi, too bad the dreamcast didnt use the 3dfx chip it was original design. too bad 3dfx had to leak it

Don’t forget the harrier games inside of other games such as shenmue
Lady decade back again
Love these Dreamcast sucessor videos.
Why does Japan only get these exquisite consoles?
Because arcades were and still are more popular in Japan
Another Great video!
Great Stuff, as always.
Sega had way more success in the arcade than they did in the living room, but that's more to do with their weird marketing strategy, and unclear direction/quality control on the games
Wooo!
Excellent 😊
Miggity Mike
What about a video on the Atomiswave
Detailed as always.
hold it madam decade i think sega's machine is some kind of PC components
arcade machine is unidentical to a home console. we already knowthis
I never played Sega dream cast games
amazing library of games.. hmm I wasn't all that impressed with what I saw
So is the Xbox 360 PS3 PS4 PS5 Xbox one Xbox series X their all more powerful then the Dreamcast the console your talking about was never released nobody ever heard of it and Japan is a big Sega fan then everyone they even had a Sega Store in Japan the Sega died in every region except for Japan
But uhmmm... this doesn't look better than the Dreamcast🤔pretty much the same Level(if this fame footage was real)
Lady Decade!❤❤❤❤❤❤😄
Yes ma'am ❤
atomiswave?
Hello lady Decade. 🎮
YOU LOOK GOOD WITH YOUR STAR TREK OUTFIT😘😛😇😇🤤GOES WITH YOUR EYES
mmmmmmmmm minx
Is this video going to be about my phone? Because my phone is more powerful than the Dreamcast.
If your phone is midrange or better it's more powerful than a PS3.
To add, if your phone is mid range, or higher you can put it between your cheeks.
@@Chalky. If your phone is midrange or better it's more powerful than a Nintendo switch
You looks like Jyggsaw
