Gamecube games on my Dreamcast?!? Now I can finally play Sonic Adventure 2 on a Dreamcast!
And this was definitely a unique story. Couldn't really figure out where it was going for a while, which was a good thing. I wouldn't really call it "creepy" per se, but it was fun to listen to before bed.
MARIO SUNSHINE ON A DREAMCAST POG
But adventure 2 battle

The coolest detail is the “kids” represented the sixth generation of video games.
Sammy = SEGA
Micheal = Microsoft
Nicholas = Nintendo

IceyPie: releases DreamCube
2020: Maybe I don’t wanna be the bad guy anymore
1666: Wait... You're not playing god are you?
November : HAHA SECOND CIVIL WAR GOES BRRRBRBRBRBRRRRR
@@EllieCollie you probably shouldn’t have said that
@@UnhingedZombieBear2001: ha ha kaBO-
my man, another great work as expected.. the wait was worth it.
Although, i think Substitute is still a bit better than this one, but that's just me.
i think substitute is good but i think i wiill like this
Substitute was amazing
Substitute was one of the best creepypastas I ever heard/saw
I have a question: HOW DID HE SAVE HIS GAMES
I’d say through the Dreamcast’s VMU
@@nuclear_blue I think if you utilized the VMU in the story it would’ve been pretty cool
Magic
ooo
magick
@@nuclear_bluemaybe there was a slot on the dreamcube for the GameCube memory cards (also what did the dreamcube look like, did it look like a sega cd model 1 or model 2
This kinda reminds me of the Bleemcast, a way to play PS1 games on the Dreamcast.
This sammy guy seems pretty clumsy ngl
No u
@@jamesrgamesoffical :pensive:
Sega is clumsy Lmao
Thank you for the reply very dumb kid!
@@verydumbkid4568 💀
This was well worth the wait sure the thing about the characters having different messages is a bit cliche but it was still very good
Personally, I'm glad the messages had thought put into them rather than it just saying "Hail Satan" over and over. Plus, the messages actually gave clues and foreshadowed the story, giving their inclusion a purpose rather than it be there just to spook us.
Yeah I agree thats why I said "a little cliche" instead of just "cliche"
how is it a little cliche tho
Well done Jamie, this turned out really well! You did such a great job with this one, keep it up! DreamCube is so good.
💚
This was more of a history lesson with a huge ass build up more than a creepypasta
God damn, I was expecting a "hyper-realistic blood" story but this, this is something else. So damn good! Wasn't scary, just interesting, and compelling!
3:36 “there just weren’t any games that interested me…”
*”Then I heard about the virtual boy-“*
19:48 that was a perfect description of "getting over it"
No
ok
@christherage stop the spam--stop the spam
I didn’t even sub to u, came to ur Chanel, and saw u posted 50 seconds ago. What a coincidence
well you better sub to him u uncool being
Trepidation from BIT.TRIP CORE does fit a creepypasta’s start.
By the way, I really enjoyed this creepypasta. I love how balanced the story is, sometimes scary, sometimes sad and sometimes memorable. It makes the personality of Shawn more dynamic and that’s what makes the story better.
Edit: Gotta love the pixel design in the tree story. It reminds me of BIT.TRIP and the art style of the saga characters.
Also, I have only just realised that the four pixel characters represent Sega, Nintendo, PlayStation and Xbox all in order.
It’s all about the consoles wars.
“The new kid took on the master. (Master System)” The new kid is Sega and the master is Nintendo.
“Which was the genesis of a new story (Sega Genesis)” The new story was PlayStation joining in and the advancement of 3D gaming in the gaming industry.
“But when they couldn’t keep it up, and fell from Saturn. (Sega Saturn)” The new console Xbox and the PlayStation 2 dominated the generation and the sales of both consoles were poor.
“And it all ended when they woke up from the Dream. (Dreamcast)” Now, Nintendo has grew back up and the Xbox and PlayStation thrive, with Sega being there to see it happen. The story of Sammy also correlates to this. The dates of their births correlate to the dawn of the new consoles. With the story being the same. Nintendo was the Master, Sega challenging him until eventually he got to the top. Until, PlayStation came and overtook him, with Sega falling from the top and being left out of the wars, only to make games.
EDIT: Nevermind he told it in the video. Pointless comment,
I was trying to find the channel named "snapcube" and accidentally fell on this
Welcome
Ayyo did u find DA snapcube????
lol
MY MAN. DREAMCUBE IS SO GOOD. I LOVE HOW YOU DO YOUR CREEPYPASTAS. IM MAKING DESIGNS AS WE SPEAK. I'M SO PROUD I'M EXCITED FOR THE OTHERS!! KEEP GOING JAMIE!! YOU'RE DOING GREAT YOU'RE IMPROVING ALOT. IM SO EXCITED WHAT YOU HAVE NEXT IN STORE!! (Even though you kinda gave them out in the direct shhh-)
Plot twist:it’s called dream cube because this is all a dream
Me: I am GAMECUBian.
Dreamcast person: No, I'm Dreamcastian.
Dreamcubians: Amateurs
@@TheGoldNShadow Gamecubian: ._.
This was great I recently discovered your channel and love the content you make!
Hey man, this is u/MintKirby, just coming to say that DreamCube was a nice creepypasta, and the last 10 minutes intrigued (and confused) me a lot (btw I’m sure the closing dialogue about Sammy being there to see the victor of the competitor’s tree is a metaphor of Sega being a software developer and along with other third-party game companies will be there to celebrate the winning competitor)
27:38 for those of you who didn't notice, the kid took on the master, (sega master system), which was the genesis of a new story (sega genesis) he fell from saturn, (sega saturn) to finnaly wake up from a dream, (sega dreamcast)
I noticed that too.
I love your creepypastas, music, and videos! Keep up the good work!
Lol, the GameCube commercials mixed with Dreamcast's ads at the credits of the video though XD
This was a really good story. Not on the same level as Substitute, but definitely one of your better ones. It's insane how you can turn normal life into something really enjoyable to listen to in the first half. The only thing I didn't like was that the main character had to be pretty dumb to directly disobey what the console told him, but seems to be really smart about how he approaches Luigis Mansion at the end. It's probably just me though.
I thought he disobeyed it out of curiosity? He had followed that instruction for at least 3 years.
Yes, but I'd think he would rather not potentially break his DreamBox
He didn't know the system would brick itself though, well opinions be opinions and I'll respect yours
one of your best creepypastas sad you only get views from eteled and wii deleted you
21:31 thought he would say “hello Mario” like that one commercial
This feels more like a Feelspasta than a Creepypasta.
these stories are already memories, i remember when i used be watching them with headphones in.
Yeah, it’s nostalgic
I noticed an Easter Egg, the boy in the video is named Sammy which could be a reference to SammyClassicSonicFan!
And also Nicholas could be a reference to NICKtendo too!
Sammy is (likely, idk I didn't make the idea) a reference to SEGA Sammy Holdings, SEGAs parent company. Dunno about the Nicktendo one though
I also realized that
This feels more like just a nice story instead of a creepypasta
Sammy:Sega
Nicholas:Nintendo
Simon:PlayStation
Micheal:Xbox
James:stadia
Seth:mobile gaming
Steven:pc gaming
Not gonna lie being able to play gamecube games on dreamcast would be pretty damn cool.
I originally found this channel when looking up info about the virtual boy, one of the search recommendations given to me by safari was “virtual boy creepypasta” I searched it and found his video “never play the virtual boy for over 15 minutes” so I watched it and I liked it and watched more of hid videos and I then subscribed. I never knew I needed this channel in my life, but I did.
Sammy=Sega
Nicholas=Nintendo
Simon=Sony/Playstation
Michael=Microsoft/Xbox
It makes sense if you consider their colors and when they were born
(Sega master system was released in 1982 in NA,
NES was released in 1985 in NA,
PS1 was released in 1995 in NA,
and the Xbox was released in 2001 in NA)
Edit: Sammy climbing so fast, then falling off the tree is a metaphor of the rush to get the Sega Saturn on the market, then flopping, and the hospital is another metaphor for sega trying to redeem themselves with the Dreamcast, it succeeded, but at a cost, their ability to create consoles.
go to 26:50 for more context
Edit2: I know that Shawn partially explains what I said, I just expanded in to more detail
I’m two minutes in and i’m already amazed. Good job, as always.
Another good one Jamie! I really like this one
Icey pies creepypastas are probably the best stories out there no over the top gore at random and all that over cliche stuff
18:44-19:01 When you get blue shelled at the end of a race.
Ayyyy, he used curiosity instead of something dumb
The console wars never end...
This is marvelous! Your are genius! Congratulations!
His creepypastas are so good, they aren't just creepypastas anymore.
Even though He stopped making creepypastas, I will always remember this creepypasta as one of my favorites
You should make a creepypasta about the soggy poopies
@ElysiaTDM’S CHANNEL THINGY Productions! its a scary topic man
This is an great story. Good job
Ah yes, that circle shaped edition with a big smile, and eyes far away from each other.
it's pretty good not gonna lie i waited a long time for this
THIS IS AMAZING WOAAAA-
This is amazing!!
I honestly hope you make some form of sequel to this.
I’ve been waiting for this
This is so emotional I almost cried 😢
Best creepypasta (or sadpasta) I've ever heard! Oh yeah I know no one cares but I'm reworking one of my creepypastas (mario kart 46)
Some constructive criticism: don't you think it was kind of convenient how the console unlocked basically right after the narrator decided to try it again
This is true
Oh cool my first like from a content creator
This is so good
2 underrated consoles in one!
The fact that it's just a ambience, and then cuts to the dreamcast commercial sound was kind of funny 26:33
But um, look guys look, it's one of our greatest achivements, the Sega and Nintendo Dreamcube
all i can imagine when i see the gamecube start up screen are the memes
youtube has got to start letting me know when you upload new videos. this one almost flew right by me!
Next Creepypasta:
The gamecast
13:34 there's robots underground
On March 31, 2001, the Sega Dreamcast was discontinued worldwide. In case you were unaware, the Dreamcast was Sega's fifth and final game system released in 1999. The Dreamcast had a good launch, but the system ultimately failed due to poor sales and fierce competition with the Sony PlayStation 2 among others.
After the discontinuation of the Dreamcast, Sega backed out of the hardware business, now producing games for other gaming platforms. But nonetheless, the Dreamcast is considered one of the best gaming systems ever made, and even after its discontinuation in 2001, independent developers would continue to support it, creating and releasing games for the platform.
But also in 2001, Nintendo released the GameCube, a system that had a much longer lifespan, lasting from 2001 to 2007, but was also considered a failure due to lackluster sales, only controlling about 13% of the video game market in 2003, and other than Sega porting some of their old Dreamcast games to the GameCube, these two systems had very little to do with each other. The Dreamcast was already discontinued long before the GameCube launched and in terms of sheer power, the GameCube was more capable.
But in 2003, a peripheral for the Dreamcast was created. A peripheral that had such a limited release that finding any documentation on it is nearly impossible.
I got my Dreamcast on Christmas of 2000, when I was around nine-years-old. I remember at school kids would constantly talk about how awesome it was- its graphics, its games, its online features. Everyone was in love with the Dreamcast, and I knew I had to see it for myself. Almost every day leading up to the end of Christmas break, I was playing Sonic Adventure and Crazy Taxi on my Dreamcast. Everyone at school was right. These graphics were amazing, and the games were great too.
However, the first weeks after school started up again, the Dreamcast craze stated to die down, and kids started talking more about the PlayStation 2, a much more powerful system. But, I still kept playing on my Dreamcast, even after its discontinuation in March of that year. But as the months progressed, I started to lose intetest. There just weren't any more games that interested me.
But in October of 2001, a couple of my friends were talking about this new system to release the following month. The Nintendo GameCube.
I remember my bestfriend Max flipping through the pages in the Nintendo Power magazine to a page of GameCube previews on it, and those previews alone got me very excited. The graphics looked amazing, not necessarily by today's standards, but back then, it was revolutionary. They looked better than the Dreamcast and had a lot of compelling games being teased in the previews. I knew right then and there I wanted it.
But when I got home and told my mom about the GameCube and how I wanted it for Christmas that year, she was quite opposed.
"You already have that Dreamcast," she would say. "why don't you play on that?"
I-I was disappointed. I tried asking my dad instead but even he wouldn't budge. It took me a while to accept that I was stuck with an outdated console and, being a ten-year old with no allowance, probably wouldn't be able to get a GameCube for some time.
So, the GameCube launched and because my best friend Max had gotten it for Christmas, I would frequently go over to his house and play with him, and I could say that it blew me away. Everything that I had seen in the previews was one to one with the final product. But even as 2002 was coming to a close, I wanted a GameCube.
However, one day in December of the same year, my mother dragged me out to go shopping with her, an activity that I was never fond of. We went to the mall and wanted to shop after shop, all of which had items that I didn't really want or find interesting. But as we walked past the Electronics store, I noticed something in the display window. An advertisement for something called DreamCube.
"Play thousands of GameCube games on your Sega Dreamcast! Coming Early 2003"
This caught my eye. A device that would allow me to play GameCube games in my Dreamcast? It was like a dream come true! I stopped my
mom and turned her attention to the advertisement, hoping that the concept would appeal to her.
"I don't know, Sean. We'll see."
We continued walking, and I looked back in disappointment. I ended up forgetting about the DreamCube, mainly because there was little to no information about it, even online.
But on April 6, 2003, my 12th birthday, I opened up my last gift, a DreamCube, along with a GameCube controller and Luigi's Mansion. I was ecstatic, and although I didn't get a GameCube system, I was happy that I would now be able to play GameCube games on my Dreamcast. I thanked my mother and rushed to my room where I hooked it up.
The DreamCube itself was a disk drive that connected to the serial port on the Dreamcast, mainly due to the fact that the GameCube used proprietary minidiscs as opposed to regular-sized disks. It also came with an instruction manual, and a Dreamcast controller to GameCube controller converter plug, which would plug into anywhere the Dreamcast controller port to allow a GameCube controller to be used.
Upon building up the Dreamcast with the discs inserted into the DreamCube disc drive, a customized startup sequence played, which was somewhat like a combination of the Dreamcast and GameCube startups. After the startup sequence, the screen displayed copyright information regarding Visionary Inc., the developers of the DreamCube, as well as a warning.
"WARNING: DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, USE THIS DEVICE FOR STANDARD DREAMCAST GAMES."
This warning was rather interesting to me. Why was I not able to use the DreamCube with regular Dreamcast games? These questions were short-lived however, as I shifted my attention to Luigi's Mansion as the game's title screen appeared.
As for the graphics quality of the DreamCube, it was noticeably lower compared to an actual GameCube. This is probably because the GameCube was superior to the Dreamcast in terms of specs, which probably meant that the game had to be downscaled in order to properly run. The gameplay experience, however, was nearly identical to the experience I've had at friends' houses. I had a ton of fun. Luigi's Mansion truly lived up to the screenshots I saw in the Nintendo Power magazine two years prior.
The game was quite an unusual take on most Mario games- you play as Luigi, who won a mansion in the contest he had entered, and he goes to the mansion to find that it is actually haunted and his brother, Mario, is missing. Instead of running, jumping, and stomping on Goombas, you're instead exploring the mansion and sucking up ghosts in a vacuum.
It was a very short game, but I really liked it overall. It was very unique and charming. As time went on, I bought more GameCube games to play on my DreamCube. I had friends pointing out how inefficient and weird it was to play GameCube games on my Dreamcast and while I somewhat agree with them, I would take what I could get.
But a few months after my birthday, I noticed something. I couldn't find a DreamCube anywhere else. I would go to the mall with my mother and at the Electronics store in which I first saw it, it had no traces of the product. No posters, no reserved shelf space, not even a listing online. It did strike me as kind of odd, searching for info online led me to some articles from local sites talking about the device, and that's about it.
It did linger on my mind for some time. I wondered why it seemed that the DreamCube disappeared from the store shelves, but as time went on, I eventually just stopped thinking about it.
A few years passed, and I found myself using the DreamCube less and less. It was a good accessory, I was just getting somewhat tired of it. I've gotten more GameCube games such as Animal Crossing and Super Smash Bros. Melee and Metroid Prime, but I found myself getting interested in other things in gaming around that time.
One of these interests was the Xbox 360 and because I actually had an allowance during that time it came out, I was able to save up and buy one. All in all, my DreamCube remained essentially untouched, only picking it up if I was in the mood to play any GameCube games, until the end of 2006.
I was bored and had nothing to do but seemingly out of nowhere, I remembered the warning screen that would show up when booting up the DreamCube. The one that said not to use the device when running standard Dreamcast games. It was really just a split-second thought I had when I booted it up for the first time, so I didn't really understand why this is coming back to me now.
Nonetheless, out of sheer curiosity, I got the Dreamcast out and hooked it up along with my DreamCube. Instead of inserting a GameCube disc in the DreamCube's disk drive, I inserted a Dreamcast disc into the console. I hesitantly pressed the Power button and sat down in front of my TV.
I was met with a black screen. No startup animation. No error message. Nothing. Just a black screen. It took a second to fully process what had happened. I had likely just bricked my Dreamcast, or at the very least, the DreamCube.
I turned off the system and detached the DreamCube's serial port and tried again, just to make sure I didn't brick the entire system. Nothing. All that was shown was still the black screen.
I slumped back into my seat. I had just bricked my Dreamcast! All because my curiosity got the better of me. I was reasonably upset, but I was also confused as to how you would brick the system just attempting to run a Dreamcast game with the DreamCube connected to the system. It didn't make much sense to me. I was disappointed.
Although I hadn't played much GameCube or Dreamcast games for a while up until that point, it was still a system that I enjoyed and had memorable experiences with.
Regardless of my disappointment for not just breaking my system, but also because my curiosity had gotten the better of me and ended up not following the simple instructions that were given to me at the start, I ended up counting my losses and moved on and so, time passed. I slowly began to forget about the DreamCube, and in turn, the Dreamcast.
But when I was 20 and in university, something happened that reignited my interest.
I was living in a dorm while attending MIT from 2009 to 2013 and while I was on break in 2011, I decided to go visit my parents, who still live in the house I grew up in. It was great to see them again. We got caught up, had some laughs. And then during a conversation, my father said this.
"Hey Sean, you remember that Dreamcast thing you had when you were younger?"
"Yeah, I-I do. I remember I accidentally broke it trying to play a Dreamcast game with the DreamCube I had with it." I responded.
"DreamCube? You mean the thing we bought you that let you play those GameCube games you wanted?" My mother asked.
"That's why you stopped playing it?"
After I bricked my Dreamcast, I didn't tell my parents, mainly out of fear that they would get angry at me.
"Yeah, but I kind of forgot about it after all this time. What made you bring it up?" I asked.
My parents explained that while looking through the attic one day, they found a box containing my Dreamcast with the DreamCube add-on, as well as the controllers and games for both systems. I was fairly intrigued by this, but I explained to them how the Dreamcast was bricked and that I doubted that I would be able to use it again.
Nonetheless, I left with a few boxes of my old things, including the one with my Dreamcast and DreamCube. When I got back to my dorm, my roommate had left to go work at his part-time job, so I brought the boxes from out of my vehicle and into my dorm and instead of studying, I decided to rummage through the old boxes for a nostalgia trip. I found some of my old comic books, sketchbooks, and even a few t-shirts five sizes too small. And the I got to the box with my Dreamcast.
I opened it up to find the system, the DreamCube, and the games with the controllers. I knew that it was bricked, but I had an overwhelming urge to give it another go. I knew full well that a console can't just unbrick itself, but I just had to see if it was still unplayable.
With a sigh, I began setting up the system with the DreamCube add-on. I put the Luigi's Mansion disc into the disk drive, attached the GameCube controller to the DreamCube's controller conversion plug and inserted it into the Dreamcast controller port, and then I pressed the Power button. I expected a black screen, but to my disbelief, the system booted.
It booted up with the DreamCube's customized startup animation and showed the warning saying not to use the device with standard Dreamcast games. I was shocked! How was this happening?! The system was bricked when I was 15 and hasn't worked since. What happened that somehow caused the system to unbrick itself?
Luigi's Mansion booted, and out of sheer curiosity, I proceeded to play. My save was still there, so I unloaded it. Everything worked as it should. I started in Professor E. Gadd's lab, and I was given the choice of where I want to go. I went to the mansion and explored a little bit, but I didn't really have much reason to continue beyond that. Everything worked as it should, so I headed back to the mansion's foyer and spoke to the Toad next to the door.
This is how the game is typically saved. The Toad would tell you something regarding the current events in the game, and a Save prompt would appear. I've gone through this process numerous times in the past, but in this specific instance, instead of the normal dialogue, it said something that, at the time, I had difficulty processing.
"Where is the Sun? It hasn't come out since March 31, 2001. It's cold and dark. Everybody is screaming. 3914 days have passed since the Sun last fell, and everyone's still hoping for it to come back. But me? I don't know how to feel about it. Part of me feels as if we're better off. It's just the end of an era, I guess..."
This line of dialogue left me stumped. Why was this here? I didn't understand it at the time but for some reason, it kind of intrigued me. I had never seen this kind of dialogue before, and it left me both confused and curious.
I continued playing the game. I figured that because this was set up through a dialogue box, I could find more lines of dialogue like this by finding random NPCs and talking to them.
I got a different response for every NPC I spoke to. Some were longer than others, but here were some of the most notable to me.
This one I saw while speaking to the Toad on the balcony.
"Getting to the top is hard. Like, very hard. You need a lot of strength if you want to pass the others. But when I started pushing harder, I actually made it a decent amount. But I should've known that it would've all crashed down quickly..."
This next one I saw while speaking to the Toad in the outhouse in the backyard.
"I remember holding a few parties while I was 'still in the game'. Those were good times. But after the last one, I couldn't keep my balance."
I found another one while speaking to the Toad in the bathroom.
"I get phone calls asking when I'm coming back, and I always have to tell them that I'm not. That's the one thing people don't get. Why can't they just move on? Why can't they let me live in peace?"
And then the last one from the Toad in the courtyard.
"I don't need help climbing. I don't even want to climb anymore. They keep trying to make me climb again, even though they should know by know that I'm not coming back. Ever. I almost lost everything during my first fall, and yet, I got out alive. But if I ever come back, I would certainly lose so much more."
All of this was very strange to me, but I still felt captivated. I didn't know what to make of it, but it really seemed as if it was some kind of puzzle that I needed to solve, but even at that, why was it here?
I tried to analyze what I've seen so far, and if it held any sort of relevance or meaning, but due to the cryptic nature, it had me thinking for a while.
But it then occured to me that I have to go to another specific area to get more information, so I traveled throughout the mansion going from room to room interacting with nearly everything in them, hoping that it would trigger something, anything!
Nothing happened, and I thought I was at a dead end, but then I remembered the dialogue that started this quest. The text heavily related to climbing and after some thought, I figured that I might have to climb something, somewhere in or around the mansion, but I didn't know what to climb specifically. There are too many climbable areas in the game that I could name off the top of my head, which made this task slightly more difficult.
I tried to think of a climbable area in the game that could have at least some sort of environmental relevance to these mysterious pieces of dialogue, and then I remembered at the roof of the mansion.
There is a ladder that leads to the top of the chimney. I thought that I might as well try that first, so I made my way to the rooftop and positioned myself in front of the ladder. I took a deep breath in both hesitation and excitement as to what I might find, and then I began climbing.
But instead of stopping once reaching the top, it just continued. It reminded me of the Infinite Staircase of Super Mario 64, where you couldn't reach the top until you collected 70 Power Stars.
But I continued climbing, wondering if it could take me anywhere, and at first, it didn't seem to end but considering the fact that this ladder was never infinite in a normal playthrough of Luigi's Mansion, something had to be at the end. I just needed to keep going.
A few minutes went by, and I was beginning to feel as if I wouldn't be able to find anything here, and then I, once again, hit a dead end. But then I noticed something. As I was climbing, a white light slowly filled the screen. I didn't expect this, but I kept climbing until the screen turned completely white. I let go of the analog stick and sat there, waiting for something to happen and to my surprise, a video began playing.
"Hello. I would like to introduce you to a boy named Sammy. Hello, Sammy. Sammy was born in 1982 and led an average life.
His friend Nicholas was born in 1985, and they were the best of friends.
They laughed, they danced! And most importantly, they climbed the Competitors' tree together.
The Competitors' tree was the largest tree in town, and the best tree to climb for young Sammy and Nicholas.
They climbed it every day together and when they climbed the Competitors' tree, they were rivals, but at the end of the day, it was all in the name of good fun.
One day, Sammy and Nicholas met a new friend, Simon, born in 1995, joined Sammy and Nicholas's competition, and the friendship between them grew faster than ever.
Nicholas was the best climber, at least, until Simon came along, who surpassed Nicholas further than he had ever expected.
Sammy, on the other hand, was slower in the start, but he eventually sped up and climbed higher.
He slipped a few times, but has to be expected.
Eventually, he was able to surpass Nicholas, although for a very short time.
But one day, everything would change for these three fearless friends.
Sammy climbed and climbed and miraculously, managed to surpass both Nicholas AND Simon!
Sammy decided that he would stop to celebrate, but this was short-lived.
As Sammy danced on his little branch, Simon climbed higher and higher until he arrived at Sammy's position.
Sammy was startled and fell off the branch. He fell a long way, and with a thud and a crunch, he was on the ground.
Sammy did not get up, which means the ambulance had to take him to the hospital to help his injuries.
The doctors took Sammy to the trauma bay, where he received many kinds of treatment.
Sammy was hooked up to various machines to help him breathe that were connected to him by tubes inserted in different areas of Sammy's body.
The doctors managed to save Sammy's life, but at a cost. Sammy lost the ability to use his legs, which meant that he could no longer climb the Competitors' tree with Nicholas, Simon and their new friend, Michael, born in 2001.
At first, Sammy was sad but later on, he realized that just because he could not join the action does that mean he can't see the action.
So, Sammy went to the Competitors' tree every day to cheer on Nicholas, Simon, and Michael as they continued on their adventure.
To this day, nobody has made it to the top of the tree yet, but Sammy feels comfort knowing that when someone does eventually make it up there, he will be there to see it."
At first, I didn't know how I should have interpreted the video. It only seemed to make things more confusing.
The screen turned to black, and displayed the following message.
"You're probably confused right now, questioning what you just saw. I can't give you a straight answer, but I'll give you a hint.
What you just saw was history, the aftermath of a long battle. Two competitors came head to head, and both were defeated by the new kid on the block.
One of them got out alive, while the other became a shell of its former self. I grew up to see it all happen.
The new kid took on the Master, which was the Genesis of a new story. But they couldn't keep it up, and fell from Saturn, and it all ended when they woke up from the Dream.
I'm going to assume that that you're reading this sometime in the late 2000s or early 2010s, since we have programmed the DreamCube to essentially 'lock up' both itself and the Dreamcast when a GD-ROM was used with the DreamCube add-on, of course, only for a certain period of time.
I'm just going to say this. Let it rest. Let them be in peace. You don't need to keep playing with this add-on.
It was never meant to be made anyway, which is why we removed all references to it online and in stores.
You are free to relive your memories, but this is just unnecessary. There is no point in supporting a system that met its end two years after it launched.
The Sega Dreamcast was the end of an era, an era of success and failure, and it will always live on in the legacy it left behind.
Thanks for your support,

It is now safe to turn off your console."
I took a few minutes to think about this message. I paced around the room trying to think of some sort of significance all this might have, and I later came up with a conclusion, at least in my interpretation of it.
Everything that the system had been showing me, from the Luigi's Mansion dialogue to the mysterious dialogue message was telling the story of Sega's success and eventual failure, and it began to make sense as I thought about it more.
Sega was climbing up the Competitors' tree with the success of the Genesis, and fell off with the failure of the Saturn and Dreamcast. But there was still far, far more that I didn't know, like why all this was created in the first place and simply, why the message stated that the DreamCube was never meant to be released. Those were things that I didn't have explanations for.
I understood what it was telling me, but I didn't understand why. I looked back at the TV, which now read 'No Signal'. The Dreamcast must have powered itself off a while after the message had appeared. I walked over it and tried to turn it on again. Nothing. I tried again with the DreamCube unplugged, and still nothing.
I sat back down and began to remember back when I first tried running a Dreamcast game while the DreamCube was plugged in, and how upset I was when I had bricked it in the process, although I now know it was locked by the DreamCube.
But now, I wasn't upset. As off-putting and confusing this experience was, I couldn't help but feel nostalgic throughout. I had loads of memories with the system and to see it die right in front of me is a bit saddening, but I accepted it. It was time to move on.
I grabbed the system and put it back in the box along with the controller and DreamCube, and placed it in the closet of my bedroom. I stood up and looked at the box one last time before shutting the closet door.
I don't plan on going back to it any time soon.
(OMG I ACTUALLY FINISHED THIS I CANT EVEN... JAMIE, HOW COULD YOU RELEASE THE TRAILER AND THE CREEPYPASTA AT THE SAME TIME???? just kidding lol anyways, i loved how you animated the competitor's tree scene and how it resembled that of pixelate's! and that foreshadowing though 🥺🥺🥺 the glowup and improvement in your writing is off the charts! keep up the impressive work!)
Constructive criticism [spoilers ahead]
Although this story meant to be a creepypasta, it doesn’t get any creepy atmosphere to it, it’s just about “Dreamcast failed, please don’t play this, it should be forgotten from history of gaming”
It’s like a fan made backup story for Dreamcast. The starting of the story is above average to a creepypasta, it’s unpredictable
I wanted the other half of the story to be less “cliche” like the white light lead to something, and focus on making more creepy, but it kept me “wanting to know what’s happening” so, good on that.
the intro for the dream cube sounds like the PS2 start up mixed with the game cube start up
A New Era Of Iceypie Is Coming...
Yet it already started
Indeed!
Bro this was AWeSoMe
Dreamcube hypeeeee

epic video
27:28 I love how this is a reference to sega
Damn. This is cool
This was really good, but I wouldn't really consider this a 'creepypasta' felt more like a sad story, or, if you will a 'sadpasta'
somebody create a sadpasta wiki
@@yourbrohydro yes
I believe they’re called ‘feelspastas’
or actually, a drama
yeah. ike wii deleted you was more of a thrillerpasta
the song in the beginning seems familiar.... BIT TRIP CORE'S DISCOVERY CUTSCENE MUSIC?
26:37 scared the shit out of me
23:34 its time to make a theory I think sammy represents sega snd nintendo represents nikolace and the compteres tree represents the console wars and the rivalry between the two company's how the each try to make best game and gaming console 24:16 simon represents sony 25:06 this represents segas victory for awhile 25:13 this is the launch of the ps2 which caused sega to lose the console wars 25:49 this represents how segs no longers makes consoles also michael represents Microsoft as the Xbox is becoming popular 26:10 and this represents that sega is now a third party company making games for other company's consoles even though they are not msking the consoles themselves 26:17 and this represents how no one has won the console wars to this day 27:18 the one that came out alive was nintendo the one that is a shell of there former self is sega 27:27 master like the sega master system and genesis like the sega genesis 27:33 sega fell from saturn like the failure of the sega saturn 27:38 the sega dream cast was the last console
The only question is why is it nintendo's ides to make more money
