And now, Did You Know Gaming featuring Brad Brown.
Did you know? The Dreamcast, while having a great library of games, is actually a cheap piece of shit. Sega opted to use the cheapest, most easily breakable hardware ever designed for the consumer market, a record that would not be broken until the creation of the Xbox 360. I've gone through three Dreamcast consoles now in the last couple of months, and each one has had disc-reading issues because the Dreamcast's laser is so fucking garbage. I recently received a new Dreamcast from Kyatt, the guy who does Beeserker. This one was the best Dreamcast I've gotten yet...but still ended up suffering from the same damn problem all these Dreamcasts do.
BUT! Did you know? Apparently, flipping the console UPSIDE-FUCKING-DOWN helps the Dreamcast's laser read your discs better. Rightside-up, the new Dreamcast managed to play Shenmue up until attempting to leave the Hazuki residence, after which it would freeze and then never recognize the disc again. But, when you flip the stupid-ass console on its fucking tray and play it upside-down, we managed to play it nonstop for about five hours with absolutely no problems. So if your Dreamcast can't read discs right, why not flip that stupid piece of shit upside-down? I'll take pictures later just to prove this stupidly effective Dreamcast-playing technique, because jesus christ something so dumb shouldn't work. Thanks again, Kyatt!
That's all for today! SEE YOU ON WEDNESDAY
Edit: Here's those dumb-ass pictures, as promised!
