Still no signs of a Shenmue HD from Sega itself but Retro-Bit, a company specialized in retro clone hardware, has signed a licensing agreement with Sega of America to produce accessories for Sega's gaming platforms, including the Genesis, Saturn and DREAMCAST. The unveil of these new products will be done in January next year in the the Las Vegas Convention Center during CES 2018.

"The first products and concepts under the agreement include several accessories that feature the same great quality as their original Sega counterparts like the original console port, but also with modern upgrades such as a USB port for PC compatibility and Bluetooth wireless technology."

“With retro gaming on an upswing, we are pleased to offer officially SEGA licensed accessories in their original format as well as apply the innovative classic gaming enhancements that have become the hallmark of Retro-Bit,” said Titi Ngoy, President and CEO at Innex Inc. the exclusive distributor of Retro-Bit. “We’re excited to unveil the first of these new products and concepts at CES, and do so alongside an exciting 2018 product catalog.”

If a Dreamcast Mini comes to fruition, the question is now, which games should it feature besides duh... Shenmue 1 & 2?

The Dreamcast isn't too hard to emulate, but it's going to need more power than the snes mini. It could definitely be possible though.

If a Dreamcast Mini came out I would buy one straight away. Here is my list of games I'd like to see.

Shenmue 1+2
Jet Set Radio
Crazy Taxi
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2
Sonic Adventure 1+2
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Space Channel 5
Skies of Arcadia
Soul Caliber 2
Super Monkey Ball
Chu Chu Rocket
Grandia 2

A little disingenuous of the company to tweet that article from notorious fact-dodgers the Daily Express, knowing that it would stir hype around their products without having to take responsibility for the unfounded talk of an actual console.

No need to let a silly little fact like that in the way. :oops:

Considering Dreamcast emulation is poor on the Raspberry Pi 3 with the best of fan emulators and that every Sega Genesis mini we've seen in stores has been trash, color me either skeptical or unimpressed. Say what you will about their artificial shortages, but the polish of Nintendo's classics leave Sega's own emulator boxes in the dust.

So from what I saw so far, the stuff I really liked are these bluetooth controllers:

Very nostalgic, and Sega licensed. Might play Shenmue 1 & 2 again on DEmul with it.

Dreamcast emulation is actually pretty shit unless run on much more powerful hardware than any console clone would produce.

But there is a thing called Dreamcast on a Chip. I dunno if it was ever used though.
