    Wildly ahead of its time, deserved so much better. The memory stick being like a tamagotchi, that’s an amazing idea. I could never figure out how to make it work but raising the Chao from Sonic Adventure, so much unrealised potential.

      There was a prototype VMU MP3 player in the works before the Dreamcast was discontinued, alongside a music store.

      Sega also produced a digital camera for the Dreamcast, the DreamEye.

      The tech world could have looked very different if the Dreamcast went differently for Sega.
