DC had the fishing reel/rod as an accessory didn't it? That was sick.

The VMU screen on the DC controller was awesome too, playing NFL 01 etc you could set all your plays up and choose them on the controller without anything coming up on the TV screen.

Sega management were morons for making the Saturn and Dreamcast so retardedly expensive. $800 then would be like $1200 in today's money. Nintendo had the right idea making the N64 cheap. All reminds me of the Sega vs Nintendo arguements when I was younger that were just as passionately fueled as Ford vs Holden.

I am, I've got a NES (the top loading one) and a gameboy color, N64 and Playstation 1 if you consider that retro.

I did have a SNES which I adored but one night I thought it would be fun to play surgeon. I was 9 at the time.
