I don’t know if it ever stopped. Seems like every other month there’s a port or a homebrew that eventually goes retail.

The Atomiswave arcade ports are great.

Dreamcast Junkyard is the typical forum for all things that are “still thinking”

Short answer, absolutely not.

The Virtex Ultrascale+ FPGA boards are $10,000 AND UP.

If you look up why Mister will not move up to more powerful FPGA chips, this is why.

Would it be cool? Yes. Definitely.

Now imagine that, but on a keyboard. No mouse. That’s pc controls for ZT

Extreme G 2 on pc loses the analog steering from N64, which turns out is a big deal. Throwback Entertainment made a port-of-a-port and introduced a speed hack in the launcher menu where you can slow down the game a bit, which helps, but doesn’t fix the issue.

In some other cases like Hexen, there were alterations on console that I find generally more appealing, like an ost remaster or lighting effects.

The Genesis game Zero Tolerance and Dreamcast version of Expendable are games I prefer on console simply because of the control schemes on pc.

Not to pile on, but print ads from the 90’s are wild to look at. Sonic 3 launched at $70. You know, games that require a couple of hours to complete casually. Stuff got replayed a LOT.

To me that looks like RetroArch running Genesis Plus GX.

Retro-bit, Retro Fighters, and Krikzz are a few more manufacturers I can think of making controllers with original ports.

In particular, Retro-bit’s Saturn Pro pad is…interesting, let’s say. I have also used Retro Fighters Striker Dreamcast pads - they’re quite nice.

In yonder days, a few companies like ASCII and Hori come up a lot for reliable stuff.

In this instance, the CPU fans are pulling rather than pushing, and yeah it’s because of memory clearance.

Surprisingly, temps of the parts aren’t that bad. Under load the CPU tops out at about 70c, and the gpu only goes up to 65c while ray tracing and the whole bit.

Still, if money were no object, I’d like to have the Silverstone Sugo 17 shoebox style case when it becomes available.
