Cancelled Dreamcast Games
The Dreamcast is a video game console by Sega. While Sega found success in its Sega Genesis in the early 1990s, they experienced a series of commercial failures with their subsequent releases of Sega CD, 32X, and Sega Saturn, and hoped to reverse their fortunes with their release of the Dreamcast. However, the Dreamcast too featured a relatively short lifespan, launching across 1998 and 1999 in different regions, and being discontinued worldwide in March 2001.
