The Sega Dreamcast truly set some standards. Sega had five other consoles which preceded it, so when it came time to release their newest console in 1998, they were ready to deliver the goods. While the console would go on to be very short-lived - mostly due to rampant competition by Sony's Playstation 2 dominating the marketplace at the time - it was truly revolutionary. The Dreamcast was the first console to include a built-in modem for online game play, and it is widely considered to be the prototype from which the other popular next generation video game consoles were molded after. We all know that in the early 2000s, Sega stopped making game consoles in the wake of the dominance by rivals Microsoft (Xbox), Sony (Playstation) and Nintendo (Wii); the company instead shifted their focus to creating games and software.
