This site is Awesome, but I think that the Sega Dreamcast should be added to the games that we can play (if possible), what do all of you think? Its just an idea, that's all.

This isn't happening. The games are way too large to be hosted in the RGR at this time and in my personal experience, Dreamcast emulation is kinda shoddy. If Vizzed doesn't even have PS1 up, you're not going to see Dreamcast. That's a way more stable system and I'm willing to bet the average game is smaller in size too.

The only disc-based system you'll be seeing for a while is Sega CD and even that's an experiment to see if it puts too much strain on the server or increases costs or anything.

Well, I think part of the reason the PS1 isn't going on the RGR anytime soon is, I think Sony is more active when it comes to copyright, so it could be hard in that sense also.

Hello and welcome to vizzed.  I hope you enjoy your time here, despite the fact that there is no dreamcast here. LOL

Erm, this doesn't really sound like an intro thread though, since it's focus is on a suggestion.

What do you think?

Instead of moving it, I will be closing it because there are literally hundreds of threads that have asked this question. It simply won't happen. The first comment summed up one of the 3 major reasons. The games are too large. The server can't handle streaming that much information at once. If a few people were playing Dreamcast games at once, it would cause the site to be incredibly slow for everyone until it reaches it's threshold and crashes. We would be dealing with site crashes on a daily basis. Having a server that has the capability of handling that much streaming would cost a fortune. And when I say fortune, I don't mean a one time payment. I am talking about an incredibly high MONTHLY payment. It just can't happen.
