GDEMU the SD card based replacement for the optical drive in Dreamcast console has had a new news update for the project:
Once again I found out that someone has bought out all the plastic pegs that I use for GDEMU. Like, a few thousans of them that were just sitting there, undisturbed for months, so I figured no need to rush with purchases, right? Well, apparently not so. Obviosuly I orderd more but my supplier replied they don’t expect them any sooner than week 14 of 2017. And that is the problem, I have some left but the bag is almost empty.
There’s still a chance I will get the pegs earlier – I’m not going to bet on this though so I’ll make more Phoebes now along with GDEMUs. I really dislike doing two things at once because it’s slower but I don’t have much choice now. I’ll try to build a small buffer first and sometime in the middle of February I’ll open orders again. GDEMU run will be pretty short due to that peg shortage issue. There is a potential workaround for this, namely cutting longer pegs that are available to required length but I don’t have tools to do it quickly and nicely. So it’s a backup solution but not one I’m looking foward to.

Im sure all of us who have owned a Sega Dreamcast at some stage have had problems, main one for me has been that games reset the machine, yes very annoying, well the team over at Dreamcast Junkyard have put online the official service manual for the Euro Version of the Sega Dreamcast.
If you are brave enough to fix things yourself and risk breaking the console even more then have a gander over here --> http://www.thedreamcastjunkyard.co.u...u-service.html

Gameblabla has released Crafti which is a Minecraft Clone For Dreamcast, the game that has sold mega numbers and even my 6 year old who has autism loves this game, heres a little more details:
Crafti for Dreamcast is a port of the original Crafti - a Minecraft clone developed for Texas Instruments TI-Nspire graphic calculators. There is no music and there are no enemies (so don't go expecting to be chased by a Creeper), but as a proof of concept this is pretty impressive work. There are numerous different block types, including familiar types like water, lava and even explosives and switches etc.

Some sad news regarding the rather impressive Line of Fire Game that a kickstarter campaign, heres the details:
In the Line of Fire was possibly the most ambitious Kickstarter we've yet seen for the Dreamcast, with a bespoke 3D engine designed from the ground up for Sega's hardware. Not only this, it wasn't a stretch goal for an existing project. A full-on 3D shooter with tactical gameplay elements and multiplayer options specifically created for the Dreamcast. We covered it several times here at the Junkyard, from the first teaser shots to the Kickstarter launch, and we got to preview an early build, and it looked like such a promising game. Sadly, the project didn't get the backing it deserved on Kickstarter and the team appear to have cancelled the game.

The guys over at Out of Print archive have been busy scanning another old magazine which will help those looking to relive the good old sega days:
As always, this new edition has been cleaned up considerably and has quite a few improvements over the old version which was released in 2011. The colour correction makes it look much closer to the original magazine for instance. And everything from the text to possible spots and speck of dust that might have been visible in the old release are cleaned up in this latest version.
As a preview of this issue we have a couple of articles picked out as usual. These include showcases for Vitua Cop, Virtua Fighter 2, X-Men Children of the Atom, and Firestorm Thunderhawk 2.
Check it out here --> http://www.outofprintarchive.com/cat...ine/OSSM2.html

GDEMU has had a news update, for those who need an update, heres more info, GDEMU is an SD card based replacement for the optical drive in Dreamcast console. Rhea is an SD card based replacement for the optical drive in Saturn console. GD-ROM / CD-ROM drives inevitably wear out and fail – as do all mechanical devices – and since the console is no longer being manufactured it’s nearly impossible to source spare parts. This project was meant to provide a “once and for all” solution, since it doesn’t have any moving parts.
Owners of my early GDEMU designs can now 3D-print, for free, a suitable tray for their devices that will replace the felt pads stack and make the whole assembly more secure. All this thanks to Michael Pica, you can download his plans from Thingiverse. There is also a tray for Rhea/Phoebe there – these things not only look neat but also prevent the SD card from falling inside the console during insertion/removal and can offer a small organizer too.

Christuserloeser has posted this news over on DCEmulation:
via https://itch.io/jam/dcjam-2016
Although there have been games released by independent developers on a commercial scale, there hasn't really been that large of a homebrew presence as there was before 2010. In the hopes of getting people interested, I thought that it would be wise to start a Dreamcast Game Jam. The Dreamcast is a great system to develop for, and it's relatively cheap to purchase.
The competition will run from September 09, 2016 to January 9th, 2017. Voting will last between the 9th and the 16th of January 2017. After the games are voted on, a compilation disk(s) will be created so that we have a nice collection of homebrew to play with.

In the not so distant future we'll be taking a jump in this magazine's past and look at the very first coverage of the Sega Saturn, starting with issue 17.

We begin with a look at the feature for Castlevania Bloodlines, followed by one for Sonic 3. Then we have a look at the Sega Multi-Mega/CDX. And finally we look at reviews for both WWF Rage in the Cage and Castlevania Bloodlines.

Out of print archive are a website that posts scans of old games magazines, heres a new release from them:
We are back with a newly remastered version of issue number 18 of the Official Sega Saturn Magazine.
As always, this issue has been re-edited to look even better than before, including new colour settings which put it much closer to the original physical magazine compared to the previous release. We start off with a look at Elevator Action Returns on the Saturn, which sadly never left Japan. From here we move on to a feature on Manx TT, as well as a big feature on Mass Destruction. Our final feature is for the somewhat obscure arcade fighting game by Capcom: Red Earth. But that is not all! We also have a look at not one, but two interviews in this issue. The first one is with Lobotomy Software about Duke Nukem 3D and the second one talks with Tetsuya Mizuguchi about Sega Touring Car Challenge.

Out of print archive are a website that posts scans of old games magazines, heres a new release from them:
For the second week in a row we focus on a re-release of a back issue of Official Sega Saturn Magazine. As always, this is the definite version of this magazine. The colours should be spot on with this release as well as the attention to detail when it comes to cleaning up marks of old age has been raised even more compared to the old version.
Our first preview is for a fan favourite racing game that sadly never left the arcades: Scud Race. We then take another in-depth look at Fighters Megamix as well as the newly converted arcade racer Manx TT Superbike.
And for the final preview of this issue we look at Hexen by Probe Entertainment.
