Dreamcast demo discs that came with console?

Post by dark »

What were the different iterations of demo discs that came with the console when you bought it? I assume this varied between regions.

As far as I know, for the USA, there were only ever 2 discs.

You may perhaps have those that were packaged with Official DC magazine. They only released 10 vol. if i recall correctly...

Yup, I picked up 4 on craigslist about a week back or so along with some games. They have some decent demo's on them but considering how easy it is to get a hold of "demos" for the DC they really don't have much use besides collectors value :D

I have a volume 11 so I can confirm that :D I think its the one with that stupid fucking Truth video on it, the cig nazi's/ freedom haters/ fact manipulators. They started selling space on the CD's towards the end it would seem, one CD has a video of some Rap band called Jurassic 5, its fucking awful.

^Jurassic 5 did have some music in Jet Grind Radio, so at least that is kind of related to the dreamcast...

There were all kinds of magazines that came with demo cds for the dreamcast, but I'm interested in finding out about the pack ins that came with the console when you bought it new. Did the Euro DCs come with any game demo disc?

Ok, so in the US, the only demo cds that came as pack ins were DC Generator 1 and DC Generator 2. The other 8 or so CDs in that list came with Official Sega Dreamcast Magazine and were not pack ins with the console.

What about Europe? No pack in demo discs with the console?

SEGA Europe included the first DreamOn at the beginning and later the Dreamcast Collection 2 - 4.
