Anybody got any decent info on the Dreamcast Swatch accessorie that was going to come out?
I understnad it was cancelled and that the aim of it was to have a worldwide internet time - to arrange meeting online easier etc (which is a bloody good idea).

I've seen some small photos of the controller add-on prototype - and read sketchy bits of info on it all but anybody got any decent info/pics on it all?

How was the watch supposed to work with the Dreamcast?

Wonder how far along the whole thing was before it got cancelled!

Hehehe. Well you see, if you've ever played PSO you'd be familiar with the internet time feature that is integrated into the game. Congratulations, that's what Swatch designed. It's not a stand alone product, it's a sort of clock meant to be integrated into online games to help players be able to more effectively schedule meet up times and such.

I know that, I mean I would like more info on why it was cancelled and wondered if anybody had any decent pics of the swatch controller bits etc....
