With the recent news of Propeller Arena being brought online, I’ve come to the realization that not nearly enough of you own Dreamcast microphones! As I was playing online, talking to myself using my own Dreamcast mic, I thought to myself that I must do my part to fix this problem. Despite giving away a few mics in previous giveaways, clearly this wasn’t enough. So this month’s prize is yet another Dreamcast microphone (with a brand-new foam ball to boot!) and gosh darn it I’m going to continue giving them away until each and every one of you own one! Ok, maybe that’s a bit too ambitious but let’s just take things one step at a time. After this giveaway, there’ll be one less person in the world devoid of this wonderful peripheral in their life and that’s good enough for me.
If you’d like to enter for a chance to win, simply leave a comment below and make sure you include a valid email address in the “Email” box. Just for fun, let me know why you don’t already own a Dreamcast microphone (and you’d better have a good excuse! ;-)). The winner will be chosen one week from today (May 7th). Good luck!
I suppose I just haven’t had the chance to get one! I’d love to play Seaman with one and use it with other potential online games. Good luck to those entering!
To be fair, I didn’t know it existed until now. That being said, gimme!
I want ittttttt i want to talk
I’ve actually never had the chance to do online voice for the Dreamcast, so this would be a interesting time if I managed to score one.
Hello! I have been going to game stores for the past two years trying to find a Dreamcast Microphone. Two years ago, I found a copy of Seaman in a Dreamcast I bought from Japan and have been on the hunt for the microphone ever since!
When I was younger, I had the opportunity to buy one at a local import game shop but I didn’t make the leap. I’ve regretted that move ever since!
This community rules, so awesome to see more titles come online. I’d love to get a microphone to pair with my jump pack and vmus!
I just don’t own one since they’re so hard to find in good condition! Would love to have one for online, but truthfully would probably spend most of my time playing Seaman.
I hope win it! I miss my old collection 😞
I never tried this mic before, been wanting to play Seaman for ages and this might be my only chance if I win. Retro stuff is really hard to come by from where I am (Malaysia)
Want to thank you for the awesome give-aways. I have a mic… with no foam ball. It just looks naked.
I’ve been picky and hoping to find a Seaman bundle with the microphone, but I’ve never seen one in person before and should just get a mic separately!
I haven’t seen a mic with the foam ball in ages! A must have for Seaman
New foammm balllllllll!
Dreamcast came and went in my home country when it was released, and everyone around was hyped for PS2…
It was James Rolfe (aka The Angry Video Game Nerd) who released the episode on Seaman, and only until that moment I discovered there was a Dreamcast microphone…
Now that Propeller Arena is online, I’d love to use the mic on it! Also for AFO, and of course, Seaman.
Hey, it’s my chance to have a second Mic before my first Mic get home, LOL!!!
I remember that we had this big PowerPoint presentation project for 6th grade and the teacher was this tenured former typing teacher who wasn’t super versed in computers.
The prompt was to do a presentation on something we loved “so we actually did a good job at it” and that we couldn’t have bullet points because “at that point you might as well print out your slides and hand them out to the class”. No one really listened to that because 1. it was dumb, professional PowerPoints have bullet points, and 2. everyone wanted to read everything they were gonna say as they went through the PowerPoint. Naturally these all got torn to shreds.
Mine was on the Dreamcast since I was obsessed with it and didn’t have one. This was about 2007 I think, so it was something of a forgotten cult console then. I decided to go all out. I added the full version of Open Your Heart and timed animations to match it, I had no text whatsoever, and I did it with total confidence. Everyone was kinda blown away that this shy little kid not only showed them up (accidentally, I had no idea what their presentations would be like) but did it in a rad way.
At the end of the presentation, the teacher turned to the class and she said “that is how you do a PowerPoint. You all are going to do it again, and Tim you are going to help them.” She wound up taking me out of other classes to help the other grades with their PowerPoints until the other teachers got fed up. My class always looked at me a little differently after that, and the teacher went from sharing my mutual arrogant dislike of her to thinking me her best student.
It wouldn’t be until 3 years ago that my Brother finally got me a Dreamcast, but that’s a whole other story lol.
I don’t own one as I was far too shy and anti-social on my first pass through my online Dreamcast journey in 2000!
I’ve built up my confidence now and yap away in Discord calls all the time. I think I’m finally ready…
