Released in 1999, the Dreamcast was Sega's last video game console. The Dreamcast was packed with innovative, cutting-edge technology considerably ahead of its time, a trait common to most Sega systems. Cancelled in 2001, Sega continued to produce games for the Dreamcast through 2004, with some independent games released as late as 2005. Named by Popular Science magazine as one of the most important and innovative products of 1999, the Dreamcast continues to have a cult following today.
