Dreamcast Magazines?

Recommended Posts

Hi, I first want to state I love this site. Whoever dedicated themselves to upload all of the Nintendo Power scans really has my respect, and cannot even begin how grateful I am for finding out a ton of Nintendo history. So, I just bought a Dreamcast, and really wanted to read about it. I saw on another site someone had a scan of the first issue of Official Dreamcast Magazine in PDF format, but the link is now broken. If anyone has this issue, or has the old PDF, I would be so glad to see it again. Thanks for all the great magazines so far!

Issue 1 or issue 0?

There was an issue that was given out a video game stores to get people interested in the magazine.

The thing is the Dreamcast Magazines are really hard to scan unless you have a large scanner. I wish I had a large scanner because I've got most of the Dreamcast magazines but afraid of all the work it takes to scan one issue of that magazine because of how wide the pages are. If I ever get a chance to spend some time for my self, I work 12hrs a day with only 2 days off a week, I may scan those but right now I don't see it happening. But keep a look out!

I remember the Dreamcast magazine we got in Canada. It's too bad we only got one. I found EGM to be an excellent non biased magazine for Dreamcast coverage. There are hundreds of games worth owning too. We can't offer any magazines after December 1999 and unfortunately this was the prime era for the Dreamcast. I made a list of all my Dreamcast games.

You guys are going to hate me for posting so much lol, but I still have to ask on the behalf of all Dreamcast fans.

Does anyone know if ANY of these magazines have been scanned at all?

OCDM_US_Complete.jpg

Official US Dreamcast Magazine

Complete run of the Official US Dreamcast Magazine (12 issues).

The Official Dreamcast Magazine was a video game magazine for the Sega Dreamcast published in the United States of America.

The magazine's initial issue "0" was released in June 1999, a full 3 months before the launch of the system. This rare issue (bottom centre) featured Sonic the Hedgehog on a black cover, along with the launch date and some of the system's unique features. The magazine then ran for twelve issues from the September 1999 Dreamcast launch to March/April 2001, shortly after Dreamcast was discontinued.

OCDM_UK_Complete.jpg

Official UK Dreamcast Magazine

Complete run (21 issues (0-21)) of the official UK Dreamcast Magazine.

The Official Dreamcast Magazine was a video game magazine published by Dennis Publishing in the United Kingdom between 1999 and 2001.

The magazine featured news, reviews, previews and features on Sega Dreamcast games.

The magazine held the official magazine license for the Dreamcast in the UK and featured a DreamOn demo disc on almost every cover. The magazine also featured complete games Sega Swirl and Planet Ring on its front cover.

DC-UK_Complete.jpg

DC-UK

A third party UK Dreamcast magazine, complete run.

DC-UK was a Sega Dreamcast video game magazine published by Future Publishing in the United Kingdom. Its first issue was published in August 1999 and it ran until 2001.

Issue 02 of DC-UK is available over at www.outofprintarchive.com

We have a problem here in that we do not publish magazines from Jan 2000 onwards so wouldn't be able to host anything other than the 1999 issues. The OoPA guys on the other hand base thier hosting decisions on criteria such as whether the console is still sold by the manufacturer amongst other things etc so they are your best bet for getting this type of content. Might pay to check with them and see if they have more issues stored away in their collection that are yet to be scanned.

Personally I'd love to see Dreamcast mags made available as the system was discontinued in 2001 and the mags you mentioned are not multi-system based so even though post-2000 there is not much likelihood of impacting the publishers.

I have sent OoPA 2 emails stating that I am banned from registering, and even posted over at their racketboy thread asking them to allow me to register. I have yet to get an email from them, so until I do this is the most viable place to ask. Don't you think that the ones that are over a decade old and not produced anymore could be made the exception?

You guys would get a ton of people here that would be interested in scanning various magazines I am sure. ;)
