Xbox 360 and Sega Dreamcast boink to make Xbox 360 ARCADE LIVE , with pic

Everyone wonders were the Idea for the Xbox 360 Arcade came from. Well its not that new really. The Dreamcast business is still going pretty well and for good reason. The 400mhz Hitachi processor in the Dreamcast is reliable and hackable. The Console actually already had microsofts finger in it!. If you notice on a Dreamcast the bottom right hand corner had a Windows Ce Logo on it. Yes Thats Right!, Its a windows lisenced product and the programs run in a Windows CE shell. The unit has web browsing capabilites and can use an external hardrive through USB. However Microsoft cant very well let a Windows device out there reign supreme right! The dreamcast was a test egg for the xbox. When everyone started complaining about costs they did the same thing they did for Dreamcast! Release some arcade games to keep poeples thumbs moving till their next paycheck when they could afford games and other controllers, or better yet a Memory unit. So the marketing scheme was the same as many dreamcast games required you to have the VMU ( Visual Memory Unit) which cost 60 dollars when it came out. So acrcade " no save data" games kept gamers happy with their " budget" buy till they could afford the good stuff! Cool thing is microsolft actually offered the 256mb memory card WITH the arcade unit to keep up with high scores and save games but not have access to games that must have a software patch downloaded. You must have a hard drive and xbox live to download software emulators to make the Xbox 360 play any original xbox titles and some new ones. Hence there really is a relationship between the Microsoft Xbox 360 Talon and Sega Dreamcast Eclipse!
