Dreamcast pack not heading to PS3

A boxed compilation of classic Dreamcast games will not arrive on PS3 when it hits shelves on February 25th.

The Dreamcast is still remembered as a pioneering console for online gaming,” said Sega’s VP of marketing Gary Knight.

We are delighted to offer our large community of dedicated fans Dreamcast Collection for them to enjoy old favourites on this generation of consoles.”

Sega previously confirmed the existence of the compilation last December.

The Dreamcast Collection will be released in North America on February 22nd – three days earlier than the UK and Europe.
