We here at the Junkyard have been doing some serious navel gazing recently. After over 12 years of bringing you all the latest news, reports, stories, interviews, reviews, features, rants, opinions, podcasts, videos, and random inane musings about all things Dreamcast, we've realised two things.
1. There's nothing left to talk about.
Seriously, what else is there?
2. We're sick to bloody death of the Dreamcast!
You try and get excited about talking about the same thing over and over again for more than a decade. Believe it or not, it does wear thin after a while, no matter how much you loved the topic to begin with.
As we celebrate Easter 2018, a traditional pagan ritual of new beginnings and rebirth, it seems like an appropriate time to close the book on Dreamcast and begin again with a fresh new focus on something else.
We've exhausted the well on Sega's last console, so instead of continuing to scrape the sludge at the bottom, we thought we would start plumbing the virgin depths of Sega's little regarded first console - the SG-1000.
From today, we're re-branding as the SG-1000 Junkyard, and we're excited to start bringing you all the latest SG-1000 related news, reviews, interviews, features, and all the usual tat you've come to expect from our intrepid band of reporters. Same team, new system.
We hope you'll continue to follow us on our journey into the strange new world of SG-1000. We're just glad that we can finally start talking about something else for a change.

Is that a Dreamcast swirl? |
1. There's nothing left to talk about.
Seriously, what else is there?
- Did we finally track down Pierre "The Barber" Santino? Check.
- Have we covered not only all things Dreamcast, but also the extended family of arcade systems based on Dreamcast hardware? Check.
- Did we publish a comprehensive Ultimate Collector's Guide detailing every Dreamcast game ever released in every major territory? Check.
- Did we get a cease and desist letter from Sega's lawyer's about said Collector's guide? Che- ... um ... (am I still allowed to talk about that Tom?).
- In any case, did we not just bring you an interview with Bernie-frigging-Stolar? We mother-flippin' did!

Thrown straight out of the window. No regrets. |

Make sure your caves are blocked shut, so Jesus doesn't escape this time. |
