Now it'd be easy to go into why this machine is awesome and rant about how tragic it was in 2001 when the console was discontinued on western shores, but that's not what this is about."
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

i could tell you storys (but then i wouldn´t be finished until tomorrow)
Great great memories and an awesome piece of gaming history in my opinion.
Just bought some Dreamcasts and additional stuff on Ebay after my own DC died and had a black screen years ago.

SOme pictures in the forum of the stuff I bought. And yes its a great machine. in its short lifecycle it had 15 games on or over a 9 out of 10 average (check Metacritic) on a 150 listed there, while the PS3 has 16 over 9 out of 10 average on about 400 games listed. While the DC titles are much more original and in the PS3 list there is a lot of multiplatform stuff in those over 9 out of 10 games.
Not only that, the first console to include online gaming although it was on a 56k6 modem, plus the additional stuff it had, its just a great system period. And it having CD's... Well it was launched 2 years before the PS2, so thats logical, DVD wasn't there yet.
The haters now just don't understand that, many of those here started gaming on a PS2 or even PS3 and are just 12 years old and just born when the Dreamcast launched.
@ Syronicus - That and they didn't have EA making them games...
