What happened to DreamCast?

I remember playing a game like Tekken on DreamCast, it was OK
how come nobody liked it?

basically, dreamcast was bad timing.


Good graphics, but not enough to compete with the next gen. It would've been better if there had been more "OMG MST" games too, there really were none. Shenmue, Jet Set, SoulCalibur, and that was about it. PS2 also had the advantage that it had the PSX's library behind it, and by the time xbox came along, dreamcast (and sega) had died.


Another problem was that even though it supported net play, there were no very good online games or service.


Phantasy Star Online was pretty much it, and even PS2's FFXI beats that.
