    Why the hell did they wait till he ran away to shoot him? You'd think they'd have shot him when he first threw the hammer.

    On a completely unrelated note, what on earth have they done to the poor Beetle? Are those vents in the hood and rear quarter panels? :unamused:

    Dreamcast never "grew old" as other consoles did, so to say.
    We have new Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo consoles but Dreamcast was Sega's last real console and it was quite a success even.
    People held and still hold Dreamcast in high regard. Kind of great underdog of its time.
    PC-tan is shown as encouraging big brother figure who is just remembering the old days when Dreamcast was still alive and kicking.
    Sad really if you think about it in certain way.

    TL;DR / Too stupid to understand:

    Dreamcast died. Only PC-tan remembers her. Others have moved on, doing their own things, even if they carry the influences/features of Dreamcast.

    What the fuck is PC-tan? Why does it say "uh oh" and show its Ken doll crotch? What the hell is the last panel?

    Because when the Dreamcast was released it had controllers with a hole in the middle, and it didn't release the part that went into it until after the next generations of consoles came out, far to late to be worth buying it. I don't remember what it did because in the end I just got a better PC instead of upgrading my Dreamcast. I miss Dreamcast, it was the best of the 4 consoles, because it had the coolest games, and most unique games that to this day you still can't find anywhere else.

    That is what you get for having a brain in you tentacles instead of your head... Suffice to say Dreamcast didn't fail it just faded. Partly because it wasn't completed until after it wasn't worth completing, that is what the last 2 frames is about.

    But.. What is a "-tan"? Why does the PC have no pensis if the Dreamcast was incomplete? Why is the Dreamcast playing with modern consoles?

    I'm so lost

    I think -tan is the cute version of -san -chan. I dont remember which exactly (goddamit I read to much manga). Like instead of onii-chan its onii-tan (however the fuck its spelled. Im at work)

    Tan, in this case, is the "masculine" (if there is such a thing in Japan) of chan. Kun is also commonly used. It is a "cute" pronoun type of device. San would be the formal, as in Skorn-san, while tan or kun is the informal or cute version: Skorn-kun.

    I don't think any of them actually know what this nonsense means any more than we do. This is all just an elaborate ruse.

    okay onii-tan.

    1 answer i have seen on the interweb is that "tan" is toddler speak because they can't pronounce the ch so it becomes tan instead of chan. So if you like lolicons.
