The SEAMAN Windows & Mobile Apps Time Forgot
189In the early 2000s, Seaman moved on from the Dreamcast and got a new chance at life in Japan on a variety of platforms, mainly the PlayStation 2. However, the Seaman IP also saw releases on Windows PCs (SeaMail) and various "i-mode" mobile phone platforms...and they're probably not what you think they are.
Part 1 on the many Dreamcast Seaman games & hardware: • Wait, There Were HOW MANY SEAMANS on ...
Seaman is a cult classic and one of the most beloved Dreamcast games, admired and remembered for its innovation, originality and just how much of a jerk the titular fishguy tended to be. In North America, the tale of Seaman began and ended with the 2000 Dreamcast release, but in Japan, it's a completely different story, with many more Seaman titles on the Dreamcast, Windows PC, mobile phones and the PlayStation 2, including a true Sequel, Seaman 2. This is part two of a larger look at all the wonderful Seaman goodness that never left Japanese shores. Keep an eye out for part three, as well as the entire video combining all parts in the future.
