A Potential Subject Matter For A Future Video Project

Recently picked up this piece of business and am currently playing through its “massive” library of games. Much to my own surprise, Dreamgear is still a thing because this is a recent product with a copyright date of 2016. The quality of the games is as you’d expect something like this to be, but there are a couple decent titles on here that wouldn’t be out of place on a proper console (with the proper polish, of course.)

Of course, this being a portable device with an A/V output (but no A/V cable; I needed to supply that bit myself), this will no doubt be a subject matter of a major video to be released some time this year. I’ll let you know when to expect that.

Just as an excuse to revive this thing, here’s a re-up of the last time I touched a DreamGEAR product.

Vintage 2013 Photos Of Target Store In Montreal

These were taken in late-2013 shortly before the opening of the Target store in Les Galeries D’Anjou shopping center. I can remember there being a bit of excitement over the big American chain making their mark here and serving up service that would’ve been comparable to what the old retain chain Zellers would’ve offered.

A year later, the brand would limp out of Canada as an unmitigated failure and fall into bankruptcy. When you get in the stores, it’s hard to see why. Always a lack of stock, always higher prices than usual, and always a lack of reason to go there. I’ve never been to a Target store in the US, but I have to think they were offering more there than they did here.

And then they wonder why they’re going bankrupt.

My CGR ID Card For The CGR Website

My ClassicGameRoom.com profile for those who care can be found (2024 Update: Not here, as the link is no longer valid due to CGR having changed their web site a couple years later during the downsizing of the company.)

Nothing of note, thus far, but I’ve been updating the collection onto the page, so…

Constant work in progress, of course…
