HEY -- wouldn't the nex-gen Amiga have a chance in this game market especially with the G5 installed?
About as much of a chance as a snowball thrown in to an active volcano.

There should be a Sega Dreamcast Emulator running on X86 Windows floating somewhere in the WWW. I haven’t tested the performance of the said emulator. Sega Dreamcast is powered by Windows CE 2.x with DirectX 6 class GPU i.e. PowerVR and 200Mhz SH4 processor.
Untrue. The Dreamcast wasn't powered by Windows CE, it was just compatible with it. (The logo on the machine says as much.) The only titles "powered" by Windows CE were those built with the WinCE SDK. The bulk of the Dreamcast library, much to Microsoft's dismay, were built with the Katana SDK.

The Dreamcast had CE yes, but only about 5 games actually took advantage of it, such as Namco Musuem, Midway's Arcade pack, Kiss: Psycho Circus, and two who's names elude me right now.
Sega Rally 2 definately was. I believe Spirit of Speed 1937 was also built with it.
