Dreamcast didn't succeed for two reasons. One, the previous system, Saturn, made Sega lose a lot of money, especially in the US, due to the poor support of the company to back the system. That plus the fact that it invested 500 million dollars, alone, in the US to promote the Dreamcast, didn't help at all.
The final nail in the coffin was the piracy. The fact that you didn't need a mod-chip and it was really easy to copy already copied games which made it so that Sega couldn't counter this fatal blow.
The Dreamcast was an awesome system with a lot of great ideas that were a first in the Videogame Console world.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
