You've probably been asked this a thousand times but why isn't the dreamcast on the website? I mean technically by this time its pretty old and it has great games like crazy taxi and jet grind radio. I have one but very few of my games work anymore. well that's it just want to ask

There are a few reasons as to why. First off, disc based games are massive compared to cartridge games. The amount of information that would stream through the website if more than a few people were playing a disc game at the same time would cause the site to go through severe strain and crash all the time. Back when David was on the GoDaddy server, there was an opportunity to have a server with them that had enough bandwidth to handle streaming that much information. But GoDaddy pretty much was a horrible host and screwed things up too many times. So now we are on a new server host, that huge bandwidth server is no longer available without paying a LOT of money. 

Next, even if the bandwidth wasn't an issue, it would cost a lot of money to get those on here. Back when we were on the GoDaddy server, David announced that they would be added, but since the plugin is funded by donations, we needed enough donations to pay for it. We didn't even come close to getting enough donations to pay for it. 

That is pretty much it in a big nutshell. I will close this to prevent more posts saying pretty much the same things I just said or give wrong answers.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
