/games/ - Dreamcast... the forgotten console that could

Name: afreak 2004-12-25 19:55

I still find my Dreamcast more enjoyable than my Playstation 2 sometimes. Anybody care to agree, disagree?

I do love my Dreamcast. Recently I bought Shenmue and really need to play it. I played Shenmue 2 a while ago and it has probably become one of my favourite games. I will be playing it again after I play 1.

Thought for a moment I deleted my picture. :o

Actually don't care for Shenmue on it that much. Right now I seem to know more about the Saturn, for what that's worth. Really any Sega console after the Genesis -> underrated, and unterutilized. Especially underutilized (here in the U.S. despite the best efforts of Working Designs, anyhow, for the Sega/Mega CD.)

My DC kept me occupied well into the PS2 and Xbox's first years or two. As the games I want are all slowly being ported to more current consoles, though, I find myself with less and less reasons to plug it in. Not that they don't exist!

I love my Dreamcast. Hell, I'm using Skies of Arcadia's web browser to type this message lol (I'm between comps)
For what little there was, the DC games are pretty good.
LikeL

Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
Marvel vs Capcom 1 and 2
Skies of Arcadia
Sega Smashpack
Grandia 2

These (IMO) were the best games are the best the DC have. My scope isn't that wide on the system, so I might have forgotten a great game or two...

My Dreamcast broke - it seems not to accept input controllers any more, for some reason. It's a real shame because I can't play Ikaruga any more and I don't own a Gamecube or a Playstation 2 (http://www.world4ch.org/read/games/1104049586/7)

Whoops, broken link. I meant http://www.world4ch.org/read/games/1104049586/7 .

Speaking of the Dreamcast, does anyone know of anything cool that can be done with it, save playing Dreamcast games?

Emulating an SNES (timing was too slow last time I checked). I think someone made a Linux port, could be wrong.

QuakeDC, DoomDC, NesterDC (NES), and SMEG (SMS).

My VMU no longer works on its own. It's a shame, because I had a nice mini game on it.

My brand new VMU had been in the box in whatever warehouse it was in so long that the battery was already dead by the time I bought it.

I started playing some Dreamcast games on Chankast ;D
the game Ikaruga from a full CD can be RAR`ed to 20mb!

I have TONS of DC games. Mostly backups. *cough* I'm trying to sell my Gamecube, but I'll never let go of my Dreamcast. All I'd sell would be those "backups", but it's illegal, isn't it? ANYWAY... I wuv my Dweamcast.

Rayman II is my favorite 3d platform game next to Conker's Bad Fur Day. I played the XBox port of Sonic Adventure 2, and I can't wait to get it for the DC, particularly since it doesn't have that stupid creature-growing thing in it.

my dreamcast has so many awesome capcom and snk fighters... EVERYONE, PLEASE READ THE MANUAL ON HOW TO MANAGE AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR DCS SO THEY DON'T DIE ON YOU. thx.

Name: JDigital 2004-12-31 23:03

The manual didn't warn me not to trust my siblings with my consoles. That's twice they've broken a console on me.

I'm looking to sell my Dreamcast backups. Is it against the rules to say that here? Anyone wanna buy? Remember all the legal mumbo-jumbo; you can only have them if you have the original game. *cough*

Holy shit this is old. And these guys actually talk about vidya. It's like /v/ is down and we visit this desert town called /games/ and see our own past, froze and static since 2004. No captcha, no dubs, no cowadooty or TOR rage.

My net is shaped and takes too long to load /v/ so I thought I would check the text forums and wow
