Like I said the DC has got a huge boost in nostalgia based popularity due to it being Segas last console, if you look at both of these systems purely from a games perspective then neither has enough there to be revered as much as the DC is.

It's not nostalgia. Q4 1999/2000/2001 for Dreamcast were just the best gaming years any system has ever delivered.

And that is an opinion very much fueled by nostalgia.

It's not nostalgia. Back then, I had fun on the console like I had never had before on any system. Was I already nostalgic during that era, even though the Dreamcast wasn't yet a relic of the past? 

The Dreamcast offered amazing arcade ports (flawless ones, in fact), great exclusives, and was ahead of its time. Nowadays, some games may not have aged very well, but many are still fun to this day. Nostalgia has nothing to do with it.
