Shenmue I and II, my friend. You can find Shenmue 2 subtitled in english with japanese voice (much better version than the xbox one, IMO).

Also, you got to play:

- Skies of Arcadia; Grandia II; Resident Evil: Code Veronica; Marvel Vs. Capcom 2; Sonic Adventure 2; Power Stone 2; Headhunter; Soul Calibur; Phantasy Star Online...

There are so many games on Dreamcast, but those are amazing!

 

Was Shenmue 2 released on Dreamcast with english subtitles??I didn't even know that!Now I have to buy it...

Yes! It was released just in Europe, subtitled in English, French and Spanish, but it's not that hard to find it.



IT'S TIME FOR SHENMUE III, SEGA!

Hm, I'll probably grab Skies of Arcadia too.  Too bad SHenmue II never made it to the States.  =(

Thanks to the tecommendations for games, guys, but what about a/v cables?


VGA cables are the only way to go on this. Just google "Dreamcast VGA cables".

You're welcome.

 

Also, stay FAR AWAY from Shenmue. It's TERRIBLE. Controls are bad (you play with the D-pad, not the control stick). The voiceovers are awful. You have to walk all the way back to your crappy dojo to go save. The only way this game is good is if you put on nostalgia goggles. Then that's a maybe.

Lastly, Soul Calibur. No Dreamcast is complete without it. And Jet Set Radio. Love that game.

I wouldn't suggest to get Skies of Arcadia for the Dreamcast quite frankly. I see that you own a GC ( a Wii will do of course) so you should get Skies of Arcadia Legends if you really want the game. The Gamecube version is said to be superior in many ways.


I always thought Legends was part sequel, part spin-off.  Didn't realize it was a port.  0_o

I kinda want it for Dreamcast anyway, though.  But I'm a collector who likes having originals (which is why I'm also thinking of rebuying Crazy Taxi lol).  Skies on Dreamcast just feels more right.  Plus, I finally own a Sega console, so I might as well stock up on all the first party goodness I've missed.

Also, random question, but the Dreamcast doesn't happen to play Sega CD games, does it?

Take pride in owning a Saturn, not a Dreamcast. The Saturn blitzes the DC.

Also, SCD games? C'mon mm, you know better than that :P

The Powerstone games are must haves in my opinion.

I had countless hours of fun playing those at my friend's house.

The almighty Dreamcast............. gave me two of the best gamnig years of my life between 2000 to 2002.

Games to get for this legendary system.

Shenmue (Still a Dreamcast exclusive)

Shenmue 2

Crazy Taxi 2 (DC exclusive)

Virtua Tennis (the origional is still pretty much the best tennis game there is, very challenging too)

Power Stone 1 & 2 (DC exclusives & easily give Super Smash Brothers Brawl games a run for their money)

Jet Set Radio (DC exclusive)

Ferrari F355 challenge (From Yu Suzuki, maker of Shenmue....... and DC exclusive)

Street Fighter III (various editions available on DC, DC is still in fact 2D beat em up king thanks to Capcoms support)

Virtua Striker 2 (Sega arcade classic)

Metropolis Street Racer (DC exclusive and still better than any Project Gotham Racing game, awesome soundtrack too)

Sonic Adventure 1 & 2

Virtua Fighter 3 TB

Blue Stinger (if you like Survival horror games its worth a shot)

And if you ever bought a gun perhiperal for the DC then theres four excellent shooters available on DC..... Virtua Cop 1 & 2 import, House of the Dead 2 & Confidential mission)

There you have it, tonnes of games (some still exclusive) and many many hours of fun ahead.

Saturn > DC in 2D games. Besides, SF Alpha III has its best port... on the Saturn.
