CORRECTIONS: Yes, there are mobile versions of Chu Chu Rocket (GBA), Power Stone 1/2 (PSP) and Soul Calibur (Android, delisted) - I didn't include these because I was focusing on the amazing multiplayer aspect of the games and the mobile/handheld versions are NOT the best ways to play any of these games. I misspoke when I said they weren't available anywhere else, as I was talking about on modern consoles and/or currently available.

THE standout Dreamcast exclusive for me personally was Project Justice (sequel to the PS1 fighting game Rival Schools).

@@TynologyGaming easy too since it had a remaster on for modern consoles.

I bought the Dreamcast for Soulcalibur. I loved playing it so much at Chuck E. Cheese, that I just had to have it at home. Some other people have mentioned Grandia II. My all time favorite game of Dreamcast! Unfortunately I played Grandia II first, so trying to play Skies of Arcadia was a bit of a slog after that. I only got so far into the game after being frustrated by the constant random encounter and lackluster battle system. Grandia II you could sneak around monsters, and how you entered combat mattered. If you ran into the monster, you would get an advantage, if they ran into you, they got the advantage. Yes, Grandia II has been ported many times, and I have quite a few of the ports. The first PC port was okay, but had many graphical glitches, especially in the video integration. The PS2 port was aweful! I've seen many complaints about the ports to the newer consoles. The new PC port is actually really good. There were some early problems, which I didn't encounter, which I think have all been patched. I ended up picking up Grandia for Playstation off of ebay after enjoying the second one soo much. Grandia II is more consistantly good, but I think I enjoyed Grandia more, even if the game starts off a little weak. Unfortunately Grandia III came out in North America for the PS2 about the same time as the PS3 was launching. I think it was MotorStorm I got really sucked into and just never got back to Grandia III.

A niche game that I played a lot in the Dreamcast besides all that was already mentioned was Record of Lodoss War:. It played like Diablo, required quite a bit of grinding, but was very satisfying. With a lot of late game content too. And one interesting thing about Quake 3 Arena was that it supported online and you could play competitive fps on the Dreamcast. I'm not sure whether it supported cross platform play with the PC, but the servers were lively back then. I learned to play with the face buttons and got pretty competent back then, managed to beat the single player in the hardest difficulty even!

I would be thrilled if they just did HD remaster of Power Stone 1 & 2. They could even leave the graphics alone entirely other than upping the resolution (in fact, I'd prefer that they don't change the graphics).

Its not being released. This is why you buy a dreamcast and keep all the games and look after them , like I did 😉. If you buy a loose dreamcast unboxed no cable you can get one for £35-40 pounds u.k 💰. You then buy a equivalent power lead £6 not big adapter plug needed. Then ( this is the important part) buy a kaico adapter its plug and play for hdmi and its pretty darn good more like HD picture. I play it on a 65 inch screen no problem. Add a genuine controller 12 quid . So about 100 pound all in. Most games are still affordable but some you may have to remortgage your house for but it's worth it 👌

I pre-ordered the Dreamcast so I'm aware of all these games, even Jojos Bizarre Adventure, my personal favorites are Marvel vs Capcom 2, Power Stone 2(Such an improvement-also the PSP got a Power Stone Collection)and yes, the Dreamcast was greatly unappreciated for what it was, and still is. Also I'll add Bangai-O(another Treasure gem-also, fruit) Jedi Power Battles(MUCH improved over PS1),and for House of the Dead 2, I'm on my 3rd and 4th lightgun accessories-using the controller is horrible-my opinion-and I keep a CRT around for that reason, and I so want an Atomiswave, as having a Arcade Supergun rocks, and one of my friends on here(and irl)has one-its glorious.

Just went to check back my own Dreamcast collection - worth mentioning also I think: San Francisco Rush 2049, Fur Fighters and Worms Armageddon. Best console ever - really at a sweet spot, between still a genuine fun factor, but also already great technical performance. Today's consoles and games are no fun imo. Technically superb no doubt, but just not the same fun factor and creativity.

Space Channel 5 and Rez follows the same formula because they were both made by the same creator, Tetsuya Mizuguchi. Plus the development of Ulala actually goes a lot deeper than many are led to believe. In fact Mizuguchi was actually scared on how the Americans were gonna react to Space Channel 5, but after seeing the positive reviews from the E3 he was a lot more relaxed

@@TynologyGaming no problem, there’s a whole wiki fandom page dedicated to this series including some trivia from some early documents, which displayed early concepts of some of the characters in the game

Dreamcast ended right before Soul Reaver 2 came out which ended up being an early title for PS2. Kind of crazy since Soul Reaver was originally on the PlayStation and Soul Reaver 2 was going to be on PS-One too so you could carry over your save file like in Shenmue 1 and 2. But because Soul Reaver 2 ended up on a different system with different memory cards, it was impossible to bring over your save file from the first game on either Dreamcast or PS-One. I think because of that the sequel was reworked and didn't continue everything from the first game. That's how you got the cut content that still remained on the disc but you couldn't access any of it by normal means. Think of something similar to the Banjo Kazooie Stop and Swap.

What about Elemental Gimmick Gear (EGG)? It only ever came out on the Dreamcast. It had (imho) this amazing art direction and atmosphere that was (iirc) in part influenced by the French artist Moebius (Jean Giraud). For rpg's of this era, EGG stepped away from the much over utilized jrpg mechanics and instead created a quirky action rpg that feels like Metroid combined with Zelda. And the soundtrack was super great. The game has a definitive 90s era experimental animation vibe (thinking like MTV's liquid television). Anyways, I've been wanting to play this game for a minute, and your video has motivated me to (re) obtain a Dreamcast console. Cheers!
