Every one of these hurts. Each was present or created on the Saturn and so naturally should've got at least one instalment on the Dreamcast.
Nights.
Shining Force.
Panzer Dragoon shooters.
Panzer Dragoon Saga.
I'm going with Nights since it's so small, 8 little levels depending on how you count the Christmas game.
Thanks for posting.
( Was going to make this a poll, but was tired and forgot. Oh well).
I have to say, it is strange there were no Shining Force games on the Dreamcast, considering how popular the series was, It's a shame.
I was amazed at finding out just yesterday that the dreamcast can pull off emulators, I don't know how though...
Would have been cool to have a 3D Eternal Champions game.
That's rather OT, but Dreamcast was among the first consoles to run emulators for a wide range of platforms. It was (and still is) known for its homebrew library. That said it never got a full speed SNES emulator, and the best Genesis emulator has severe sound issues. It got a very very decent Neo Geo CD emulator however, and emulators for literally everything 8-bit ever made.Quote:

It could never have happened. Camelot basically jumped off ship when they got Episode III done of Shining Force III, due to how frustrated they were with Sega.Quote:

Nights is awesome :ok:
I'm gutted they never did a proper sequel to Phantasy Star IV; sure we got PSO1&2, but they are PS in name-only. Here's hoping a fan made game materilizes some time in the future (ha!).
This one is easy: Streets of Rage. :ok:
SIGH, WHATS ot? ;/Quote:

I'd have to agree. Any game in a Sega franchise (or otherwise) that made it's way to it's contemporary consoles was a travesty to have missed-out on the Dreamcast. Even sequels to Dreamcast games themselves (i.e.- Jet Set Radio Future).Quote:

More new and exciting Treasure Games
Space Harrier (But then again, a true sequel also missed the 32bit generation. Is there even a real sequel to Space Harrier?)
Sword of Vermilion 2 baby!
The things I keep learning. I just searched her up and that's quite the repertoire she's got. wow. I also love the fact that these people are still very young.Quote:

Columns
Hang-On (the series seems to have died after the Saturn all together)
Sega Flying series [After Burner/G-LOC/Strike Fighter] (there was an arcade game called Sega Strike Fighter that ran on the same hardware as the Dreamcast but wasn't released on the console AFAIK)
Shinobi (every Sega console but the Dreamcast)
Well there was Planet Harriers for the arcade around the time that the Dreamcast was released. I wouldn't be surprised if a port of that was planned on the console but either didn't get far enough in development or cancelled.Quote:

I think this one reason my Nintendo has been successful they churn out a shit ton of sequels and and rarely bring out new ips. Sega on the other hand was the exact opposite and look were they ended up at lol.
Didn't they have a game called "Planet Harrier"... I remember them talking about it possibly coming to the DC at some point then it never materialized.Quote:

Streets of Rage for sure.
I remember having to mute Shining Force. Streets of Rage 2 sounded like garbage as well. Can't remember what else is on the collection but those 2 stood out particularly as having awful sound. Sega dropped the ball hard on that collection. Which they subsequently outsourced their "Sega Ages" collection for the PS2 and most of those were sloppy upgrades, at least from what I've read/heard.Quote:

I don't think Vector Man wouldn't have been bad if they ever finished it, but the criminally forgotten series are definately Streets of Rage and Shining Force. Too many people got into Sega because of those series that it's downright baffling that they didn't even try to bring them to the DC. Imagine if those series had gotten the royal treatment and launched alongside Sonic Adventure. It would have brought the house down, and there's no doubt that more former Sega fans would have forgiven, forgotten, and actually bought the Dreamcast (well, when it mattered).
Chakan! Chakan! Chakan! Chakan! Chakan!
Those games were the only reason I switched to Xbox after sega quit. Last modern console I ever owned, and to this day I rarely admit owning one.Quote:

Sega used some fan made emulator then they downloaded the roms online so yeah that shows how much they cared about that. As for Sega Ages I bought it for 3.99 earlier this year and I thought it was pretty good. I know people have bitched about Golden Axe but that series was never great IMO (cept for Revenge of Death Adder).Quote:

! I have one for the exact same reason, Sega only. PD Orta, GT, JSRF, Gun Valkyrie, Outrun, Crazy Taxi 3.Quote:
