Ah yes, the DC.

I first saw one sometime back in 2000. My brother's friend had Grandia 2 & a few other games and I played them for a little bit. Was pretty fun. My brother remembers the system more than I do though.

Next year, I ended up getting a DC sometime after it was officially discontinued (mid-late 2001?). I remember getting Sonic Adventure 2, Crazy Taxi 2, Spiderman, NBA 2K2, & a few other games. At the time, my local Blockbuster only had a small selection, which I think because they were getting rid of DC stuff. The only games available to rent were Capcom vs. SNK, Sonic Adventure 1, Dead or Alive 2, Power Stone 1, & maybe a few others (Late 2001-Early 2002).

More recently, I don't really care much for the system anymore. It really sucks when you have to get a few arcade sticks because the normal D-pad doesn't cut it, only to find out that they cost an arm & a leg.

The DC controller cuts it. You just have to get used to it. Basically you have to love the system.

I received a Dreamcast as a birthday present right when GameStop/EB was clearing them out after the merger. At that point, all that was left was mostly disk only  games, but I did manage to find some good stuff, both Power Stones, Marvel vs. Capcom, Last Blade 2, and some others. I really wanted Marvel vs. Capcom 2 but never found a copy. A couple others that I played often were Frogger 2, Wacky Races, and Tennis 2K2. Even the Sega football and basketball games were really good.

I've never really hunted for the system, but I do have a little over 30 games for it. I did find a Black Sega Sports model at a flea market once, which is pretty cool to have. I have not played the system in years however, but I loved it when I first got it.

I'm a HUGE fan of Dreamcast, but that controller just sucks. I use a stick or a Saturn adaptor every time I can. With games like Shenmue and Skies of Arcadia though you pretty much need the standard controller.

Giga Wing is pretty good & probably one of the cheaper DC shooters out there. Also Gunbird 2.
