I hope it’s soon, we got blueballed a few months ago when it came out that the devs were unlocking achievements and then…. nothing. Until now. When is the Xbox conference dates for? Imagine it’ll be then? Hope it’s this week instead though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted June 5, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 5, 2022 A theory was it has been done for ages but the announcement was knocked back due to an abundance of caution over the Ukraine war (similar to how Nintendo have just stopped talking about the Advance Wars remake). The hopeful thinking is a 'and it's out now!' reveal at the event this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sega CD is one system that's kind of hard to emulate. The original Genesis mini had superb emulation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only play them on a emulator system or on the original dreamcast which i have. The dreamcast controllers were huge so they would need to make those smaller as they would be bigger than the console! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a software bundle on modern consoles would be great though. A lot of the best titles have been ported elsewhere like Shenmue, Sonic Adventure 1/2, Ikaruga, Jet Set Radio etc, but I'd love to see some of the more niche arcade titles that the console is so beloved for.

Keyblade Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Just now, hogso said: Skies of Arcadia! Surprised that never saw a re-release! Grandia 2 has a remaster on modern consoles. God I wish the Dreamcast had more great RPGs like these. At least the GameCube version exists, though I bet even that costs a pretty penny nowadays.
