What are some Dreamcast import games I should look into?
What are some Dreamcast import games I should look into?
My Gaming Collection (Now at Google Drive!)
Whoa nelly, what a broad question.
It really depends on what you like, which you've graciously omitted. Yet, I kid.
Shooting
-Ikaruga
-Border Down
-Zero Gunner 2
-Under Defeat
-TriggerHeart Excelica
-Psyvariar 2: The Will to Fabricate
-Radilgy
-Karous
-Twinkle Star Sprites
Really, I could stop there, although that's primarily why people import for the 'Cast. I'd suggest in that order too, or close to it.
I'd recommend you also look into the following:
Cleopatra Fortune (Puzzle), Doki Doki Idol Star Seeker Remix (Puzzle), Sega Tetris (Puzzle), L.O.L. (Adventure-Puzzle-&then some), Mobile Suit Gundam DX (Action), Cosmic Smash (Sports), Vampire Chronicle (Fighting), and that's about all I can immediately think of at this time of night. The great thing about Dreamcast is that nearly all the great games got worldwide release so I think there aren't too many to get that are import exclusive, which is nice. In order to establish your own opinion might I suggest scanning Yakumo's great SegagaDomain. That link will take you to his played game directory where he gives (sometimes) a brief synopsis of X game.

Yes, it does depend what type of game, I heartily recommend the following:
Capcom vs SNK 2
Psyvariar 2
Ikaruga
Under Defeat
Cool Cool Toon
Cosmic Smash
and Europe/Japan exclusives:
Rez (PAL release also)
Shenmue II (PAL release)
Most of my Japanese imports I either haven't played or haven't put enough time into yet...
My faves:
Get Colonies (puzzle game like 3D checkers)
Rez (European version)
I've got others, but they're in storage and not that great.
Currently catching up on PSN, WiiWare, Wii U E-Shop and Xbox Live Arcade exclusives I missed.
Rez
Napple Tale
Shenmue II
Ikaruga
Border Down
Shikigami no Shirou 2
Cosmic Smash (f'n EPIC!)
Space Channel 5 Part 2.
Radirgy and Karous I find to be highly overrated. Not worth the money.
I recommend you to look dreamcast import.
Grandia II Special Package
Sega Rally 2
Dino Crisis
Virtua Striker 2 Ver. 2000.1
Roommania # 203
Blue Stinger
US Shenmue
Guilty Gear X
Silent Scope
There ain't any cool games left that i can recommend you coz all my classic and rare games have been mentioned by the fellows...........
I like Evil Twin
Tritium (aka Mel)
------
What's Napple Tale like? (And is it worth the $60 it seems to be fetching on eBay these days?)
I've only played it once so my opinions probably aren't worth much but I spent far far far too long in cutscenes I couldn't understand and didn't get too much action. The game does seem very text/story heavy, well, at least near the beginning. It was enough to put me off playing any further.
$50 included shipment?
If it says SNK or Playmore on the packaging, buy two of each.
