Best Dreamcast imports for English speakers...

[josekortez]

I've searched this topic on this site, but I haven't found it yet, so I'm asking: which Dreamcast imports (Japanese and European) unreleased in the U.S. are the best and most fun for people who only speak English?

I'm interested in trying out some new titles for my DC, and I don't want to spend half the time looking at a dictionary while trying to play. Also, I'd like to know about games with good control schemes. I've seen games such as Fire Pro Wrestling D and Redline Racer on Ebay, and I'm trying to find out if (a) they're totally different games than anything released in the U.S. and (b) if they're easy to learn to play without knowing Japanese.

Well if your intrested in fighting games theres the ever so excellent capcom vs snk 2 thats out only in japan, also a few KOF games that were not released anywhere else other then japan.

The King of Fighter series does well on the DC, plus, they KEEP King in 2002! Uh, this might be more appropriate in the import forum, since I don't think we did a "Top Imports - DC" thread yet.

I put it in this forum so the avid DC players would be able to see it. From what I've noticed, the import forum doesn't get many hits. If it gets bumped, though, I'll understand.

I need answers on this query, so I'm going to bump this!

BUMP!

Im gonna suggest Fire Pro Wrestling D I like it alot thier are a few Text heavy menus getting into the matches concering times match types etc.. and all the Wrestlers names are in japanse but you can download a patch to put the names in english, and you can print out a translation guide for the menus..

I am going for the full US set of DC games, but as side quests I am also going for the full set of European uniques as well as the Japanese uniques. So far I have all but one of the PAL DC games(European Super League), and am missing loads on the JAP side.

Here are some that I recommend:

PAL:
REZ
Headhunter
Pro Pinball Trilogy
Shenmue 2
Stunt GP
Toy Racer(very cheap, fun in 4-player mode)

JAP:
Cosmic Smash

Puyo Puyo 4

Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo for Matching Service(!!!) IMO the best version of this game as it has more hidden stuff and two extra game modes compared with other versions.

Ikaruga

KOF various

Space Channel 5 part 2

Zero Gunner 2

DDR various

Samba de Amigo ver. 2000
