the Dreamcast (and its relevance in 2019)

[jb143]

I used to see a lot of Dreamcast stuff at thrift stores around 2005 or so but never bought any of it because it wasn't retro enough at the time so it didn't really interest me. I eventually bought a lot a few years ago but still regret not buying the stuff when it was reasonably cheap and more abundant.

Well it hasn't gotten out of hand, though obviously not as common as Xbox or PS2. Gamecube stuff has really shot up in price as that age group gets older.

Yeah, it's definitely more a lack of finding anything now more than cost...I can't remember the last time I've seen any Dreamcast anything at a thrift store. Game stores usually have a single shelf of games but cost is usually a premium there... like you said, usually not outrageous but still more than I care to spend.

Dreamcast is home to some of the best fighting games ever, thus it will always be relevant.

Also, proud owner of the DC version of Resident Evil 2... which I need to replay.

Crazy Taxi is def my favourite game of any console. Metropolis Street racer is excellent too. I haven't played my DC for about a year but will get myself sorted out soon

I was kinda mad when they ported Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 to the GameCube, leaving even fewer exclusives on the console.

Has anyone played Crazy Taxi or Sonic Adventure 1/2 on the GameCube? Or PS2 Crazy Taxi? How do the versions compare to the DC?

There are slight pro's and cons, though overall not much of a difference.

You're forgetting about the Dreamcast Collection for the Xbox 360, both Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure are on it.

Weirdly the later Steam version of the Dreamcast Collection adds Nights into Dreams into the collection as well, even though it's a Saturn game. Did they run out of decent Dreamcast games or something? Just very odd to add this game.

I had PS2 Crazy Taxi as a kid. I remember Dreamcast Crazy Taxi being slightly better, felt more natural with the controller.

GAmecube version is great, and since you can play it on the Wii, you are saving your DC from a bit of wear
