Okay so here's my problem: I really love my Dreamcast (Over half of my games are probably imports, and I likely have eighty games for it.) and I want my friend to find that "special game" that will come to his mind when he thinks of the Dreamcast. The problem is that while he loves the Dreamcast hardware and concept, he has a hard time finding games that "do it for him."
To understand where he's coming from, he grew up on the Super Nintendo (missing that blessed 8-bit era). His favorite game companies are Capcom and Nintendo. He doesn't like difficult games. Games with zombies, vampires, or other horror creatures he can't handle (though lately he's been taking a shining to the portable Castlevania games). He doesn't care for shooters or fighters, though he loves beat-em-ups. To him a game is more like a passive form of entertainment that shouldn't present a challenge. His favorite games on the Dreamcast are Shenmue and Phantasy Star Online. His favorite game series are Mario, Pokemon, and Mega Man.
So I beseach you, fellow DP members, to help compile a small list of games that would match his tastes. I know it is difficult with the bevy of arcade games and shooters that the Dreamcast has, but I know we can do it!
