Good point. Some PC cRPGs and PS1 JRPGs ports would be great for the DC. But I don't know how possible that would be.

That specific pc era mostly is what I am thinking..but yeah ps1 era j rpgs wouldn't be a bad thing..but I would rather play them on a ps3 tbh or something..ots will still be just better regardless.

Prolly won't happen tho, but one can dream.
Wasn't Melty Blood rumoured to come to the DC just before Sega killed off GD production ...?
IIRC, it wasn't that it was rumored, but more so Dreamcast-Scene did a big snailmail campaign to get it ported.
There were quite a few of those back in the day. The one I really wanted to see was Senko no Ronde (which eventually got a western release on the 360 as "Wartech")

Wartech, that was the space beat em up thingy wasn't it? I am sure I had that on 360 and couldn't get to grips with it haha

Its a a SHMUP fighter basically. It's an absolute blast to play once you get the mechanics down. But I do admit it takes a bit to wrap you head around the concept/gameplay.

I think what Dreamcast misses the most is a Dungeon Crawl RPG game. Like First Person ones. Almost every console has at least one.

My top three games that i'd would have loved to see ported would be games that I had always hoped would be released when the machine was in its prime.

Aliens versus Predator
Blade Runner
Messiah

It has been a great year for Dreamcast so far (not much else though) so if someone fancies knocking these up before new year then feel free :D

Chilly WIlly actually was supposed to look into porting AVP to DC. I think that game would SERIOUSLY be a good fit for the DC. Would fit well within the specs of it.

But he eventually left the DC community and that was years, and years and years ago by this point. You can actually see the thread here where I was super excited to have that game.
