GAMECUBE on the Retroid Pocket 3 … Was I too quick to write this off?
That LeManns racing game takes the cake here for best graphics ever on a dreamcast...2nd place soul calibur
Shenmue - one love ❤️ The best game all-time. 🫶
I think such lists should separate re-released games, like make the list name only EXCLUSIVE games and/or gamest hat multiplaform but best on Dreamcast. I was "disappointed" that you put Shenmue #1 because it has superior version, so that place could be used for some exclusive Dreamcast game instead also i think some other games had re-relases on PC and modern consoles
OP, the only issue with dreamcast is for racing games right? otherwise for horror games and whaatver else games its fine? and going down as sega classics its fine for all gens?
Demolition Racer No Exit is one of the best also need to figure it out
Hi and thx for the nostalgy ! Just i think you missed NBA 2K1 , Alone in the dark and Stupid invaders .
for me i buy the one without the stick still 34$ now the old release one is cheaper than this 50$ one
Le Mans is 60fps btw. I remember playing it on a tiny 19" tv and it was as smooth as butter. Phantasy Star Online v.2 was my first EVER gaming experience online. I cherish the memories that game gave me. Especially the girl running away from me when i asked her what 'lol' meant :p Great times man.
I was HOOKED on doa3 for xbox for MONTHS
"we have Gran Turismo at home"
Great video for technical reasons, but speak for yourself at 12:32. Imo they made the hunting and shooting worse in adventure 2. The shooting in 2 is much slower, more clunky and drags in places compared to Gamma's. Knuckles/Rouge's moves and feel is better than 1, but the one at a time radar artificially lengthens playtime. Even the mostly great speed sections are more closed off, ditched the euphoric spin dash jump and have less shortcuts. I'd rather play any big or amy level more than most of 2's shooting levels.
Thanks, fair point. I think in Adventure I felt like there was just too much outside of the brilliant Sonic levels. If you dial in to the main mechanics then you may be right…
My Favourite: 1) Soul Calibur - The best version was on the Dreamcast: 2) Metropolis Street Racer - One of the finest Racers ever that defined what a racing game should be. "It's not about how fast you drive, but about how you drive fast": 3) Shenmue 1 and 2 - Just Simply Awesome: 4) Ready 2 Rumble - A highly playable and incredibly fun game to play: 5) Virua Tennis - Perhaps one of the best tennis games ever made: 6) F355 Ferrari Challenge - One of the purest racers to ever grace a video games console. Yes, it was hard, but it matured into a fine racer with experience and practice.
Thanks for the reply, I think Ready 2 Rumble in particular doesn’t get the credit it deserves. Ok it may not have the most depth but as you say it’s a huge amount of fun. Especially in multiplayer
19:05 Why your record of Shenmue runs smoothly? I finished Shenmue 2 in my SEGA Dreamcast in 2001 or 2002 but it never ran this smooth!
The captures are via emulation. So a good chance this smooths things out somewhat. Although I have played the game a lot of real hardware and it’s pretty damn smooth
@@thegamelounge659 Mine also ran smoothly but not this smooth. Maybe back in the day it depends on what CRT you are using?
Can you play online on siwtch emulation?
You cannot I’m afraid. You need to have a real switch to play online
Es-de frontend is TRASH!!!! Daijisho way better
I love Daijisho, but it hasn’t been updated in a while. ES-DE for me looks so slick and work so well. Out of interest what do you find works better in Daijisho?
MDK2 and Soul Reaver were both great looking games on DC. Not sure how they’re not on this list. I would have ranked Rayman 2 higher as well. I always thought it was one of the best looking. NHL 2K is another one that looked great.
Agree, Soul Reaver was certainly the best version of that game. Both were in my shortlist. I never really played the NHL games on DC. I will need to check them out
I remember being 15 when the Dreamcast was launch, I sold my PS1 and bought the DC, to this day one of my favorite consoles of all time
Love that, so many people just let the DC pass by waiting for the PS2! They seriously missed out
@@thegamelounge659 yeah most of my friends did, even though most of them used to go play games like virtua fighter 3, soul calibur, MVC, code Veronica..A couple of them got it when the DC was on its last legs and got cheaper
Amazing top 20! I owned all these games but a couple. Dreamcast is still my favorite console ever, even if I had a lot since C64
Agree, it still holds a place amongst my top consoles. Up there with the Mega Drive and Xbox 360
For emulation I prefer it over my Steamdeck
Totally, obviously the Steamdeck does native PC games. So they are different machines but for Emulation the ODIN 2 is superior IMO
I bought the Japanese release of the Dreamcast at an import store in Chinatown when it was released because I couldn't wait to play it. I was blown away at the visuals at the time, especially the framerates because there was nothing like it in terms of 3d graphics.
Yes, I remember a friend bringing one back from Japan with Soul Calibur and everyone being blown away
Awesome job!
Thanks so much!
DOOM on SNES also required an additional chip...strange you didn't mention that, yet had to say VR on MD was running an extra chip and was the WORST version.....much like SNES DOOM is renowned for...
True, I guess with DOOM the reason I didn’t include was the developer has stated a few times that actually with more optimising he feels the game could have run even smoother on SNES with the SuperFX Chip and that it could have been a better port. Which is why I didn’t consider it. But DOOM running on SNES in any format is pretty incredible
@@thegamelounge659 SNES DOOM is a amazing conversion for sure. The maps are even more accurate than the Jaguar ports. It truly is incredible.
Where is Sturmwind ??
Good point, it’s a beautiful game. I didn’t include after market games though
what about windows games emulation? Winlator/Exagear/Horizon ? And Switch AAA project, like Wither 3, Dark Souls and etc.
So Witcher 3/Dark Souls all work with no issues through Switch emulation. I haven’t actually tried any windows emulation yet, that will be the next evolution of this device for me. Not to sure if many others can comment on this?
WHY BURNING RANGERS IS NOT TOP 1 BUT THE SONIC GAME WITH THE WORST SONIC MODEL YES???? (sonic jam and 3d blast had a better one, there are photos out there)
Burning Rangers is beautiful, but for me personally there was just too much slowdown. Ok the Sonic model in Sonic R wasn’t great. But the overall visuals were fantasyic
@@thegamelounge659 Sonic Jam and the special stages of 3d blast used more imoressive lighting effects and look better, burning Ranger was practically an early sega dreamcast Game 😭
Ok i forgot you said "i think" at the start i'm sorry
Rise of the tomb raider on Xbox 360 looks better then the last of us on the PlayStation 3, I would say it is the best looking game out of every Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 game
Yes, there is a great DF video out there on how it was scaled back carefully to run on a 360. It’s really interesting, highly recommend you check it out
Is it possible to use with retroarch app on android TV box?
Yes, it syncs up like a normal controller and works great. I have tried it with a FireTV stick which is a custom version of Android with no issues
@@thegamelounge659 thanks for your answer!! Nice I'm using a retroarch on an android TV box and I was looking for a control with Sega format with analogue. This is perfect!
resident evil?
Great looking game, but for this list I focused on 3D visuals, and since most of RE is pre-rendered backgrounds I did overlook it.
Maybe I'm wrong but wasn't virtua fighter 3b pretty clean too?
It looked good, I actually think people were too harsh on it overall but I don’t think it’s in the same league as DOA2 or Soul Calibur
Virtua Tennis looked like real life back then. It was mind blowing.
Yeah, I remember seeing the game in the arcades. When I saw it was coming to Dreamcast it was a Day 1 must have for me
Yes you are right Shenmue masterpice Dreamcast power Max
Can’t believe the JP version actually released in 1998!
Just ordered mine for £23 all in, cant wait
Great price!
World driver championship?
I didn’t include it. If I am honest I never played it a huge amount. So many people have recommended the game. I need to give it another look
Really good list! Make a second list!
Thanks very much! I should make another list of there are enough games for a part 2!
Do your controller’s Switch macros work? Just got this controller and none of those macros do what they’re supposed to. Super bummed, I really need the dpad to be able to do analog stick inputs
Cant believe I just found this channel. You make good videos
Thanks for the comment. Glad you are enjoying!
World Driver Championship, that's a great racing game with arcade and simulation features, as well as really nice graphics, soundtrack, visual effects and gameplay that would put it on pair with Gran Turismo
A lot of people have mentioned this one now. I have played it before but it never left a great impression. Will have to give it another try I think!
Shocking audio quality mate. We're not 2011 anymore.
Yes, I really should go back and re-record this one 😂😂😂
@@thegamelounge659 otherwise good compilation btw
What's the current best Swîtçh emulator and is it found on the store or elsewhere?
Shenmue was the reason I bough the dreamcast, just absolutely incredible one of my favorite games I ever played.
The people that played that game at launch truly had an incredible experience most wouldn’t see in games for many years
The Dreamcast was so good!!! 👌
So true, one of the best times in gaming!
I really like this controller, i personally think that it would be fine with most games on the Saturn but if you just want something for the Saturn go with something that has a better analogue stick or save some money and get one closer to the original. My only complaints are the small sticks, the digital triggers and the fact the C and Z buttons are automatically mirroring the L and R buttons. But for the most part this is a good classic Sega controller and I am happy I got one.
Totally agree with everything you say here!
Do you this can handle crt royale shaders with snes and megadrive emulators
Yes with ease. In fact all the footage in this video was captured using this: Why You Should Install Retroarch Twice!!! CRT vs. Smooth Filtering ruclips.net/video/PxqCZCmJpGs/видео.html
I remember playing my first game of soul caliber and marvel vs capcom and being blown away
The step up from the Saturn/N64/PS was incredible
Do you have the pro or max version?
Pro version, at the moment I don’t really see the need for the MAX.
I've loved my Odin 2 very much. Like you, I'm enjoying a lot of gen 6, especially PS2... Playing through vice city again on a handheld just feels wonderful. That said, the state of MAME emulation is the only thing holding it back, but that's a knock on Android more than the Odin 2 as the existing Android MAME emulators just stink.
Yes this is a gen 6 handheld for sure. The PS2 in particular is really impressive. Interesting you are not a fan of MAME. I’m not hugely into MAME but I tried MAME4Droid and thought it was pretty good on the whole.
@@thegamelounge659 you sir are a gentleman and a scholar. I was using Retroarch, bouncing between a few cores like fbneo. I tried MAME4Droid 2024 and practically everything I've tried runs. Only thing I don't like is touching the screen brings up a menu, still trying to figure out how to disable that. But for now, I'm in business, thanks!
I actually think DC is better looking than PS2. Is more colorful and vibrant. Ps2 is dark and gritty to look at.
Nice video! Is ES-DE in the app store, and how much does it cost? 🍻
Hey Tony, it’s about £6, but that gives you a license for all devices and updates. I have actually added all the links in my description.
Post the links in the description please!
Will do 👍🏻
All posted, thanks for the feedback
This makes me want one of these systems
I still love mine, play most days!
