The Dreamcast had a beautiful list of games. My favorite games probably have to be Project Justice, Karous and Blue Stinger (it's just such a funny game, I love it).

I bought a GDEMU for my DC recently and it's wonderful to be able to digitally play all these DC games without paying an arm and a leg for the disc.

Dreamcast was far ahead of it's time and a victim to poor Corporate decisions. So much potential and unreleased titles. I cry thinking of all the lost experiences. I pray for a Dreamcast/Saturn Mini.

I'm just echoing what a few people have already said lol.
My favourite game was Project Justice, the continuation of the Rival Schools series by Capcom, which is terribly underrated and definitely deserves a new instalment.

It was such a shame as it really had some ground breaking games.

I love the piracy on the Dreamcast. I never grew up with a Dreamcast actually, but when I bought one 6 years ago all I had to do is get a CD-r 700mb cd and burn a cdi file on to it. Since there are games that are super expensive it allowed me to play games I would've never played legally.

Technically we did get a Dreamcast 2 -- the OG Xbox. They both had unusual designs and emphasized online play. It even had several exclusive Sega titles early on that were essentially leftover Dreamcast games. Note the Xbox controller layout, it's nigh-identical to the DC's controller (and in turn to the Saturn's 3D Control Pad), except they added a second analog stick and a couple of extra buttons. They were apparently in talks to enable cross-compatibility between the console s(that fell apart over which online service to use). And, even in ever so small ways, the Dreamcast's legacy lives on into the current, mega-advanced Xbox we see today.

Dreamcast has an amazing library and just a really neat-looking piece of hardware. I think the fact that it was Sega's swan song that arrived too late to save them lends a certain tragic air to it, too. And it has that cool spiral logo.

I actually heard some modders got the servers back up for Street Fighter 2 Alpha on that thing, kind of impressive that people are able to do that

Never owned a Dreamcast but I played many of it's games through various ports and emulation. Skies of Arcadia, Sonic Adventure 2, Phantasy Star Online, and Jet Set Radio are my current favorites!

Shout out to the best fighting game series of all time: Power Stone! Easily the most fun games I have in my collection! I'm still trying to find other games to add, but I just can't get enough of that goofy game :)

I'm a total psycho for the Dreamcast! Every day I find out about some cool game that I've never heard of before on the 'Cast. It's full of surprises! I dig it!

I think the NGC was the spiritual successor to the Dreamcast. Some of my favorites, including the Sonic Adventure series and Evolution got ported to the NGC.
