What fighting games do i get? (DreamCast Edition)

[union7512]

So a while back, i posted a thread for people recommending fighting games on the PS1, and now that I am in dreamcast emulation, I want YOU ALL to recommend me fighting games that are actually good.
Let the recommendations begin!

The better question is which one SHOULDN’T you get on Dreamcast, because nearly every fighter on the platform is quality.

(But Capcom anything is something to aim for, as well as Virtua Fighter 3 and Dead or Alive 2)

MY PERSONAL RECOMMENDATIONS!

Project Justice: the sequel to Rival Schools: United by Fate, this game is absolute perfection, if you like Capcom's fighting games so this one is pretty much required! Really fun 3v3 fighting game with a great cast of characters, great music, really pretty graphics and a very interesting story mode. I love this game and I highly recommend it.

Fighting Vipers 2: sequel to Fighting Vipers, and it's just as good as the first game, if you like Virtua Fighter than this one is just as great \o\

Tech Romancer: spiritual successor to Cyberbots, this game is a odd mix of several giant robots based on different categories of mecha anime (Super Robots, Real Robots, Magical Girl, Ultraman), and I love it. The story mode is REALLY in-depth as well, with a lot of different routes for the characters, the game is really fun in general, and you can even unlock Jin Saotome from Cyberbots as well!

Street Fighter Alpha 3: come on. It's Street Fighter Alpha 3. You know you want more Alpha 3 :V

The Dreamcast has a LOT of great fighting games, this is just the tip of the iceberg xD

You'll lose HOURS to SoulCalibur. It's a hefty game. Can't go wrong with Street Fighter 3rd Strike either.

 

[Varyag]

Dead or Alive 2 is really good! It's where the series really started to get popular.

 

[Glossy Cat]

I liked: Soulcalibur, Capcom VS SNK, The Rumble Fish (1 and 2), Dead or Alive 2, Marvel VS Capcom 2, Project Justice, Street Fighter Alpha 3, Power Stone (1 and 2), Virtua Fighter 3 TB, Plasma Sword and Fighting Vipers 2.

I hope this helped.

SF alpha 3 too, but I don't count that one simply because I think the Saturn version is superior

 

[Don Patch]

The answer to your question is "yes".
As in "all of them".

 

[Clippy]

All of them. I mean, did Dreamcast even have bad fighting games?

 

[Unreal]

Tech Romancer. Still mad it wasn't included in that new collection they just released with some of their 3d fighters.

 

[Stingy Perry Stingy Perry]

There’s no such thing as a bad fighting game for the Dreamcast which means all of them are worth playing.

 

[Aziamuth]

I don't know much about fighters on the Dreamcast, except that 2nd Impact has widescreen support there and it looks gorgeous. On the other hand, Hugo is even worse, if that matters lol

 

[χKai]

Street Fighter III 3rd Strike
Capcom vs SNK 2

I got these for Dreamcast because they emulate so nicely

Unlike trying to emulate PS2 on android

 

[StoneyKenobi]

GUILTY GEAR X

 

[Graves Ruinwalker]

All of them. I mean, did Dreamcast even have bad fighting games?

Not really . Flawed at least but still great on their own.

Like Spawn : at the demons Hand and Heavy Metal geomatrix . But those have a more stricter or losely gameplay and still show great potential what can be squeezed Out from those concepts.

And the Peak of 3D fighting gaming : POWER STONE !!!

 

[Mahan_Native]

Street Fighter III 3RD Strike
Dead or Alive 2
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future
Project Justice
Street Fighter Alpha 3
Power Stone 1 + 2
Capcom vs SNK
Soul Calibur
Guilty Gear X

Find yourself a good alternate controller, that DC controller was shit. And not just shit for fighters, just shit in general

Some may disagree. I will not. That controller hurt my hand when I tried to play MVC2 with it.

And, thankfully, you have plenty of easily accessible options! Retrofighter DC is the one I’ve heard most.

Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is the peak.
It runs like the Arcade version.
