dov_EL Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Maybe it's not worth emulating the dreamcast because many of the best Sega Dreamcast titles are available natively for Windows. #Windows Crazy Taxi Jet Set Radio Nights Sega Bass Fishing Sonic Adventure DX Space Channel 5 : Part 2 Ikaruga TrickStyle Grandia® II Anniversary Daytona USA Deluxe Virtua Tennis Virtua Tennis 4 Guilty Gear X 2 ------------------ MAME Mr.Driller Puzzle Fighter Mars Matrix Considering that the emulation for dreamcast to men seems optimized and well taken care of, we are really sure that it is worth emulating the dreamcast?

DOS76 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Since that is such a small list of the DC library I would say that yeah its worth having a DC emulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov_EL Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 For how many and which titles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 That is all going to be subjective to the player and whether they like full collections or just specific games so I really can't answer for anyone else but myself and I find it worth having a DC emulator set up.

neil9000 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dreamcast_games, most of those. I personally love 4 Wheel Thunder, and that's dreamcast only as far as i know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dov_EL Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Skies of Arcadia is avaiable for gameCube too ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 It is, but it's a little different on Gamecube. The GC one has some minor extra content added, has a little bit of censorship from the DC version, and it has much lower quality music. I actually prefer the DC version purely because the music is much better in that version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov_EL Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 PS. Best setting for cpu Apollo Lake,n3450 Intel 505 HD , 4gb RAM ? Null DC ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I don't know, I don't use Null DC - it's pretty terrible. You'd probably be lucky to emulate DC at all, let alone well, with that hardware. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 It does have more random encounters, but honestly that never bothered me. That might be different if I didn't enjoy the combat in the game, but thankfully that's not the case - I really like the combat in Skies of Arcadia. The way I look at it is that the music is present literally every second of the game, so that aspect is worse literally all the time in the GC version, which makes it a no-go for me. It has a great OST - I don't want to hear it downsampled to hell. If I had never played the DC version, the GC version's music might be more tolerable but I got the DC version when it originally released; I didn't play the GC version until many years later, but even then as soon as I heard the music I was like "What is going on here?" because it sounded so much worse. I actually thought there was something wrong with my Gamecube or the disc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
