Sega Dreamcast Getting New Games

Posted August 23, 2010 by VentureBeat

European game publisher Redspotgames may be the Sega Dreamcast’s final champion. After releasing several titles on the now-defunct console over the past few years, the company apparently has plans to bring even more games to the Dreamcast, reports Joystiq.

Redspotgames marketing and sales director Adrian Loudero spoke to the site at the Gamescom conference this week: “We have seen some stuff on the PC, and we [are] talking to to the companies to see if they will agree to release on the Dreamcast. We also have plans for 2011, maybe a new release, but this is really all I can say right now.”

The company only sells a few thousand copies of its Dreamcast releases, according to Loudero. Since it can’t rely entirely on Dreamcast aficionados alone for its business, it has recently started developing WiiWare and Xbox Live Arcade titles. Its recent games include the 2D racing game Rush Rally Racing, and the classic shooter Last Hope.

Well obviously there's a market out there for it. If people still made games for my NES or Genesis i'd buy it. They need make a deal with Amazon and other online retailers. I know if they put some stuff out that interested me i'd buy their games for my dreamcast.
Dreamcast games are difficult to get and or expensive used. I was a ps2 guy so I only have like 3 Dreamcast games. Sega likes making games for backwards systems (coughwiicough) so talk them about letting you develop a sonic game for dreamcast too. Get a gow and uncharted rip off and some old ps1 nfs racing games with tracks and i'll buy. Why not? The way the industry is going now i'm going to going backwards too.

Sega should re market their Dreamcast console or make a Dreamcast 2. It's about time to do so.

I want a dreamcast 2 too, with the way they were first to do things (online gaming, etc.) I'll be thrilled to see what would they next.
