I don't agree, without Shenmue there wouldn't be games like Yakuza, people are still asking for Jet Set Radio 2, the old style of resident evil games are the best on Dreamcast ( life bar on your VMU). Dreamcast was the first console to bring online console gaming to the masses. They had some great RPG's exclusive to the Dreamcast at the time like Evolution, Skies of Arcadia and Grandia 2.
The arcade to console library was great to, think about Mars Matrix and Ikaruga.
So in my opinion it's a great console with lots of great games, now Atomiswave is available the library of great games is expanding. Love me some Metal Slug 6
