For me, its DOA2

Because BOOBA

MvC2, I'm bad at fighting games so I just want good looking sprites with characters I like doing crazy stuff

>>7450005
I only had SF3:3S and SA3 for it, but at this point you're better off playing them on FightCade.
Power Stone and SoulCalibur are probably the best DC fighting games (that don't have superior ports), along with >>7450029
which was actually a very good port, since the Naomi and DC were very similar systems.

>>7450064
Which is better? SF3:3S or SA3?

>>7450072
3rd Strike because Sonic Adventure 3 doesn't exist.

>>7450078
fug I mean SFA3

>>7450072
Alpha 3

>>7450005
CvS2

>>7450005
KoF '98 and '02 take the cake for me. And I know this is an uncommon opinion but I like the Dreamcast Dpad better than any others for fighters. It's small and rocks just right so I can do Orochinagi motions and double half circles faster and easier on it than any other, including my old hori stick.

>>7450005
CvS 2 is the only right answer. The CPS2 & CPS3 ports sucked. Soulcalibur falls apart in versus play. And Marvel 2 was a recycle fest with ADHD gameplay.

>>7450005
>favorite fighter on the Dreamcast
Capcom vs SNK and Soul Calibur

>which fighters work the best on a standard Dreamcast controller
Anything that doesn't use 6 buttons

What are some games that use 4 buttons that are not DoA2, Powerstone, Soul Calibur or MvC2?
Also: Why is there no aftermarket 6 button Dreamcast controller available for a console that had a very high number of 2d-fighters?

I like it too, p.good for 8-way arcade games in general. It gets mushy to fast though.

>>7450005
Soul Calibur. Because it's fun.

>>7450005
soul calibure because of the crisp VGA graphics

>>7451015
there is. it's just a saturn pad with a Dreamcast connection

>>7452282
this thing feels so cheap and shoddy, ironic considering how expensive it goes for.

you're better off getting that green dreamcast arcade stick.

>>7452282
cute

>>7452256
Wow. I just bought a 'cast yesterday and it came with cruddy composite cables. I'm gonna go order VGA asap.
But from what I read, I though soulcalibur does not display in VGA?? My 'cast isn't modded (yet)

>>7452406
The NTSC-U version of SC supports VGA natively without any patches.

>>7452416
That's awesome, thanks man.

Did they port Kenji to Dreamcast yet?

>>7452406
My copy says right on the box it's VGA compatible and I've played it on VGA cables. IDK if there are other versions that are incompatible.

Didn't even have to think twice about it.

Sadly nobody will play it with me.

>>7452503
Fuck me mine says it right there. That's what I get for skimming info online before I read the damn box. VGA cable has been ordered.

>>7450080
Alpha 3 is dogshit

>>7452536
Hope you got the cheapest one, they are all the same cable with different prices.

Based on current tastes CvS2 but I have very fond memories of playing Garou on it. But this whole subject is a stark reminder of how pants-on-head retarded Sega of America was, that there were SO many fighting games ported to Dreamcast subtitled "for matching service" with the sole purpose of including online play, and they just went "nah Americans don't want that"

>>7452282
This thing is SHIT. It looks great in photos. But in person its clunky, slow and shitty. If you want a decent DC controller buy a PSX-to-DC converter and run a namco stick. Or mod the DC agetec stick with sanwa/seimitsu.

>Nobody mentioned Project Justice

>>7453165
fighters were dead and buried in america by the late 90s, and are horrible with any kind of lag. no one who was still playing fighting games then was going to do h2h over 56k

>>7452406
if you're using a VGA box with the switch, you can do the ol' switcheroo
set it to non-RGB, boot up the game
when it's past the boot sequence, switch back to VGA and it'll work

might take a few tries to figure out the timing

Special shout-out to Capcom's polygonal fighters. Project Justice, Plasma Sword, and Tech Romancer. Sucks there was never a third entry in the Star Gladiator series

>>7452587
3S was a bad port.

>>7450005

>>7454280
Much easier to just download the patched versions and not have to fuck with it. From what I remember the only games that absolutely refuse to work in 480p no matter what are Hydro Thunder, BangaiO and the Acclaim wrestling games.
