As a proud owner of 2 Dreamcast models for over 10 years, I cannot believe I've never heard of Silver! Gotta find it now! And that's why I love this Channel. Btw, E.G.G. is still one of my favorites.
Love Silver proper hidden gem, played it on the PC and the DC port holds up well. Great real time battles, swords, magic and a great story. Also has really nice pre-rendered backgrounds.
It's thrilling to see Record of Lodoss War make it on this list. I love that game! Thanks for making this list. It's given me some to keep an eye on to expand my collection.
Joseph Jenkins racy! I just played it an hour ago and LOVE IT! I adjust the controls to “D1” with forward/backward/strafe left/right mapped to the buttons on the right instead of the awful default, which has you move with the “+” digital while simultaneously using the analogue stick to look around (virtually impossible to use your left thumb to do both), Right trigger to shoot, Left to jump, D-Pad up to change weapons, down to change view (first person or behind character), and analogue to look and turn). It can take some getting used to, but you’ll be glad you did! *This control scheme also works GREAT for Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament* Gameplay: levels are tight, designed for arcades, smaller than in some other games, but perfectly designed, amping up the rush. Rock solid 60fps, typical but awesome weapons, and in contrast to most FPS games, it’s bright not gloomy and the colors really pop! You can use a DC mouse/keyboard, but I’d rather eat my own teeth. Graphics are excellent, as it’s a true SEGA-made game that was directly ported from the arcade. They could network several arcade machines together, AND you could play it on your DC at home directly against arcade players in real-time! It automatically matches speed to an even rate to keep it fair, and it does also work with the DC broadband adapter (if you know where I can find one, please reply, as the Dreamcast is still very alive online via fan-servers). Fast, Furious, Frenzied, Outtrigger is *still* ahead of its time!
Almost all of DC games excepts from sega themselves are hidden gems... Worth playing for new experience they offered, and ofc their playstation port games also quite good
This is a nice list. I had completely forgotten about Gundam Side Story... going to have to try and track a US copy of that one down to import. Nice to see so many system exclusives included too.
Gamewiz W That’s sad, but I could only afford the bootleg, and that crashed before the end of the final stage. Still an awesome game though. I really like the sword duels. Not sure if there are any other first person Gundam games out there. Berserk was also pretty good.
The Dreamcast had so many great games out of it's limited run. If they had built it with a DVD drive instead of CD, it would have opened up the system for some truly epic games.
Thanks for watching Dandys =) Definitely worth picking one up, so many great ga es released on the system. It’s just a shame it was Sega’s last ever console!
Dandys11 I have one with 4 controllers a memeory card for 2 of them and sonic adventure 1&2 house of the dead 3 or 2 E.G.G. and skies of Arcadia all perfect condition with a madcatz extr controller. And aa light gun
Oh yeah! Maken-X! I'd say my favorite hidden gem on Dreamcast is the shmup, Mars Matrix. People tend to side with Ikaruga or maybe Rez, but Capcom's Mars Matrix has a great gameplay look with currency and unlockables that makes it the best shoot-em-up on the console to me.
Makes me kind of wish that Sega could get back into the console market. Or even that the dreamcast had a longer lifespan. I would want to see what sega could do with their own hardware when they knew what they were doing.
Everyone MUST play ILLBLEED. That game...Is so wonderfully bizarre and I will never play another game like it. It takes after horror movies, each of the 6 levels parodying one film or a trope. And level 6 is something you need to play for yourself, it's absolute gold.
I would add Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage i touched a dreamcast one time in my whole life it's not very common in my country late i played berserk on an emulator and loved it i wish i could try it on the original hardware using the original controller
The sword swing is way too wide in that game compared to the narrow level design. You end up hitting the wall instead of enemies, which gets annoying fast. If not for that it would be a pretty good game.
@@ll1844 That's actually one of the defining of the game and the manga, making the use a gigantic sword more realistic instead of turning into a clipping festival as happens in most games that feature giant swords.
Oh yes definitely Maken X is amazing, I loved this game still do, sadly I don't own a copy of it unfortunately, I hear it's getting a bit pricey to buy and a bit harder to find these days.
Frame Gride, a game with mechs in a fantasy world made by From Software. Langrisser Millennium, one of the DC games that deserves a translation patch the most. Blue Stinger, is very good, most the criticism it had was due to the use of a third person camera instead of fixed angles as other survival horrors but it makes the game better than the original version.
Super Runabout and Gundam Side Story looking cool. I'd add Propeller Arena and Half Life to that list, both finished but unreleased worth checking out.
I had almost every game on the dream cast including the Japanese ones (thanks to the fact the games could be pirated and my local video shop owner was a full blown pirate)my favourites were shenmue 2, power stone 2, omicron (starring David Bowie ) soup calibre , commandos 2 , jet set radio , and a Japanese truck driving game I never knew the name of I used to get my games for between £8-£20
Nice selection! A few of my faves are on it. BUT.... you left out the number ONE hidden gem for the Deamcast!! EVIL TWIN- Cyprien's Chronicles! Also, OMIKRON- The Nomad Soul.
@arbereshe yeah that's the best part. XD I watched a LP of illbleed a couple of years ago and that's the first time I heard of it, let alone gameplay and man does it rock in a so bad it's good kinda way. XD
My favorite game of them all no if ever anyone don't talk about it enough I love that game as a kid I still do as an adult 200?!!!!!! I had no idea I thought it's release was 1997- 1996
Dandys11 I have one with 4 controllers a memeory card for 2 of them and sonic adventure 1&2 house of the dead 3 or 2 E.G.G. and skies of Arcadia all perfect condition with a madcatz extr controller. And aa light gun
It WAS a port of a PlayStation game... That's probably why.They didn't try with that one. An example of a port that tried is Rayman 2, it's a port of the Nintendo 64 version that improves on every aspect. Better visuals and higher resolution textures, 60fps, more content. And a flawless execution (still considered the definitive version to date, and was even used as the basis for the 3DS version).
Yeah like the US exclusive E.G.G., that was Europe's bes- wait. I mean, Illbleed, shame it was only released in the European country of the United Stat- Hold on... Maybe your brain is a European exclusive, because there's no way you have one with you over there.
As a proud owner of 2 Dreamcast models for over 10 years, I cannot believe I've never heard of Silver! Gotta find it now! And that's why I love this Channel. Btw, E.G.G. is still one of my favorites.
Hope you enjoy it when you pick it up! Thanks for watching!

@@viktor_v-ughnda_vaudville_476 what's a gun dam jawn??
GAMES ARE SO DAM EXPENSIVE IT SUCKS!!! EVERY CONSOLE SNES,64,GAMECUBE,DREAMCAST IT'S OUTRAGEOUS
I can’t believe it either. How did you manage that? Even 25 years ago when I bought my Dreamcast and didn’t know that much about VG, I got Silver. 😁
Love Silver proper hidden gem, played it on the PC and the DC port holds up well. Great real time battles, swords, magic and a great story. Also has really nice pre-rendered backgrounds.
One of the best RPGs on the system. Shame it didn’t get the attention it deserved!
It's thrilling to see Record of Lodoss War make it on this list. I love that game! Thanks for making this list. It's given me some to keep an eye on to expand my collection.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good choices, but Outrigger deserves an honorable mention.
Great suggestion! Outrigger was a great game.

@@sideswipe1261 or just use the Dreamcast mouse and keyboard and is way better to control.

True
Maken X looks like a game that should've gotten a second chance on the Wii.
Totally agree, it would have been perfect for that console.
It was however released on PS2 except they dropped the first person view for a third person. It's called maken shao
Maken X is amazing. I still play that game on my Dreamcast. And it runs at 60 fps no drops. Its incredible
Very underrated game in my opinion. Very cool concept.
This is a nice list. I had completely forgotten about Gundam Side Story... going to have to try and track a US copy of that one down to import. Nice to see so many system exclusives included too.
I'm so happy Gundam Side Story is on here. When I was a kid, it got so many rentals. Being a broke kid sucked.
Haha it’s such a good game. I can understand why you rented it so much!
I was never able to acquire it :-(.
Gamewiz W That’s sad, but I could only afford the bootleg, and that crashed before the end of the final stage.
Still an awesome game though. I really like the sword duels. Not sure if there are any other first person Gundam games out there.
Berserk was also pretty good.
Great list. I have a few of these in my small collection. First time hearing about Super Roundabout and it looks awesome
Interesting picks dude! Record of Lodoss War is fantastic! Never heard of Napple Tale, looks great! :)
Nice! Glad I could suggest something you haven’t heard of man 😅🙂
The Dreamcast had so many great games out of it's limited run. If they had built it with a DVD drive instead of CD, it would have opened up the system for some truly epic games.
I've always wanted to own Dreamcast, definitely gotta buy one as I already know what to play on it :) thank you!
I've always wanted to play D2
Thanks for watching Dandys =) Definitely worth picking one up, so many great ga es released on the system. It’s just a shame it was Sega’s last ever console!
@@mregg2612 True, I do own D on ps1, but I never played the sequel
Dandys11 I have one with 4 controllers a memeory card for 2 of them and sonic adventure 1&2 house of the dead 3 or 2 E.G.G. and skies of Arcadia all perfect condition with a madcatz extr controller. And aa light gun
Never knew record,of lodoss,war, was,an action adventure game I’d dream,cast I need that
You're truly the king at finding hidden gems. Never heard of any of these games and will definitely be adding a couple to the collection!
Honorable mention goes to D2
Great suggestion, we covered that in a previous episode.
Record of Lodoss War is my favorite DC game. A definite must play.
Cool list, not heard of any of these and I love the dreamcast. I would probably add Slave Zero, another underrated mech game.
Agreed, Slave Zero is incredible.
I thought i knew every game on the Dreamcast butmost of these were new to me! Thanks!
Oh yeah! Maken-X!
I'd say my favorite hidden gem on Dreamcast is the shmup, Mars Matrix. People tend to side with Ikaruga or maybe Rez, but Capcom's Mars Matrix has a great gameplay look with currency and unlockables that makes it the best shoot-em-up on the console to me.
Perfect timing. I just got a Dreamcast.
Cool
How much did you pay for it??
Just 70. An extra 5 for a memory card and since I usually target repros, I spend 15-20 for each game I get.
Expendable is a game that needs more love. Also under defeat, and border down if you like shoot em ups.
came because of Maken X in the thumbnail. got hype because you mentioned Carrier and Elemental Gimmick Gear
Proud owner of all these games....except Napple Tale.
Cool video
Thanks for watching!
Insane A Sock I bought that one when I was a Dreamcast collector because the OST is amazing. That being said sold it way under value...alas
Makes me kind of wish that Sega could get back into the console market. Or even that the dreamcast had a longer lifespan. I would want to see what sega could do with their own hardware when they knew what they were doing.
Exactly 🥺
Sega was amazing.
@@JonathanHarrisNews Sega is still amazing lol
@@midnight_purple5461 they're... um... they're still around...
@@JonathanHarrisNews lol I know it sounded like you said they weren't lol
Elemental Gimmick gear is one of the best games on the Dreamcast and a fantastic rpg in every aspect :-)
Dude no one talks about Super Runabout or Gundam Side Story. Great video
Glad you enjoyed it Ian! Thanks for watching.
As an Armored Core fan, and a fan of making things go boom in games, Gundam looks cool, thanks.
Glad you found something you liked!
I have a still sealed copy of Illbleed I bought many years ago from the USA for about £10. It was a shock to see how much it's fetching now.
I thought I knew all the hidden gems... Went in with a crooked smile and then realized that I only had half... Good thing its tax season
Glad you found some new games to play, enjoy!
Awesome list, alot of mine own were on this. Another one is Time Stalkers. A unique and magical experience.
Everyone MUST play ILLBLEED. That game...Is so wonderfully bizarre and I will never play another game like it. It takes after horror movies, each of the 6 levels parodying one film or a trope. And level 6 is something you need to play for yourself, it's absolute gold.
Napple Tale got a english translation patch a few months ago.
The biggest flaw with any of these games is that you have to play them with a dreamcast controller!!
Skill issue.
Starlancer should be on this list. I never hear anyone talking about it but its really deep.
I only Played 5 hours of Elemental Gimmick Gear and I already love it (:
I would add Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage
i touched a dreamcast one time in my whole life it's not very common in my country late i played berserk on an emulator and loved it i wish i could try it on the original hardware using the original controller
Loved Sword of the Berserk back in the day. What a game!
The sword swing is way too wide in that game compared to the narrow level design. You end up hitting the wall instead of enemies, which gets annoying fast.
If not for that it would be a pretty good game.
@@ll1844 That's actually one of the defining of the game and the manga, making the use a gigantic sword more realistic instead of turning into a clipping festival as happens in most games that feature giant swords.
Found a copy at GameStop yesterday!
Oh yes definitely Maken X is amazing, I loved this game still do, sadly I don't own a copy of it unfortunately, I hear it's getting a bit pricey to buy and a bit harder to find these days.
Gundam is definately a underrated game once you figure out the controls and death crimson ox is also a hidden gem.
Great suggestion Kitsune!
San Francisco Rush 2049 is another amazing racing game. Excellent 4p battle mode.
Frame Gride, a game with mechs in a fantasy world made by From Software.
Langrisser Millennium, one of the DC games that deserves a translation patch the most.
Blue Stinger, is very good, most the criticism it had was due to the use of a third person camera instead of fixed angles as other survival horrors but it makes the game better than the original version.
Nice choices! Agreed with everything (except EGG. That game is no longer a hidden gem plus a bit overrated.)
It's definitely a hidden gem to UK gamers as it never saw a release in PAL territories. I really rate it personally, a solid 7-8/10 :)
Mentioned EGG and Record of Lodoss War, has my undying respect.👍✌️
Damm I dont know a single one of these games, the dreamcast really passed me by 😞
Thanks for the video though opened my eyes to what I missed
You could add Draconus: Cult of the Wyrm... If you wanted to.
I think we covered it on a previous episode. Draconus is brilliant!
@@thatvideogamesshow Aha! I shall check that out. I suppoes Bangai-O isn't really all that hidden at this time.
Super Runabout and Gundam Side Story looking cool. I'd add Propeller Arena and Half Life to that list, both finished but unreleased worth checking out.

BUT.... you left out the number ONE hidden gem for the Deamcast!! EVIL TWIN- Cyprien's Chronicles! Also, OMIKRON- The Nomad Soul.
Thanks for covering some games that no one talks about...illbreed looks amazing.
No worries! I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
@arbereshe yeah that's the best part. XD
I watched a LP of illbleed a couple of years ago and that's the first time I heard of it, let alone gameplay and man does it rock in a so bad it's good kinda way. XD
That's true hidden gems. Great Video
Record Of Lodoss War and Maken X look sick.
Give them a go man you wont be disappointed!
Didn't like Super Runabout when i first got it but gave it another shot when i got the DC steering wheel, it was like a new game with that.
Ahh I haven’t played it with the wheel, I can imagine the handling being a lot easier to get to grips with whilst using it.
Wow Maken X and Loduss Look great!!!!
Thanks, going to give these gems a play
Glad the video was helpful, have fun with them!
Love the ridge racer 4 into best gaming soundtrack of all time for me
Gundam was awesome, I got the Japanese expansion where you can be a Gundam
My favorite game of them all no if ever anyone don't talk about it enough I love that game as a kid I still do as an adult 200?!!!!!! I had no idea I thought it's release was 1997- 1996
This is the third time I've seen you cover Silver. o_o
Liked just for the choices of bgm
nice list - thanks!
The first two games I had on Dreamcast were Marvel Vs Capcom 2 and Berserk.
dat ridge racer song made my give a instant like :)
All about that soundtrack!
Great titles....godd variety, some racing, platforming and rpg
that Maken X game is essentially first person Z targeting....the game XD
Silver looks pretty nice ! Never heard of it :o
Such a good RPG!
Skies of Arcadia, Headhunter, Blue Stinger, .....
Did anyone play Dragons Blood? No one ever mentions it but it was awesome. Super creepy.
Rainbow cotton is another hidden gem for this console
6:14 wow that looks like Death Stranding!
This console had quite some pottential and its kinda sad that it died out so fast before we could see its true potential released like the ps2
i love the music in your video. any way i could get a track listing?
Somebody really loves RPGs.
Actual hidden gems instead of Skies of Arcadia or Armada on MJRs channel lol
Carrier looks awesome
Well worth it!
Dandys11 I have one with 4 controllers a memeory card for 2 of them and sonic adventure 1&2 house of the dead 3 or 2 E.G.G. and skies of Arcadia all perfect condition with a madcatz extr controller. And aa light gun
Up for sale
How are you managing to play some of these titles on a pal system?
There are a few easy ways these days. multi region boot discs, repro copies, imported NTSC system or GDEMU are the likely options.
R4 had the best music in the series
100% agree
Berserk is a hidden gem also fun game and great story
Does anyone know the name of the song that starts playing at 9:34?
I was thinking Cannon Spike but you must have done it in another Video! 🙄
Was wonderin if gundam side story was wprth playin ngl been enjoyin the fuck out of sonic adveture 2 and marvel v capcom 2
What about Seaman? 🐠
Love me some seaman 😉
you left out the most important game
vf3
Anyone can tell me where to find/download L.O.L? Is driving me crazy.
All this b4 gta crazy taxi shows power
I own makken x
Super Run About Sucks, it looks like a PSX Game that was Bleemcasted.
It WAS a port of a PlayStation game...
That's probably why.They didn't try with that one.

And a flawless execution (still considered the definitive version to date, and was even used as the basis for the 3DS version).
Maken X! I prefer the PS2 remake Maken Shao
Probably the worst list I've ever seen
Too bad its all European title haha
Yeah like the US exclusive E.G.G., that was Europe's bes- wait.
I mean, Illbleed, shame it was only released in the European country of the United Stat- Hold on...
Maybe your brain is a European exclusive, because there's no way you have one with you over there.
