Capcom might have had the best run on Dreamcast. Sega's first party efforts were brilliant but Cacpom was right there with it. For me what would put Capcom over the top is my favorite Dreamcast game Resident Evil: Code Veronica.
Capcom owned the Dreamcast! It was their platform, Sega was just along for the ride. Spectacular work Mr. X! One of your most accomplished series yet. Tremendous!
Yup. May only have been on the market about 2 years but it was an awesome 2 years. Reminded me of the Genesis glory days in terms of the quality games that were put out on a very consistent basis.
The dreamcast is a system that I have bought over and over due to me burning it out from playing with my friends. My favorite fighting games that we played were: 1. Rival Schools 2: Project Justice 2. Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New age of heroes 3. Dead or Alive 2 4. SoulCalibur 5. Capcom vs snk 2 These videos have reminded me I need to invest in a new dreamcast lol.
Man the Capcom Sega marriage on the Dreamcast was the best thing ever for this fanboy of both companies. I only wish Shinobi and Devil may cry were released on the Dreamcast.
Why? i mean why would you those were released on the dreamcast, when they were developed for the ps2. Nes fan boys wish that link to the past was released for the nes instead? that would be a whole diffrent game. Idk why fanboys care so much about that but not to enjoy the game themself. I wish Gta5 was released for psx because i love that console, T_T
@@kefkahkefkah Because unlike your examples the Dreamcast and the PlayStation 2 were contemporaries with similar hardware capabilities. The OP even named very early PlayStation 2 titles that overlapped with the Dreamcast's late lifespan. They could have been released in near-identical form across both platforms just like Rez, Space Channel 5: Part 2, Puyo Puyo Fever... even Kidou Senshi Gundam: Renpou vs. Zeon & DX from this very video. You're sitting here making fun of the OP, but what they said is nothing like thinking Starfox should have been on NES or Final Fantasy XV should have been on the Saturn or whatever. I agree that at this point it's all just spilled milk and nothing to stay upset over, but these games would have been near-identical on the Dreamcast, and it was only market conditions that kept it from happening.
@@eddytowers For the Gundam game, sure, but El Dorado Gate wasn't a Naomi conversion and that series was seeing releases on Dreamcast after Devil May Cry was released for PlayStation 2. As for Sega games, high-profile releases like Rez, Space Channel 5: Part 2, and Sakura Taisen 4 weren't Naomi conversions either. I'm not saying it's unbelievable they didn't make it to the Dreamcast, I'm just saying that thinking it would have been nice if they had like the OP was saying isn't nearly as ridiculous as that one response made it out to be. No crazier than Capcom putting Street Fighter Zero 3, Dungeons & Dragons Collection, and Final Fight Revenge out on Saturn way after the Dreamcast had been released.
Surprising just how commited Capcom was to SEGA Back then. Puts every other third partiy companies to shame. So glad I got Capcom vs SNK pro when I went to japan in 2002
Thank you Sega Lord X for making this a Phenomenal Friday with this upload! The Dreamcast truly has many amazing Capcom gems that run near flawlessly on the system!
Oh, man! Project Justice was one of my absolute favourites on the Dreamcast. Probably my favourite 3D fighter ever, now that I think about it (if Powerstone 2 is more of an...arena fighter?). Speaking of which...it's super under-appreciated! I've always wanted to see it get more acknowledgement, and I think the only Capcom crossover fighter that had any characters from Rival Schools or Project Justice was Capcom vs. SNK 2!
Thank you SO MUCH for this wonderful retrospective on the amazing Capcom library for the DC. What a time it was to be a gamer during the DC era. It cemented a legacy in a mere two years that the competition could only hope to aside to in double the time. 9-9-99: Never Forget.
Great video, but it made me sad to remember when I found out Capcom vs Snk 2 wasn't coming to the Dreamcast in the US and at the time I don't think the PS2 version was a lock. I want to say I found out around same time I learned Shenmue 2 wasn't coming here as well. I got the Euro copy of Shenmue 2 for DC, ended up begrudgingly getting CVS 2 for PS2, it still hurts ........🥺
Mobile Gundam: Federation vs Zeon DX got a slightly improved US release on PS2. The only real "upgrade" is slightly (and I mean slightly) improved graphics on some stages over the original PS2 and Dreamcast JP release. I had no idea the DC version got PS2 crossplay. That's just awesome! It also has a "campaign" mode on the Western PS2 release that I totally forgot about, although it doesn't really add much.
@arbereshe The USA PS2 version? If you mean that then yeah, it plays and runs fine. However, some of the new Western voice samples are bloody awful lol. I prefer it on the Dreamcast tbh.
@arbereshe far from it, I have a ton of Gundam games and yes there are some awful ones, but theirs some real gems for fans with most of the games. The Gundam vs series is probably one the best long running Gundam series of games. If anything only the PS4 Gundam game was a bit of miss for me, all the rest are awesome, I'd also recommend Gundam vs Zeta Gundam for the PS2, it has everything Fed vs Zeon had and so much more.
The ps2 version also got allowed you to play as some mobile armors and had a campaign mode that was missing from the DC version, so it's a fair upgrade in my opinion. That said, the dreamcast version is still awesome.
@@alritedave Yeah it's not much, but it's a nice extra. Plus, the DC version's graphics look much nicer than the ps2's if you have VGA, so unless somebody's dead-set on piloting a big zam or something then I'd say the DC version is probably better.
Great series! Fun to check out some games I missed back when I had the Dreamcast when it first came out. I knew about RE: Code Veronica when it first came out on DC. Classic game!
I had never even heard of a few of these games before, which is saying a lot considering the amount of retro content I consume. That's why I love Sega Lord X videos. You get to see a detailed breakdown of games that are never on the mainstream radar.
I totally agree with you. Capcom released a lot of games on the Dreamcast in such a short time. They were all hits in their own rights, too. Some bigger than others, and no real misses in the library. Some of those arcade ports were better on the Dreamcast than their original CPS2/ CPS3 hardware. The Dreamcast was perfect for arcade style gaming, 2D or 3D. Kind of like a 6th generation version of the PCE when compared to the PS2, Xbox and GameCube. I have a suggestion for Midway on the Dreamcast. They actually released a lot of arcade styled games too for the system.
A great video from an informative series. Excellent work as per usual and I thank you for taking the time to do this. I've sunk many an hour into watching your content and I've discovered a game or two that I'd never even heard of, let alone played. Respect is due, sir. 👍
Thanks for reminding me of Bounty Hunter Sarah's existence that has been consigned to the deepest memory trove of my childhood. I didn't even own that game nor did I ever mean to do so, I just skimmed an ad/article on the title in one of the several Dreamcast magazines still thriving back in the day (well, at least in Japan). And even as an impressionable tween I smirked at how absolutely cheesy it was. But after 20 years it looks strangely endearing.
Well that was a fabulous little mini series. Thanks so much for putting that together. I'm ever so slowly starting to collect for the DC and these videos are gonna help me out big time with stuff from just Capcom alone. Cheers brother.
The El Dorado Gate RPG looks awesome! I'd love to give it a swing some time. It really blows my mind how Capcom kept so many stellar releases coming one after another despite the Dreamcast's tragically short life. I've said it before, and I stand by it: in the late 90s and early 2000s, Capcom was beyond legendary, they were untouchable
I so regret clicking this, because it's so good!!! Now i want to dust off my Dreamcast and go game hunting!!! Thanks good sir! Great video and great series.
I can't emphasize how much I love Project Justice. I got it day one with saved up money after school and have fond memories of staying up late in the summertime and beyond playing it by myself and with friends. I have little hope that Capcom would make a new Rival Schools game but I do wish they ported it officially to Steam to play it again. Maybe someday since SF6 is selling great since they put out that Capcom Fighting Collection with arcade classics...... I mostly just miss playing it.
Hah I sorta called it in a previous video, and here it is; Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo really plays great on the DC and turbo 0 really makes it feel silky smooth. Too bad it has the same unfair AI that most ports of this game do in Arcade mode (if you go through some hoops to set 2P as the CPU using a secret menu and play versus mode instead, you get a fair difficulty though). Also worth noting is that from what I can tell, the Saturn port of Super Turbo doesn't have a cheating AI; it plays similarly to the AI in Super Street Fighter.
Federation vs Zeon along with Gundam 0079: Rise from the Ashes really scratched my itch for good mech games on the Dreamcast. Despite its short life span, it really was a system that had something for all tastes. The Dreamcast was also a great system for people who wanted to dip their toes into imports, without breaking the bank. Thanks to whoever came up with the boot disc, all you needed to try out a $80+S&H game was a blank CD-R and some patience.
Another great video man! Project Justice was a fixture in my house! Fantastic game. I still fire it up every once in awhile just to stroll down memory lane. Graphics still hold up today too! "BUTTERFLY!!!" When Capcom Vs SNK finally hit our shore's it practically lived in our Dreamcast. So awesome to see those iconic characters from so many great games going head to head. Love that building site stage, how it gradually falls to pieces as the rounds transpire! Still makes me laugh seeing the foreman go mad as the beams come tumbling down! Haha Love to see a new Capcom Vs SNK. Imagine Street Fighter V and/or Samurai Shodown remakes graphics!
Fantastic games!! I loved the 3 parts about capcom and dreamcast Eldorado gate deserved a translation, it's a beautiful game, I really wish I could play it, but in Japanese it's very difficult
Didn’t knew Capcom made a Gundam IP?! :O. It aged very well, it uses kind of the same mechanics that Koei Tecmo was using with the Dynasty Warriors series.
Gun/cannon spike is a great game, I think that Psikyo were devleoping their own style on the saturn/ps1 era and during the dreamcast era they finally had their own unique style for shoot em ups. Pity they went out of buisness, they're one of my favourite developers and I've got a lot of great memories with their games, especially saturn ones. 4 player for gigawing 2 is amazing, it's the best part of the game to me. It's a lot easier but still very fun. Only shoot em up I know that's for 2+ players. You're the first person I've seen use Ralugo in gigawing 2 by the way.
There was a modified port of Capcom Vs SNK 2 for the OG Xbox, ps2 and NGC called Capcom vs SNK 2: EO in North America that added a new “easy operation” control scheme and 4 more characters. I have played the DC original and the EO version on Xbox and NGC and they all play fabulously. In fact the entire Japanese version of the game is included on the Xbox “exhibition 2.0” “demo” disc
I'm a fairly new subscriber to your channel and just wanted to say how much I'm enjoying your content. Everything I've watched so far has been excellent. You clearly put a lot of effort into researching the subject for each video and it shows. 10/10 👍🏻
Oh shit, Federation vs. Zeon was on the Dreamcast? I played the PS2 version and had no idea Capcom was behind it. It's one of the best Gundam games along with AEUG vs Titans and Gundam Battle Universe on the PSP.
I never knew Gundam federation vs zeon was a Dreamcast game!!! I played it on the ps2. The Dreamcast looks sharper because of the 8mb video ram. Ps2 only had 4mb and it was blurry!!!
That Gundam game by Capcom is the only one I had no idea about. I'm not a fan of Gundam but I love Mecha anime and Capcom so I might try to play it one of these days.
MSG: Federation Vs Zeon is a fun and challenging game. Tons of nostalgia for any UC Gundam fans. The music feels kind of cheesy at first, but after a while you really feel like you're in the One Year War! I got it on PS2 too so I could play the story mode. It's cheap on PS2, but I do think it's smoother and more colorful on the Dreamcast. 2019 marked Gundam's 40th anniversary making it a great time to play it.
Gaia Master is pretty interesting. Discovered it while putting together my gdemu and seeing it was published by capcom. Wouldn't say it's import friendly but it's cool to see all those capcom arcade trademarks in a board game.
I got the same Virtual On vibe from Heavy Metal, specifically when the one character starts using that laser sword. It was a second or two before you said the same thing, so it's a strong resemblance, it seems. I don't recall Capcom's Gundam game, and it looks like the kind of game I'd like. I had the other Gundam game that was more of a Mechwarrior style mech sim. Cannon Spike might have also interested me at the time, but I don't recall hearing or seeing much about it. I'm surprised to hear how much praise you have for the backgrounds in Capcom vs. SNK 2. Not that I assumed we'd have the same opinion. And I don't have any problem with your take -- it's just opinions. It's just that we're on the opposite ends of the spectrum here. I really disliked Capcom's 3D stages in general. I always found they incorporated too much motion and many gimmicks that took away from the action. That desert rally stage is one of my least favorite backgrounds in any fighting game. But that's just me, and my opinion is no more valid than yours on that. We also agree on many other things. I definitely prefer 2D backgrounds in general. Regardless, this was an interesting series and I learned about some games that slipped by me. And excellent work as usual.
LOL Poor Steve, everyone hates on him, I always thought what happened to him was messed up, damn you Wesker! Capcom really killed it for the Dreamcast, I don't think any developer has had that same kind of run or impact on any gaming device since then, it's not something we will see again I think. The Dreamcast really was Capcom home back then.
Soon as he mentioned the rarity of Super Street Fighter 2 X I went to ebay right away to check prices, most in the 300 range unless sealed. I thought it would be Panzer Dragoon Saga price ranges in the thousands. Guess I better hold on to my copy for a while
What's funny about looking back that them today is most newer gamers only about The Dreamcast whole the homebrew market and the Mil-CD Loop Hole. But since it's mostly foregone an video on The Sega Channel wound be nice since what it did cnaged the world; Broadband Internet, The Weather Channel, and Video on Demand was just an few of the things that wasn't possible before it came out. I had to put The Weather Channel in their since the local on the 8s thing needed the information to be added to the video feed by the cable company.
Because of this video I’m going to play Super Puzzle 🧩 Fighter X again because I have the Japanese version and I was unaware of their different modes especially the Y mode. I thought they were all the same.
Man I played Project Justice for the first time about 2 weeks ago and it instantly cracked my top 10. I just love the characters and presentation, and it's backed up with really excellent mechanics. Now if only I weren't a total FG scrub lol
Another great video, Capcom really put out all the stops for the Dreamcast! I have the Japanese version of Project Justice, good fighter! I finally managed to get the Japanese version of Cannon Spike, good game though I would love an updated version with twin stick controls! I know the Dreamcast port of Super Street Fighter 2X s considered the best but the price is hard to swallow but maybe eventually! Really like Gigawing 2 and getting a 1CC will take some practice but it's not that difficult and really like the music! Is Code: Veronica X fully in english! I should get Capcom VS SNK Pro! I should give the super puzzle fighter series a try! Heavy Metal Geomatrix looks fun! I need to get Capcom VS SNK 2! Mobile Suit Gundam looks like fun!
Capcom vs snk 2 not coming to north America was a real a shame. i never understood why they had skip the ntsc version for the dc when it was going to be released on ps2 without the matching services anyway. Like MVSC 2, it would have helped to sell a little bit more dreamcast in my opinion. Ho, and I must admit that this ufc game was for real waaaay ahead of its time, a real ufc simulator ahead of its time with amazing graphic and fighting system, for real it was amazing!
So many of these are still sitting on my shelf. They still bring joy when played and often are so much better than games available today.
Retro can't be beaten sometimes, pure fun was put into these games, not the cold cash cows most games have become today.
Capcom might have had the best run on Dreamcast. Sega's first party efforts were brilliant but Cacpom was right there with it. For me what would put Capcom over the top is my favorite Dreamcast game Resident Evil: Code Veronica.
Its definitely a system for classic Capcom fans, for sure!
All hail vode Veronica lol
Capcom owned the Dreamcast! It was their platform, Sega was just along for the ride. Spectacular work Mr. X! One of your most accomplished series yet. Tremendous!
Here we go again another history lesson on the greatness that was and still is the Dreamcast!
I just got a Dreamcast BBA adapter! :D
Yup. May only have been on the market about 2 years but it was an awesome 2 years. Reminded me of the Genesis glory days in terms of the quality games that were put out on a very consistent basis.
The dreamcast is a system that I have bought over and over due to me burning it out from playing with my friends. My favorite fighting games that we played were:
1. Rival Schools 2: Project Justice
2. Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New age of heroes
3. Dead or Alive 2
4. SoulCalibur
5. Capcom vs snk 2
These videos have reminded me I need to invest in a new dreamcast lol.
My goodness, the hours I spent on Project Justice!! Can't believe they never made another.
Man the Capcom Sega marriage on the Dreamcast was the best thing ever for this fanboy of both companies. I only wish Shinobi and Devil may cry were released on the Dreamcast.
Damn, Shinobi would've been nice for the Dreamcast library along with Castlevania Lament of Innocence or the cancelled game
Why? i mean why would you those were released on the dreamcast, when they were developed for the ps2. Nes fan boys wish that link to the past was released for the nes instead? that would be a whole diffrent game.

That Gundam game by Capcom is the only one I had no idea about. I'm not a fan of Gundam but I love Mecha anime and Capcom so I might try to play it one of these days.
This has been such a great series! I love your work, and this is a prime example of it!
Capcom vs SNK 2 looks sick
Spawn was dope
MSG: Federation Vs Zeon is a fun and challenging game. Tons of nostalgia for any UC Gundam fans. The music feels kind of cheesy at first, but after a while you really feel like you're in the One Year War! I got it on PS2 too so I could play the story mode. It's cheap on PS2, but I do think it's smoother and more colorful on the Dreamcast. 2019 marked Gundam's 40th anniversary making it a great time to play it.
Gaia Master is pretty interesting. Discovered it while putting together my gdemu and seeing it was published by capcom. Wouldn't say it's import friendly but it's cool to see all those capcom arcade trademarks in a board game.
I got the same Virtual On vibe from Heavy Metal, specifically when the one character starts using that laser sword. It was a second or two before you said the same thing, so it's a strong resemblance, it seems.
I don't recall Capcom's Gundam game, and it looks like the kind of game I'd like. I had the other Gundam game that was more of a Mechwarrior style mech sim. Cannon Spike might have also interested me at the time, but I don't recall hearing or seeing much about it.
I'm surprised to hear how much praise you have for the backgrounds in Capcom vs. SNK 2. Not that I assumed we'd have the same opinion. And I don't have any problem with your take -- it's just opinions. It's just that we're on the opposite ends of the spectrum here. I really disliked Capcom's 3D stages in general. I always found they incorporated too much motion and many gimmicks that took away from the action. That desert rally stage is one of my least favorite backgrounds in any fighting game. But that's just me, and my opinion is no more valid than yours on that. We also agree on many other things. I definitely prefer 2D backgrounds in general.
Regardless, this was an interesting series and I learned about some games that slipped by me. And excellent work as usual.
Sega Lord X = Quality content and lots of it. Thanks!
I can very much see where games like Heavy Metal influenced future Capcom developed titles like Gotcha Force on the GameCube.
I have an original copy of street Fighter II X 2X. Had no idea it was selling for so much. My collection is worth a few bit for sure.
Stellar series of videos, as usual. Thanks for always highlighting obscure Japanese titles, it's always interesting.
Makes me want to buy a modded dreamcast
LOL Poor Steve, everyone hates on him, I always thought what happened to him was messed up, damn you Wesker! Capcom really killed it for the Dreamcast, I don't think any developer has had that same kind of run or impact on any gaming device since then, it's not something we will see again I think. The Dreamcast really was Capcom home back then.
Soon as he mentioned the rarity of Super Street Fighter 2 X I went to ebay right away to check prices, most in the 300 range unless sealed. I thought it would be Panzer Dragoon Saga price ranges in the thousands. Guess I better hold on to my copy for a while
Great final thoughts and closing statements.
Project justice/Rival School's.👍
8:53 Oh my Gosh!....................Dude! O_O
16:46😲
Nice informative documentary dude!👍
What’s cool about heavy metal geo matrix you can play co-op in arcade mode for more fun
Very good the Sega dreamcast 👍
What's funny about looking back that them today is most newer gamers only about The Dreamcast whole the homebrew market and the Mil-CD Loop Hole. But since it's mostly foregone an video on The Sega Channel wound be nice since what it did cnaged the world; Broadband Internet, The Weather Channel, and Video on Demand was just an few of the things that wasn't possible before it came out. I had to put The Weather Channel in their since the local on the 8s thing needed the information to be added to the video feed by the cable company.
I remember borrowing my friend’s Dreamcast just to play Code Veronica.
Dude you videos are amazing!! TOPNOTCH quality!
Because of this video I’m going to play Super Puzzle 🧩 Fighter X again because I have the Japanese version and I was unaware of their different modes especially the Y mode. I thought they were all the same.
Man I played Project Justice for the first time about 2 weeks ago and it instantly cracked my top 10. I just love the characters and presentation, and it's backed up with really excellent mechanics. Now if only I weren't a total FG scrub lol
Today with dual analog stick controllers a game like Spawn would be awesome.
Great series! Thank you, Sega Lord x!
Fantastic series of vids. Excellent stuff.
"Jump jets"
Wat
Sorry, that took me aback. Gundam fan here and I played the PS2 version. Never realized how different this version looked
Cannon Spike = $100+ on aftermarket glad I have my original copy for the Dreamcast.
Another great video, Capcom really put out all the stops for the Dreamcast! I have the Japanese version of Project Justice, good fighter! I finally managed to get the Japanese version of Cannon Spike, good game though I would love an updated version with twin stick controls! I know the Dreamcast port of Super Street Fighter 2X s considered the best but the price is hard to swallow but maybe eventually! Really like Gigawing 2 and getting a 1CC will take some practice but it's not that difficult and really like the music! Is Code: Veronica X fully in english! I should get Capcom VS SNK Pro! I should give the super puzzle fighter series a try! Heavy Metal Geomatrix looks fun! I need to get Capcom VS SNK 2! Mobile Suit Gundam looks like fun!
I loved all 3! Great videos man.
Crossplay with the PLAYSTATION 2! THAT IS AMAZING!! Sega was the greatest!
It was Capcom that did all the work there. Sega just allowed them to do it.
Hmm crossplay huh? maybe that can be restored would be good to fight on CvsS2 online
Great way to end the week bro.Love you videos.
Crazy to think back then Capcom did the idea of cross playing online with competitor system's
Gundam Side Story 0079: Rise from the Ashes is another great Gundam Game for the Dreamcast
My favorite is Gihren's Ambition.
As good as always !! Your vidéos are really good, it's really interesting . Keep doing good videos and happy New year !
I sometimes jokingly call my Dreamcast my Capcom system due to my library being 90% of Capcom titles.
You bang out so much content!
Now I'm on the hunt
Hey man. I haven't been getting notifications for this channel.
I really like your videos. U sure know ur games. Great work!
Capcom vs snk 2 not coming to north America was a real a shame. i never understood why they had skip the ntsc version for the dc when it was going to be released on ps2 without the matching services anyway. Like MVSC 2, it would have helped to sell a little bit more dreamcast in my opinion.
Ho, and I must admit that this ufc game was for real waaaay ahead of its time, a real ufc simulator ahead of its time with amazing graphic and fighting system, for real it was amazing!
