NAOMI software exclusives
Posted: Tue Jun 28, 2011 1:28 pm
Hi all, I've just recently got myself a NAOMI 2 motherboard and have been slowly piecing together all the bits and bobs I need to make it work, but it's coming together nicely.
I'm thinking ahead to the kinds of games that I need to pick up once I've got it working So far I have:
Senko no Ronde
Senko no Ronde New Ver (Rev A)
Psyvariar 2: The will to fabricate (already have on Dreamcast, but got it cheap)
Radirgy Noa/Radilgy Noir
Exzeal / Shooting Love 2007 (<3 This is basically what I bought a NAOMI for - I was a big fan of Trizeal <3)
But what else should be on my wish list? I have an extensive and near complete Dreamcast collection, so I'm mostly interested in stuff that never got a Dreamcast port. This is what I've researched so far:
Dead or Alive 2 Millennium - Is this any different to the Dreamcast port?
Dynamite Deka EX: Asian Dynamite - A must buy
Illmatic Envelope (aka Illvelo) - I love my shmups, although this hasn't appeared to have really entered the 2nd hand market yet
Melty Blood: Act Cadenza
Melty Blood: Act Cadenza Ver B - I should be right to just get Ver B, there's no real reason to get Ver A, right?
Melty Blood: Actress Again - And this is too new to find on the second hand market.
Sega Strike Fighter - Unfortunately, I think I need an analogue yoke stick for this one, which may prove difficult. Is it any good?
Azumanga Daioh Puzzle Bobble - A must buy, but I hear rare and expensive?
Guilty Gear XX: The Midnight Carnival
Guilty Gear XX#Reload
Guilty Gear XX Slash
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core - now these confuse me a little, it seems like there is little difference between the original X2 and #Reload, but the last 3 are sufficiently different to almost be sequels, correct?
Jingi Storm - a mediocre fighter but with strippers
Kuru Kuru Khameleon - A puzzler that sounds interesting, but perhaps too new and pricey at the moment
Lupin - The shooting
Lupin - The typing - these sound awesome, but require specialist control (gun/keyboard) and I don't think I'm enough of a Jamma/JVS whiz to make them myself
Senko no ronde SP - Do want but currently selling for $1500 new ._.
Tetris Kiwamemichi - Every system needs a copy of tetris
Virtua Fighter 4
Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution
Virtua Fighter 4 Final Tuned - definitely need Final Tuned, but have also read that the stages were different in Evolution from the original, so if the stages in FT are the same as in Evo, I'm thinking of getting the original as well as FT. Can anyone clear this up for me?
Initial D
Initial D Stage 2
Initial D Version 3 - It would be nice to get these, but I'm not sure I can construct a steering wheel and pedals interface. I'd sure like to give it a go though
Spikers Battle
Slashout - These sound interesting, sort of spiritual successors to Streets of Rage and Golden Axe?
Anything else important that I've missed?
Also, were there any Dreamcast/other ports that weren't perfect or different enough to warrant purchasing the NAOMI version. For instance, I have Beach Spikers on gamecube, so is it worth getting the NAOMI ver?
