    Dreamcast recommendations?

    I went to the flea market today for the first time in years and I found some pretty sweet deals, particularly this Dreamcast. I got it for $20, it looked pretty solid, came with a controller, 2 memory cards, one of them having an LCD screen, the A/V and power cables. The vendor even threw in Crazy Taxi since I took it off his hands. The only downside is that the only way I can get it to read any game is if I run it upside down, otherwise it just gets stuck and thinks I don't have a game CD in.

    Anyway I never did own a Dreamcast, I already know Jet Grind Radio is like #1 to play asap so just throw me some other awesome recommendations.

    Also man I have gone through like 6 blank CD-R's trying to burn Jet Grind Radio, I eventually play on buying games but too broke right now, I really just want to give the game a spin. Tired of just playing Crazy Taxi. It probably has to do with the game being and MDF image... no idea wtf to do with that. Not even Disc Juggler wants to touch it.

    TO bad Power Stone II is like 100 bucks used now since its a collectors item.

    I also recommend Marvel vs Capcom 2, probably same price(100ish). Also SOnic Adventure solely to raise your own chow chow.

    Rival Schools 2

    Power Stone

    Skies of Arcadia

    House of The Dead ( if you got the gun)

    Marvel vs Capcom 2 ( if you Don't have it on 360 / PS3)

    Street Fighter 3 and Alpha 3

    Garou: Mark of the wolves

    Grandia 2

    Rez

    There is alot more but I cannot remember them.

    As for Jet Grind, Does it not burn at all or not boot up? Try a trial of Alcohol 120%. If it just doesn't boot up some games need the Utopia Boot disk.

    I tried many diff ways to burn it but no luck. I also tried with boot disc, one of the many attempted discs I have almost loads up, a percentage sign shows up and starts loading but then goes to a black screen and gets stuck. Is that a good sign if a percent symbol shows?

    Skies of Arcadia is my favorite, some of the lesser known ones that are decent include Blue Stinger, Draconus, Maken X, Typing of the Dead, and Super Magnetic Neo

    Phantasy Star Online is kind of fun to play... offline. Also, Virtua Tennis is kickass.

    You made a damn fine purchase, I'd kill to find another DC at that price, I'll just stick to emulating it for now.

    I've never had a problem using BootDreams to burn Dreamcast games, but I have had problems with Nero and shit. Just make sure all ISO's are selfboot.

    I was totally going to say this. Get Seaman, as narrated by leonard nimoy. And make sure it has the mic.

    Fur Fighters? rofl.. def have to see that to believe it.

    I have always wanted to play the Shuemue series.

    See what I did there?

    OH for some reason I can't get Ikaruga to run, I used Alcohol 120% too. It was about the only game that hasn't worked, not even with Utopia Boot. So far I have:

    Jet Grind Radio
    Resident Evil 2, 3, CV
    Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 (fucking classic, I can't believe they ported this)
    Marvel Vs Capcom 2
    Capcom Vs SNK 2
    Street Fighter III 3rd Strike
    Skies of Arcadia
    Grandia 2
    Mortal Kombat Trilogy
    Elemental Gimmick Gear (which I hear is like some hardcore version of Zelda)

    I'll sell you an original Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for less than whatever going rate is on Ebay.
