SEGA – We want to bring Dreamcast games to players

August 13th, 2009 Posted in General Nintendo, News, Posted by Austin

In a recent interview, head of SEGA West, Mike Hayes, told Kotaku that SEGA is “very keen” on bringing old Dreamcast games to players this gen.

“I can’t give you any details. Suffice to say, there’s a lot of technical issues, a lot of licensing issues. But we are very keen to bring [them] to players in the way we’ve done with Genesis games. We want to do it, but it’s hard work to get there. Hopefully we can build on that quite soon.” – Mike Hayes

I don’t know about any of you guys, but I loved the Dreamcast and would be immeasurably happy if SEGA was able to bring any of the fantastic games on that system to new gamers. I personally would like to see Rez on the Wii, Jet Grind Radio and Virtua Tennis come to current gen consoles. What about you guys? What Dreamcast games do you want to see ported to newer systems?

    Yes, this is their cue to give us that rumored Shenmue collection and a sequel to Skies of Arcadia. I’ve been buying Sega’s Wii releases so far as I can afford them, and I’ve been enjoying the hell out of Samba de Amigo lately – Dreamcasty goodness.

    I’d love to see some Saturn era games and franchises get new life on the Wii, too. (Not unlike NiGHTS with its sequel.)
