This is a subject i have some interest in, especailly as there are some decent DC titles like Dux released and many more in the works. I love to see new life breathed into old systems. I do prefer to buy these types of games if at a good price rather tahn new titles as they usually bring back fond memories of gamings golden era.

I've bought both Last Hope and DUX for the Dreamcast new on release.  It's great to see people developing software for "dead" systems.

 

The Atari Jaguar is another system where lesser known developers get a chance to show what they can do.

 

I'm all for it and would love to contribute some music to a project one day...

I have Dux and the (rather amazing) Wind & Water: Puzzle Battles. I have a list of DC/MCD.NGCD shooters im looking for (Last Hope is one) but prices can be a bit of an issue.

Last Hope on the DC is great but tough.  There's a new "Pink Bullets" version which is supposed to be more forgiving.  I like DUX but not as much as Last Hope.

 

Fast Striker has just been released for the Neo Geo MVS and Dremacast in 2011.  Amazing that people are still developing for the Neo especially.

Yep, the DC has got some great third party games coming up:

 

Sturmwind looks like a great side scrolling shooter. Apparently it started life as Native for the JagCD but has been resurrected for Sega's more successful platform. Ace!

 

Gunlord looks like a Turrican 2 style platform shooter. Right up my street.
