Honestly, wouldnt it have been awesome to have had that?
Think about it, the Dremcast had a little screen on it (the VMU), that almost feel is like a little inspiration-nod to the Wii-Us concept of one screen in the hand (though its more likely to be inspired of the DS maybe). I know, it didnt do much, but what it did was nice (like showing your health-conditions in the RE-games,Signaled to player that a Cham was nearby in Skies of Arcadia and small mini-games.)

So do we want to see Dreamcast-games on Nintendo's E-shop, perhaps with more additional content (or more uses with the pad), re-released as greatest hits or what?=)
Let me know^^

Hey, GameGear was on the 3DS, so why not? It had a great library also, so hopefully Dreamcast gets revived onto the Wii U!

It's a fail for not having this happened. Just like it's a fail for having virtually no online multiplayer, but that's for another thread.

It'd depend on what would be released. I could do without another incomplete Crazy Taxi. Or Sega Bass Fishing.

But if we're talking about region specific releases made elsewhere (translated Segagaga and Toy Racer, I'm looking at you), I'd drop some cash. Oh yeah, and the Lost Golem too.

As long as we get Sega CD, Saturn, and 32X as well.

We need all the retro systems! (Still hoping for Amiga)

the dreamcast is one of my favourite consoles as it had a terrific library of games, so yes of course. it would be great if we could get almost every great game that was released for it on the wii U V.C.

I'm hoping for this, just for the chance at getting Street Fighter III: Double Impact, as it's the only console release of Street Fighter III: New Generation & 2nd Impact. I played NG at the arcade, but never 2nd Impact! Surprising that ,with Capcom's tendancy to repeatedly release Street Fighter II, Street Fighter III was so greatly ignored (especially after the whole "Capcom can't count to three" thing, LOL).

i prefer streetfighter 3 over the second one. in fact, streetfighter 3: third strike is my favourite entry in the streetfighter series.

Definitely this. Some really good GameCube games are really pricey to buy. Even though I have my launch Wii and GameCube to play the games they are just a lot of $$$

Still got my Dreamcast. It's got some gems on it that would be nice to have on the Wii U for those who want to experience them.

I'm sure it's possible since I know there are some DC games on XBLA. Can't speak for other systems.

Marvel VS Capcom 2 for the Dreamcast is all I need.
