Deciding to make this thread so I can stop posting random stuff in the Recent Acquisitions thread.
The Dreamcast is my second favorite system behind the Gamecube. The system recently had it's 25th anniversary (NA). Been extra motivated into picking up more games for the system to round out my already pretty sizable collection of games. I feel like a big reason my DC library isn't larger than it currently is, is because NO ONE SELLS DC GAMES. And if they do, it's only the most commonly known titles and the 2K sports games. Local store has imports, so that's nice. What I find odd about the lack of DC games is that there are still a surprisingly amount that are still cheap-ish games, but like Gamecube and Wii U games, it seems stores seem to consistently have a small collection of games available for sale. Makes eBay the only viable option. Conventions don't come around often. Swap meets don't seem to be a thing here.
I've recently modded my system to have a quieter fan (system is super quiet now) and replaceable battery. Also have a GOOD HDMI adapter which takes the VGA signal and converts it to HDMI without any imput lag, change in resolution scaling, or change in colors and contrast. I've got the official Keyboard, Mouse, and Arcade stick. Arcade stick's buttons kinda suck, unfortunately. Lots of fighting games, but no good controller to play on them (was never good with D-pads on fighting games). Might need to get a Bluetooth adapter and see if I can use my 8Bit-Do arcade stick I bought for my Switch.
Here is my current collection of games.
Games I'm looking out for (* notates low priority game due to having on another system):
Still looking out for games not on the list. Be easier if there were more DC games in stores instead of searching YT for "Dreamcast Hidden Gems." I'd also like to have English copies of the MvC and Power Stone games, but they're not priced realistically.

MDK 2
Power Stone 2 - This is going to be part of the Capcom Fighting Collection 2
Project Justice - This is going to be part of the Capcom Fighting Collection 2
