@Ristar24 I never played Panzer Dragoon back in the day. My 16 year old brain just didn't get the point as I was huge into MK and my love for racing games was beginning to blossom. As an adult the remake brought me to the series and I loved it. I've gone on to buy a Saturn and both of the main line games (RPG is just cost prohibitive). I'm honestly curious, what were your issues with the remake? I think I recall it not being well received by everyone but I don't remember why.
@avcrypt these are all valid points that everyone considering this system needs to be fully aware of. Thank you for pointing this out! Video Game Esoterica had a recent video covering this system and discussed this as well
@Daze_of_Reality I'm going to assume that this is probably just because it's already been ported to the Xbox 360 which I dount requires a lot of work to get it working on the Xbox One or Xbox Series. As for why it didn't come to PS4/5 is kind of a good question though considering it was on PS3.
Not saying any of this is wrong. At all. That's a super, super cool shell. But I'm of a different mindset here. I love my stock white DC and plan to keep it that way as long as possible. I love being able to play physical media and light gun games on my CRT. Just my opinion and I know my opinion is just that, my opinion.
To me, while the 32x was certainly a contributing factor to Sega's demise, it absolutely was not the only one. As a hardware manufacturer, Sega died by a thousand paper cuts. Most of them inflicted due to their own mistakes
So take Halo, use Contra-ish assets and sounds and call it Contra in VR. Got it. I say this as someone who considers Contra on the NES to be in their top 5 most favorite games to play,. To this day as a matter of fact I continue to pick it up and play it. I also bought the physical release of Operation Galuga and enjoyed it. This though.... kind of looking meh but it's also not for me because I don't have a VR headset nor do I have any intention of buying one ever.
As with other's here, I'm definitely hoping this results in cartridge releases. I'd love to have physical copies of some old school SNK game. Even though I own an MVS cabinet and a few carts (not such a subtle gloat I guess 🤷), I'd still take any physical SNK love we can get!

Re: Virtua Fighter 2 Is Getting A Physical Release On Xbox
I bought this with zero hesitation. Let's hope Sega or MS doesn't pull some kind of garbage where you need to hop online for ANY reason to play this.
