Double Dreamcast Tuesday: SEGA Bass Fishing & Space Channel 5 Part 2

Space Channel 5 Part 2 will be boogieing into the PlayStation Store later on today along with SEGA Bass Fishing – can you say Double Dreamcast Tuesday? Pick up either one for a smooth $10 each. Man, that’s refreshing.

SEGA Bass Fishing has been an arcade favorite for years, gobbling up quarters since 1998 here in the US. Bass Fishing then caused quite a splash when it launched with the Dreamcast on 9/9/99 – a day very dear to all of us Dreamcast fans.

In terms of gameplay, Bass Fishing is surprisingly easy to pick up and get into, and it keeps you coming back for more with layers of depth added by the different fishing conditions and locations. Cast out in 8 different locations and lure in the biggest, baddest bass. Want to look like a pro? Use your Move controller! If you’re fishing in the morning try a surface lure. If you’re fishing in the middle of the day, use a heavier lure to drop down to the cooler waters and pick up the prize bass you’ve been huntin’. The biggest one I’ve caught is 33lbs – can you beat me?

Last but not least I thoroughly recommend playing Bass Fishing while blasting my favorite song: “I’m on a boat, I’m on a boat, everybody look at me coz I’m sailing on a boat…”

What is Space Channel 5 exactly? Excellent question. It’s a rhythm action dancing game. Throughout the game you encounter “Dance Offs”, where your challenger will spit a bunch of moves at you, and it’s up to you to show that you’re not going to be one-upped, out-fancied and out-swaggered. Get your timing right to free the hostages, shoot robots, and generally show off your killer dance moves.

Space Channel 5 Part 2 never made it over to the US for its original Dreamcast release, instead it was first playable on the PlayStation 2 as part of a bundle with the original Space Channel 5 game. Today you can grab it with HD graphics, full 16:9 support, a 2 player co-op mode, and a substantial cameo appearance from the late King of Pop himself – Space Michael.

We here at SEGA have a special soft spot in our hearts for Dreamcast games, and we know there are a lot of Dreamcast fans out there who’d love to get their hands on some of those other Dreamcast gems. Tell all of your friends about Space Channel 5 and SEGA Bass Fishing, and we’ll do our best to get some of those other gems out for ya as soon as possible.

  • I would love to get Sonic Adventures 2 on the Playstation 3, I remember spending days raising my chaos on the Dreamcast version of the game.

  • Any chance of seeing more original SEGA titles like ToeJam & Earl or Beavis and Butthead? I still remember playing those games when I was much, much younger.

  • It’s official, people want Shenmue 1 & 2 on Ps3! make it happen, sony.

  • I love the dreamcast! let’s have all of their games on psn!

  • I really want to see Sonic Adventure 2 on PSN. Reason: I missed it on Dreamcast. :(

  • I hope that SEGA continues doing this stuff. Loved playing Sonic Adventure again (and earning a few trophies too!). I’ve never played Space Channel 5, so I’ll def give this a go! SEGA should definitely do Sonic Adventure 2 and a few other DreamCast games, I mean, it’s a great way to get some extra cash, and a great way for fans to re-play some fun games of the past! DreamCasts aren’t all that readily available, so this is a great way to market some games some fans may not have had the chance to play.

  • Do the dreamcast games appear in a specialized Dreamcast folder? Similar to how PS1/PSP/PS3 games appear in their own folders?

  • Does Space Channel 2 have trophies? I´d love to see Jet Set Radio and Shenmue on the PS store!

  • Yes, I also need an answer on trophies. I’ll probably pick up SC5 anyway, but it would be really nice if they had trophies like the Genesis games on the PSN.

  • Jet Set Radio, Shenmue, Dynamite Cop, and Zombie Revenge from the DC.

    Panzer Dragoon (Zwei), Burning Rangers and NiGHTS from the Saturn.

    I would love to see a Virtua Cop/Confidential mission pack for the ps3 and a complete House of the Dead collection (1-4).

    Oh, and just to put this out there…Cosmic Smash, SEGAGAGA, Propeller Arena, and Sega Race TV

  • I’m the biggest Ulala fan, but as far as I can tell from the vids, it looks nothing like a HD remastering. It looks more like the original 640×480 Dreamcast version upscaled and letterboxed in widescreen. In which case I prefer firing up my trusty DC which is exactly half a meter away from my keyboard.

    Cool. Can’t wait to replay Shenmue on my PS3!

  • This is awesome! I might be picking up Space Channel 5. You guys should also bring over…

    Shenmue 1 and 2
    Sonic Adventure 2
    Skies of Arcadia
    Omikron: The Nomad Soul
    Headhunter
    Grandia II
    Stupid Invaders
    Evolution: The World of Sacred Device
    Evolution 2: Far Off Promise
    Dead Or Alive 2
    and Soul Caliber.

    I would buy them all and you would have my money. :)

  • I’ve suggested many Saturn games be released on PSN….. check out my ideas in the suggest section (if it even still exists.)

    Wheres the Sega Saturn love?

    (one of the best and most durable consoles ever made!)

    Plug in a saturn 100 years from now, and it’ll work. no system updates required :)

  • House of the Dead w/ Move support….. Burning Rangers…… Panzer Dragoon Series…..including Saga

    i would say Radiant Silvergun, but…. you know.

  • How about the PS1 game Future Cop LAPD?

  • How about the PS1 game Future Cop LAPD? Or The Original Road Rash?

  • I want to know is there any chance that Sega can put Saturn games on PSN? I loved Panzer Dragoon so much. I would so enjoy to be able to play Panzer Dragoon, Zwei & Saga again. I also would enjoy Burning Rangers too.

    Also is there any chance that Valkyria Chronicles III will come out in North America? I would even be fine with a port of the game to the Vita. I have enjoyed the last two games & I really want to play the next one too.

  • If ya’ll gonna add Dreamcast games most wanted would be Sonic Adventure 2 also WWF Royal Rumble gawd I loved that game.

  • Wheres My Sky’s Of Arcadia !!!????
    oooooohhh And almost forgot about shenmue 1 and 2 :-)

    Now those are classics So WHERE ARE they ?

  • Sega the Game list that comment #65 posted is what we Gamers Want start working on it Please !!!

  • Space Channel 5 already had a PS2 port.

    Why not port Zombie Revenge, Slave Zero, illbleed, Gundam 0079, Seventh Cross Evolution , Chu Chu Rocket, you know the really good Dreamcast games? Then again, this is SEGA we’re talking about. It’s like that company is allergic to making money.

  • From a fellow SEGA fan, appreciate the Dreamcast love !

  • Would love to see a discount on Valkyria Chronicles DLC again sometime.

  • How about bringing Guardian Heroes to the PSN!?

  • If this is REALLY happening…then Sega, bring us POWERtSTONE 1 & 2 double that up for a tuesday release.

  • OMG all these people are noobs,
    No one even mentioned:
    Alien Front Online
    Speed Devils Online
    The first true multiplayer games on any game platform….
    I would love to see these 2 games and would make all the people on my friends list buy them.

  • i was hoping to see sonic adventure 2, skies of arcadia, possibly sonic shuffle *ducks flying objects* and chu chu rocket

  • gah i completely forgot phantasy star online, *slaps self*,

  • Zombie’s Revenge was my first dreamcast game. I remember pulling the pipe out of the zombie guy in the beginning lol. I wish I had my dreamcast still. I also remember playing on the little memorycard thing that popped out of the controller and playing some type of zombies revenge game on it

  • Would love to see Jet Set Radio, graffiti, skates and awesome music what is not to love. Never played Shenmue but if it came on PSN I would buy it on a heart beat. Even though I know it won’t happen, I would love to see a new Altered Beast game.

  • why not sonic adventure 2??, it is a great game, you have already released the first one and is a great game to play as shadow (the ps2 one was horrible)

  • Jet Set Radio was spectacular, please bring that to the store and the Playstation Vita. I only played through it last year buying a used Dreamcast (a broken one I had to fix) and a used copy of the game. I would love to play it again on a portable and I would love to actually give the devs that created it a bit of moulah as well. They deserve it for making such a great title.

    Also, Please make another sega sale this christmas season! I bought a bunch of stuff last time!

  • remake the first phantasy star online that was the best action RPG dreamcast had and the best phantasy star online game made.

  • If you could release a Jet Set Radio + Future bundle that would be wonderful.

  • Pleaaaaaaaaaaaase SEGA bring these games to HD from you and name your price

    1.Guardian Heroes
    2.Spawn: In the demo’s hand (with online and offline MP)
    3.Maken X (i know that maybe no one remembers it , but it is real awesome classic)
    4.Shenmue 1 & 2
    5.Confidential Mission
    6.Skies of Arcadia (most enjoyable RPG to me)
    7.Sword of the berserk:Gut’s rage
    8.Virtual on.
    9.A complete Megadrive / Genesis games that includes:
    Shadow dancer,quackshot starring donald duck , aladdin, jungle book,GROWL (especially those are for me with anyprice), and more of course.

    please SEGA see our HIGH HOPES For Streets of RAGE 4

    PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE

  • Please, please, please, bring Jet Grind Radio to PSN I would buy it in a second, I still play it all the time (and if you could use your own music then you would have a smash hit)! Also Power Stone 1&2 and if possible Silver and Skys of Arcadia. Also Bizarres Metropolis Street Racer was a great game.

  • DAMN! Space Channel 2 HAS NO TROPHIES! How is this possible? Old genesis ports have´em. How do they make stupíd decisions like that when it is an standar?

  • It doesn’t?? Thanks for the heads-up, Ricopitote. Luckily I still have my original PS2 disc with the original Space Channel 5.

  • If sonic adventure 2 comes out for psn, that would be awesome, so please put SA2 on the psn with the SAB2 add-on

  • @ Ricopitote: for a while the trophies for crazy taxi werent showing on PSN, for some reason they wouldnt sync to the server, they did eventually though. maybe its a similar error, if not, oh well, wont really diminish my enjoyment

  • sonic adventures 2 battle and soul calibur 1 would be a good addition

  • This is cool but I’d rather have:
    – Sonic Adventure 2
    – San Francisco Rush 2049
    – Aerowings 2: Airstrike
    – Shenmue
    – MDK2

  • Virtua Tennis for Dreamcast, please! there’s ridiculous amounts of Dreamcast games that would fit at home on PSN, even possibilities for move games like House of the Dead 2.

  • I loved Space Channel 5! It’s one of my favorite games. I hope you guys decide to bring back other Dreamcast games. Jet Grind Radio is probably tied as my top fave with….pretty much a lot of others. XD I would also love to see Shenmue (of course!) and Sonic Shuffle.

  • Definitely getting Space Channel 5, used to play it back in the day and my kids love it!
