Dreamcast in Cab question
« on: December 06, 2005, 10:40:30 pm »
hey guys
just a general Q,
im looking @ investing in a Dreamcast to throw into my cab
the main games i wanna play are
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Sf3 etc etc
my question is......what i remember there are only 4 main buttons on a DC controller
yet 6 buttons are required fr those 2 games....last i heard that DC games are more or less direct ports of the Naomi games so am i able any way to use the other 2 buttons?

Dreamcast has  6-buttons. You forgot L and R on the back, bud. If you are to play SF3:3s get it on the PS2 or XBox, much better.

Yes.  There's no way you could play the games properly without 6 buttons.

Depends on what you define as "better".  Dreamcasts are cheaper, and have a great range of arcade titles.  Plus with native 15KHz and 31KHz RGB out, they are fantastic for cabinet conversions.
