There are currently few details on this Resident Evil-style game, which is confirmed as being in development for Dreamcast.

Akihabara Denno-Gumi Pata Pies
Sega
Um. Since we have no details about this title at all, your guess as to what it is will probably be just as good as ours. Actually, probably better, since we think it’s a simulation of a pie-eating contest in which the player takes control of a magical lardass fat bloke with an enormous appetite.

Akolyte
Ionos
We’re still digging for information about this little-known title.

Blue Stinger
Climax
This graphically outstanding action-RPG, not dissimilar in style to Resident Evil, is underway from Climax Studios. Check out the preview.

Interesting-sounding action adventure that's similar to RE4, but is set on a futuristic aircraft carrier.

Cho Hamaru Golf

Sega
Sega's latest racer will make an appearance on Dreamcast – with alleged improvements, including the original Daytona's Hornet race car and new tracks.

Dead or Alive 2
Tecmo
This should be an excellent translation of the top-notch fighting game, assuming Tecmo uses the awesome power of Dreamcast. Which is a pretty safe bet, one would think.

Digital Horse Racing Newspaper
Shouei Systems
Guess what this is! It’s one of those horse racing simulations that is much-beloved in Japan, but will probably never see the light of day in the states.

The lead programmer and lead artist of the Tomb Raider series have broken away from Core to form their own development group, and Galleon is their first title.

Like the baseball title, this is a management sim with tons of stats. Unlike the baseball game, however, the graphics are far more realistic, and it carries an official J-League license.

Atlus
Atlus' first Dreamcast offering comes in the form of a third-person action adventure game with odd Nazi-esque overtones.

Mah Jong
Kaga Tech/Naxat Soft
It’s a Mah Jong game.

Marvel vs. Capcom

It's side-on beat 'em up action in typical Capcom style as their ultimate fighting game hits Dreamcast. Hurrah!

MDK 2
Interplay
It's muder, death, kill all over again, but this time the action's not coming from Shiny – Bioware is taking the helm for this sequel.

Merukuriusu Pretty
NEC
This Japanese role-player is set in a bizarre fantasy world. There are no plans yet for a Western version, and maybe it'll never appear over here...

Metropolis
Bizarre Creations
The creator of Psygnosis' Formula 1 series is hard at work on Metropolis. It's a driving game with incredible physics and amazing graphics, according to a fellow we know who recently saw it. It will feature real cars, though there are no license details available yet.

Mortal Kombat 4 "Special"

No system’s software library would be complete without a version of Mortal Kombat, and Dreamcast is no exception. The latest episode in this long-running fighting series will appear in all its gory 3D glory, reportedly featuring characters and environments from the popular Mortal Kombat 2.

Monaco Grand Prix Racing Simulation

Ubi's Grand Prix racer is set for a winter launch in Japan. Featuring all of today's cars and tracks, as well as a Retro Mode that sports authentic 50's cars and courses from that era, this Dreamcast racer is looking very cool indeed.

Monster Breed
NEC
Raise your own monsters, save ‘em to VMS and take ‘em around your friends house and fight them against his.

NBA Action 2000
Sega
Basketball hits the new millennium with Sega's arcade-style game that should be a winner!

NFL Blitz 2000
Midway
Midway's excellent arcade football game is coming to Dreamcast. It should be even better than the coin-op, unless the programmers completely screw up the conversion. And why would they?

Nijiro Tenshi
Sega
No details have been released about this simulation as of yet. Indeed, we don’t even know what it’s a simulation of! Doh!

Monster Breed
Sega
Raise a monster, save it to VMS and take it around a friend's house and fight it against his own monsters. Sounds like fun? We certainly think so.

Ohzumo
Bottom Up
It’s a sumo wrestling game, for those of you who are interested.

Pop'n Music
Konami
Konami's chief arcade revenue source in Japan – dance and rhythm games – is fast becoming a console priority, and this is its latest such creation in the genre. Not quite Parappa, yet more elaborate than Beat Mania, this game is being targeted at the younger crowd with colorful graphics and cute characters.

Power Stone
Capcom
A first for Capcom – a fully-3D fighting game. It’s actually really cool because the fighting environments have multiple levels, and there are all sorts of objects that you can pick up and use to mash your opponent.

Puyo-Puyon
Compile
It’s actually Puyo-Puyo 4 (the first game was released in the states as Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine on Genesis), a strange, but highly addictive puzzle game that has a variety of multi-player modes.

Rayman 2
Ubi Soft
One of the most amazing-looking PC platformers yet is scheduled for release on Dreamcast. It should be one to watch for.

RealSound 2
WARP
WARP's second audio-only title is coming to Dreamcast, and this time the theme is one of fear, not love as in the Saturn original. Creator Kenji Eno has said that the only graphics in this game will be a gigantic blinking eyeball. Eek!

Red Dog
Argonaut
This fast-paced tank shoot ‘em up is well underway by English developers Argonaut, the guys who brought you Star Fox and Croc.

Sega Rally 2
Sega
Burn rubber in this conversion of Sega's popular racing game. As well as featuring all the tracks and cars of the arcade original, the title will sport new cars, new tracks, and a 10 year rally championship mode. Brilliant!

Shenmue
Sega
The mysterious Dreamcast title that Sega maestro Yu Suzuki is working on is none other than Virtua Fighter RPG. It’s still at a very, very early stage at the moment, with little more than a young Shun (the old drunken fighter bloke) wandering around some basic environments. Gameplay details are non-existent at the moment, but what we can confirm is that one level will be based on the Babylon Dreamcast demo.

Shienryu 2
Warashi
It’s a shooter, and that’s all we know.

Street Fighter III: Second Impact

Time Crisis 2
Namco
Namco's shooting coin-op is headed for Dreamcast, providing yet more evidence that a Dreamcast lightgun will be forthcoming.

To the North: White Illumination
Hudson
According to the materials we got from the Tokyo Game Show, this is a "travel communication". So now you know as much as we do.

Unreal
GT Interactive
The most impressive Quake-style game yet is coming to Dreamcast, and should be very close to an accelerated PC version. We wait and drool.

Virtua Fighter 3: Team Battle
Sega
The greatest fighting game series ever will make its debut simultaneously with the launch of Dreamcast, and will sport new moves and refinements over the arcade original. It incorporates a kind of tag-team mode in which you choose a team of three fighters and pit them against other players' teams over the net. Yeah!

Virtual On 2
Sega
This popular one-on-one robot fightin’ arcade game will make an excellent Dreamcast title, especially when you consider the multiplayer potential.

VR Baseball 2000
Interplay
Sega's already getting some competition in the sports field, in this case it's from Interplay's newly-renamed sports label and its latest baseball title. Expect this version to be hugely enhanced over the already-planned PlayStation and PC versions.

Warzone 2100
Pumpkin
This conversion of the PC realtime strategy game is being ported to Dreamcast with currently unspecified enhancements.

Whiplash 2
Interplay
Stunt car racing is the name of the sequel to last year's PC game, which features highly banked turns and corkscrew tracks. World Series 2000
Sega
It’s baseball, but with an arcade slant. And it should look absolutely fabulous, judging by previous Saturn iterations of this franchise.

Zombie Zone (formerly House of the Dead: Side Story)
Sega
This Naomi-based arcade machine features super-gory beat ‘em up action in which players kick the seven shades of crap out of hordes of zombies. Heads roll. Arms roll. Blood spatters. Sounds like a winner to us! The good news is that a souped-up Dreamcast version is expected to arrive late next year.
