The fact Moss has a Dreamcast option in the poll means absolutely nothing in my opinion. There is no chance of Raiden 4 being ported to Dreamcast.

Joystiq.com is too slow. I posted about this here five days ago:

Not without GD-Roms. We talked about this already in the Raiden IV thread.

I'm sure a 3rd party could create a GD-Rom equivalent or something else that could be read by a Dreamcast. Go back to your Raiden thread if you want.

Ah, you mean this. That'll rue the day!

The fact Moss put Dreamcast as option offers some hope but there isn't a bloody chance that this will see GD-ROM production. Furthermore, with Type X being a computer already it's likely to see a port to PC above all else [logically] (Raiden 2 got it, Raiden 3 got it, etc..) eventually. This adds to the point that earlier mentioned games like Dynamite Deka EX and Exzeal are both 'planned' for Naomi Rom boards basically dashes the GD dream. You want to be an optimist, go ahead. Stranger things have happened but more than likely it's the end of Sega licensed Dreamcast games and hence GD-ROM games too. :cry:

Was Karas the last shooter to come on DC?
Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?
