Mate, a DC version of Among Us would be great. Someone could do a fan remake where everyone plays as Chao who can wear different animal parts and costumes XD Could likely pull the sprites from the Gameboy Advance Chao Gardens that went with the Gamecube's Sonic Adventure titles. Get that baby online with the DC Microphone and you've got DC gold!

I think Cyberpunk 2077 because.... :p Nahh just kidding. I actually think a version of Outrun 2 would be awesome, and Daytona USA 2 since that amazing game never made it out of the arcades. Still angry at the local arcade that had the full moving sit-in arcade units, they just pulled them randomly to put in some awful Deal or No Deal style multiplayer buzzer quiz game!

Okay, top 5 games I'd wanna see on DC?

1. Daytona USA 2
2. Outrun 2
3. Silent Hill
4. Super Monkey Ball/Monkey Ball 2
5. Timesplitters 2

Several Saturn titles would likely hold up well on DC, such as Panzer Dragoon Saga and the Shining Force 3 trilogy.

And if there were to be an update to a Saturn title (like a sequel) I'd want Fighters Megamix 2! This time with;
Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Robotnik (Sonic)
Hornet (Daytona USA)
Bruno Delinger, Jean Ivy (Dynamite Cop)
Ecco The Dolphin
Honey and a couple others (Fighting Vipers 2)
Jack (Headhunter)
G, Goldman, Zombie (House of the Dead)
Beat, Gum (Jet Set Radio)
NiGHTS
HuMAR (Phantasy Star Online)
Rent-A-Hero
Ryo Hazuki (Shenmue)
Ulala, Space Michael (Space Channel 5)
Toejam, Earl (Toejam and Earl 3)
Akira, Pai, Sarah and Jacky (Virtua Fighter 3tb)
That's a pretty good roster of DC specific Sega heroes (Toejam and Earl 3 was planned for the system, a playable BETA still exists). Considering they had great fighting pedigree on the Saturn, and the Dreamcast had several fighting titles of its own, Sega were mad not to have made a sequel to Megamix!

STREETS OF RAGE REMAKE IS A "MUST-BE" PORT, is a SEGA Saga, and a SEGA fan game after the lack of releases, but only available for PC.

Wow, that looks like a VERY promising way to "demake" Monkey Ball for the DC! :D
