So you might of seen in the Decembers release thread I've started listed indie games for "dead" systems.
So just wondering if any of you have, had some indie games on dead systems or just a fan of them.
Personally I have a few Dreamcast games, and have had owned a few mega drive games which I have sold on for a substantial profit.
Also I have Pier Solar HD preordered for dreamcast, Put some Money towards Watermelons (Pier Solar guy's) Project Y which is a new mega drive game and I've put enough towards it to have my name in the credits.
And there Project N which is a new SNES game, not put so much towards this as I don't have a SNES but still want to see new games for it.
And preordered a game called LEONA's Tricky Adventures also for dreamcast but don't have clue when I will see it as the devs are working on REdux yet another dreamcast.

I've just watched Pier Solar HD running on a dreamcast it looks amazing. Even better it's using the VMU sod the VITA remote play and Wii U gamepad. As this you can take any where and play some sort of game.

Lizard looks pretty interesting, kinda reminds me of the Dizzy games. Thanks for sharing that list, mas.

That's only what's coming as there's load been over the years. Also that makes 6 dreamcast games over next 12 months that I know off (actually I know of 3 more but not sure what's happening with them including one I backed).
So from this I think the dreamcast might be more alive then things like ouya and stuff like that.

I find it odd/interesting that DC has become the home for vertical shmups.

Yeah it has hundreds of them even it's final days in Japan back in 2007 all it had was them.
Some are now silly money.

Radiant Slivergun on Saturn will always be the example of a silly money shmup to me.
