Sonic Adventure 1 & 2
Shenmue 1 & 2 (pre-ported)
Quake and Unreal Tournament!
Resident Evil Code Veronica (pre Port)
And the fighters have to be mentioned as well as all the shooters

You're absoutely right, all fantastic reason to own a Dreamcast. But based on Doom's criteria: Sonic Adventure 1&2 were ported to Gamecube, Shenmue 2 to Xbox, Resident Evil Code: Veronica to Gamecube and Playstation 2 - all fantastic games but no longer Dreamcast exclusives.

At the time it was the only one to have all the SNK fighters. It wasn't until later in the PS2 and Xbox's life that they got all the KoF games (99-02).
Dreamcast was the only console to have:
Capcom vs. SNK
Marvel vs. Capcom
Soul Calibur
Darkstalkers Chronicle
Project Justice
IMO DoA 2 was better on the Dreamcast
Doom:
Come on guys. I wrote barely anything in my original post, and you still screw up. There are reasons to love the Dreamcast. None of them apply to me. Most of them do not apply in 2010.

Well its not practical now, the only reason you can own a dreamcast now is basically emulation and homebrew. As all the good stuff was ported over.
