soulcalibur Arcade (1998) vs Dreamcast (1999) Comparison

[@davion4777]

Damn. I never really realized how much of an upgrade the Dreamcast version was. It was like a full generation jump from the Arcade. Absolutely incredible.

[@Beelzeboogie]

Damn you can really tell its the same engine as Tekken 3 in the arcade version.

[@Lucky_9705]

One of the rare cases where the console port is better than the arcade original

[@freakyfornash]

Which kind of ended up being the case beginning with the Dreamcast era onward.

Namco.made many upgrade games. Time crisis 2, crisis zone, tekken tag 1

Arcade version was built for Namco System 12. This was not some cutting edge expensive arcade board like Sega Naomi. It was a somewhat buffed version of original Playstation hardware. It was effectively four years old at this point. There was a hard limit to how good the game could look. Dreamcast was cutting edge graphics hardware in 1998, and a totally new generation. That's why the Dreamcast version ended up better than the arcade. If Namco had chosen to make Soul Calibur on System 23 then it would have looked a lot more advanced.

The Dreamcast version is practically a remake
