Gameplay

While the game can be played with the standard Dreamcast controller, it was designed to support the console's Fishing Controller. The game is single-player. [3]

Development

Sega Bass Fishing 2 was developed as a sequel to Sega Bass Fishing . Originally an arcade game, its Dreamcast port in 1999 had been unexpectedly successful. [3] [4]

Reception

Sega Bass Fishing 2 received generally favorable reviews, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. [5] Edge cited the game's emphasis on simulation over arcade elements as a downside, compared to the arcade style of the first one. [6] Conversely, GameSpot lauded the game as "a model example of what sequels should be." [3] However, Eric Bratcher of NextGen said that the game was "More realistic, but not more fun. This is easily Sega's deepest fishing title, but it's alternately too hard or too easy." [11] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 27 out of 40. [7] Four-Eyed Dragon of GamePro said, "The sequel to one of the best fishing games ever unfortunately delivers nothing but a fishy stench instead of a prize catch-of-the-day." [12] [b]
